On Monday, a German actor and director was a guest on the Twitch streamer Max “HandOfBlood” Knabe’s stream. The filmmaker promoted his new movie “Das Kanu des Manitu”, played a game with him, and experienced the full Twitch experience immediately.
Who was on HandOfBlood’s stream? The German actor and director Michael “Bully” Herbig was a guest on Twitch streamer HandOfBlood on Monday. He was promoting his new movie “Das Kanu des Manitu”, which is coming to German cinemas soon.
Michael Bully Herbig produced the most successful German film to date in 2001: “Der Schuh des Manitu”, a parody of the films about Winnetou and Old Shatterhand. According to Deutschlandfunk, it has consistently held the top spot since its release 25 years ago with over 11.7 million visitors. For many, this film is a piece of their childhood.
In the first few minutes of the joint Twitch stream with HandOfBlood, Bully got to experience the full Twitch experience right away.
HandOfBlood Has to Discipline His Chat
How is Bully insulted? The first few minutes and impressions of the Twitch stream are quite a lot for the director and he asks HandOfBlood to explain everything. HandOfBlood is just about to explain when a Twitch alert is triggered by the chat. The text “Bully, lick eggs” is read out by an AI-generated voice.
Bully reacts surprised, HandOfBlood laughs but also simultaneously reprimands his viewers: “Hey, friends!” The Twitch streamer explains to Bully: “There is a love-hate relationship between them and me.”

Later in the stream, the two play a canoe game together, in which the director performs skillfully. Of course, Bully also talks about his new film and how it was made. After about an hour, HandOfBlood said goodbye to Bully and continued with the program in his Twitch stream.
HandOfBlood is angry with his viewers: After Bully said goodbye, HandOfBlood took another look at his viewers and how they treated the director in the first few minutes: “Guys, we need to talk. He sits here for 5 minutes, and the first text-to-speech is: ‘Bully, lick eggs.’ That’s abuse of power, what you’re doing. That’s so sick, really. How can you be like this?” (via twitch.tv).
