Divisive social media influencer Andrew Tate has implicitly taunted climate activist Greta Thunberg on social media as he released a new video following his move from Romanian jail to house arrest.
Tate, 36, shared a short 20-second clip of him eating pizza and smoking a cigar on Twitter.
The video was viewed over four million times and was accompanied with a caption which said: “Do it. I don’t live in fear.”
The clip came after the Italian delicacy was previously suggested to have played a role in the former kickboxing world champion’s initial arrest.

ReutersAn unconfirmed social media theory claimed Tate’s location was revealed to police from a video featuring pizza boxes.
Tate, who faces human trafficking, rape and crime gang charges, was previously involved in a social media spat with the 17-year-old Swedish environmentalist.
In a post uploaded on December 30 last year, Thunberg said: “This is what happens when you don’t recycle your pizza boxes.”
The pair also exchanged separate messages on the public social media platform.
The self-proclaimed Top G said: “Hello Greta Thunberg I have 33 cars.
“My Bugatti has a w16 8.0L quad turbo. My TWO Ferrari 812 competizione have 6.5L v12s.
“This is just the start. Please provide your email address so I can send a complete list of my car collection and their respective enormous emissions.”
Thunberg replied: “Yes, please do enlighten me. Email me at smalld**kenergy@getalife.com.”
Tate was able to leave prison in Bucharest after he won an appeal against his jail detention on March 31.

None of the four have yet been formally charged in the police’s investigation.
The quartet all deny the allegations put against them.
However, a UK law firm is planning to launch civil legal action against Tate on behalf of three alleged victims.

Responding to the most recent allegations, Tate’s spokesperson said in a statement: “Andrew and his brother have recently been released from jail and they have not been formally charged with any crime.
“More so, previous attempts to accuse Andrew of similar fabricated crimes have been dismissed by criminal courts in the UK.
“Andrew Tate and his team are determined to clear his name and restore his reputation and will take immediate and decisive legal actions against defamation, slander and perverting the course of justice.”
