A video of the attack shows the man being quickly detained, and Schwarzenegger can be seen walking out of the convention centre moments later.
Later that same day (18 May), Schwarzenegger posted a video on Twitter of himself greeting fans in Sandton.

The former bodybuilder, who served as Governor of California between 2003 and 2011, established the Arnold Sports Festival – of which Arnold Classic Africa is part of – in 1989.
