2012 and 2016 fire-walking injuries
In July 2012, the San Jose Mercury News published a story reporting that several people had been burned and hospitalized during one of Robbins’s fire-walking events on July 19, 2012. This story was picked up by other media outlets, including Fox News, The New York Times, and CNN.[30][31] Aspects of these reports were later challenged by Robbins himself along with some of the on-site medical professionals.[32][33]
On June 24, 2016, it was reported that “dozens were burned and required medical attention after attempting to walk on hot coals during a fire-walking event at a Tony Robbins seminar in Dallas, Texas”.[34] Several attendees were transported to medical facilities to treat burns, and a bus was used as a staging-area for between 30 and 40 people who were less seriously hurt.[34] A spokeswoman for the Robbins organization stated, “Someone unfamiliar with the process of the fire-walk called 911 reporting the need for emergency service vehicles […] there was no need for emergency personnel […] only 5 of 7,000 participants requested an examination beyond what was readily available on site.”[35] 2019 sexual harassment and abuse allegations

In May 2019, an investigation by BuzzFeed News detailed accusations against Robbins of his sexual harassment of fans and staff members, such as groping fans at events and exposing his genitals to his assistants. [36][37] Robbins denied the allegations and also stated, “I have been the target of a year-long investigation by BuzzFeed. Unfortunately, your organization has made it clear to my team that you intend to move forward with publishing an inaccurate, agenda-driven version of the past, pierced with falsehoods.”[38]
In November 2019, BuzzFeed News published a six-part article accusing Robbins of molesting a teenage girl during his time as a “star speaker” at SuperCamp, an elite summer camp in southern California. The article claims the events took place in 1985 when Robbins was 25, and that there were at least two eyewitnesses.[39] Other media outlets also reported on these allegations.[40] Robbins denied wrongdoing and filed suit on BuzzFeed News in Ireland. In response, BuzzFeed News said that they stand by their reporting and suggested that Robbins’s decision to file the summons in Ireland was an “abuse” of the Irish court.[41]
Robbins helped raise money for Operation Underground Railroad, a nonprofit organization that works with governments to fight against child trafficking and slavery with the assistance of former CIA, Navy SEALs, and Special operations operatives.[25]
