Youthful Daredevil’s Deadly Drive: Young YouTuber’s Terrifying Texting-and-Driving Crash in Rain-Drenched McLaren

Influencer’s Daring, yet Dumb, Drives: A Crash Course in Reckless Behavior

As we dive into the latest videos of Jack Doherty, an influencer and streamer, it’s clear that his actions are a real-life cautionary tale of what not to do behind the wheel. With layers of new aggravating and idiotic behavior, it’s no wonder that his recent live-streaming attempt ended in a crash.

A Recipe for Disaster

Doherty was driving his sleek McLaren in the rain, checking his phone, and responding to viewers when he lost control and crashed into a guardrail. Thankfully, no one was seriously hurt, but Doherty was banned from his streaming platform, Kick, for violating safety terms.

Frustrating Factors

What makes this incident even more infuriating is that:

• Doherty was driving a powerful supercar, which demands attention on its own
• It was raining, making extra caution a must
• He was texting or doing something on his device
• He had his cameraman/passenger livestreaming the whole ordeal
• He continued to stream after the crash, asking a rescuer to record him being helped out of the window

A Continued Display of Irresponsibility

After the crash, Doherty continued to stream, complaining about the damage to his car while his passenger, Michael, was still in the mangled McLaren, bleeding from his head. Doherty even asked Michael to hold the phone and stream again, despite his clear injuries.

Kick’s Ban: A Necessary Move

It’s no surprise that Kick banned Doherty from its platform. Part of Kick’s community guidelines emphasize prioritizing safety and avoiding dangerous behavior. Clearly, Doherty failed to follow these guidelines and put himself and others at risk.

A Lesson Learned?

In a recent response on X, Doherty apologized for putting Michael through the ordeal, thanking first responders and those who helped them escape the car. It’s unclear if this apology is genuine, but it’s clear that Doherty learned a valuable lesson about responsible driving.
