Hunter August Hancock, better known as MeatCanyon or Papa Meat, has been banned shaking in mid-December 2024. His latest Twitch ban halted the content creator's whimsical fundraising initiative to pay for his new warehouse.
MeatCanyon has gained notoriety on YouTube for its ingenious animated parodies of various media and celebrities with gruesome humor. He has almost eight million subscribers on the platform by the end of 2024. His Twitch content is usually much more casual and focuses mainly on gaming sessions. But such content also has a significant audience, as evidenced by the fact that MeanCanyon currently has around 214,000 followers on the Amazon-owned streaming service.

Dexerto reports that the content creator's streaming career hit a bit of a snag on Dec. 17 when his channel was banned from Twitch. The suspension came in the middle of a streaming marathon that saw MeatCanyon try to raise funds for a new warehouse. The strange initiative was originally envisioned as a one-day stream scheduled for December 13, but ended up being a multi-day affair. MeatCanyon last went live on Twitch on December 16th League of Legends.
MeatCanyon's Twitch ban is only temporary
The announcement that Twitch joined MeatCanyon's channel after the December 17th ban suggests that the ban is only temporary. As usual, the video service didn't publicly go into any details about the suspension, with its public announcement simply stating that MeatCanyon was banned for violating Twitch's community guidelines or terms of service.
MeatCanyon himself likely knows more about the situation, as the emails Twitch sends out to notify streamers of bans usually include explanations detailing the reasons for such decisions. And while content creators can obviously share this information with their fans, it's currently unclear if MeatCanyon plans to do so. He acknowledged the ban on December 17, but only as part of a two-word tweet expressing his disappointment. According to some social media speculation from her fans, the ban may be in response to one of MeatCanyon's producers showing her nipples during the December 16th live stream. The stream is also said to include some copyrighted music, another potential prohibited violation.
Looking at the slightly bigger picture, this is MeatCanyon's fourth Twitch ban since 2022, according to data compiled by StreamerBans. Each of his three previous account suspensions lasted just three days, indicating that they were issued for a minor infraction. It is currently unclear whether his Twitch fundraising initiative will resume after the ban is lifted.
