20 year-old YouTuber crashes $200K McLaren in Miami while texting and driving during livestream

YouTube personality and Kick streamer Jack Doherty totaled his $200,000 McLaren supercar while live-streaming, reportedly texting and driving in the rain on a Miami highway. 

During the livestream, Doherty, 20, can be seen glancing down at his phone as he navigates the slippery road. Moments later, the young internet star loses control of his custom-painted vehicle, veering across the right lane and smashing into a guard rail.

The footage shows the screen going white after the collision, with Doherty and his cameraman groaning in pain. 

The two men struggle to exit the damaged car, one of them frantically shouting, "Open the door! Open the door!" Once out of the wreck, a now shirtless Doherty can be seen inspecting the damage and kicking his mangled McLaren twice in frustration. 

"All my money’s gone," he laments, listing the costly upgrades, including a custom exhaust system and a paintball-gun-splatter paint job.

Doherty had purchased the McLaren for $202,850.10 late last year. According to reports from Sportskeeda, about 185,000 viewers were tuned in to his Kick stream at the time of the accident. 

The social media star’s cameraman sustained minor injuries and was seen with blood dripping down his face, according to TMZ. Both men were taken to the hospital, where the cameraman received stitches.

Following the incident, Doherty has been banned from the Kick streaming platform.
