Ashton Hall did not stick around to find out whether he was really under attack after being confronted in the United Kingdom.
The fitness influencer and bodybuilder had a humbling experience in London that saw him resort to a hasty retreat, much to the amusement of users on X. Hall was approached by a very rowdy male known as Modeen, who is part of a group known for aggressive behavior and took off, borrowing a bike from a stranger to make his getaway.
Hall would later explain what happened, noting he didn’t know whether Modeen had weapons or who he had with him, and just wanted to get home safe.
“I ain’t trying to be the big, bad wolf,” he said. “We don’t have to throw hands, we don’t have to scrap. You can be the guy here, because I’m just gonna get home safe.”
