Streamer Jack Doherty On Stream Crashes $300,000 McLaren
20-year-old American YouTuber and streamer, Jack Doherty, goes live on the platform Kick, and ends up crashing his newly purchased McLaren 570S. After all the two victims in the situation are the ones who died, and wiped out his car on a slippery road, while his Twitch account is walled off. The situation is somber and shows how dangerous it can be to drive while distracted, particularly when the weather also makes for unpredictable by its sleety nature.
Live Stream of McLaren Crash
Jack Doherty was live streaming on Kick while driving his $300,000 McLaren 570S. But he lost control of the vehicle when it hydroplaned on wet roads and slammed into a nearby barrier. During intercourse, the report states that Doherty was distracted by his phone as he read chat messages from people watching his live stream and listened to rap music.
The young streamer wailed, “NOOOOO….!!! seconds before his car ploughed into the wall. Luckily, Doherty and his cameraman Michael, who were both in the car at the time of the crash, walked away with only minor injuries. But a short time later, Michael was spotted with blood running down his head as he needed ‘stitches’ following the accident.
Kick Ban + Rules Abuse
After the crash, Doherty’s Kick account was shut down to which the platform cited the 13th rule on ‘Lawfulness,’ a guideline that states “make sure your content doesn’t violate any laws and terms of service,” highlighting “Do not endanger yourself or others, take proper precautions when you are doing something live.” Doherty clearly appeared to violate a rule against distracted driving KICK has in place.
The crash happened with the streamer viewing an audience of 185,000 viewers live at the time according to reports. These events unfold with Doherty continuing to film — something he even follows up the episode on by shooting their trip to hospital, where Michael is treated for his injuries.
McLaren Details and Aftermath
In fact, Doherty had bought the McLaren for around $202,850 in late 2023, a $24k premium over its original price. He had since personalized the car with a loud, paintball-flavored vinyl wrap and an aftermarket exhaust. But sadly, the car was left for dead.
The streamer and his cameraman were ultimately released from the hospital, but is a reminder of the dangers of distracted driving in conjunction with dangerous road conditions like rain.
