Virgin Active, a very popular chain of gym in South Africa, would have been better off without this kind of publicity. This video captured in Stellenbosch, a student town in the Western Cape region of South Africa, spread like wildfire on a national scale.

Banned for life
A gymmember was caught masturbating, hidden only by a towel while watching a young woman's kettlebell squat session. Another gym member noticed this disgusting act and proceeded to film the man, who was pretending to look at his cell phone. However, we're not sure who he was trying to fool since the video shows quite explicitly what he is doing.
Shocked by this scene, the person who was filming immediately posted the video to his Twitter account with the following message:
I want this man's face to go viral. This was at the Virgin Active in Stellenbosch. Absolutely abysmal behaviour.
The chain reacted immediately by expelling the member and banned him for life from all its gyms.
