How did it happen?

What’s the first thing you do when you get into a car accident? What about being in the hospital next? Of course, videotaping the whole thing and immediately posting it on social media was probably what Jack Doherty was thinking. Therefore, now we have detailed footage of the events from the moment of the accident and the first seconds after the accident to the moment of hospitalization, when the blogger and his friends did not take away their smartphones even during medical assistance. The Vice article shows.

In addition, Doherty is known for his pranks: he previously had his driver get into a police car (and this later got into one of the videos on YouTube), his bodyguard hit one of the friends of another blogger, Corinna Kopf. and in 2022 he fought the same bandit nicknamed N3on. In 2023, steamer Natalia Reynolds accused him of using manipulation and grooming to persuade some OnlyFans creators to sign contracts with her; one of them was 17, which caused him to wait until his 18th birthday. A similar accusation was made by N3on himself: According to him, he deliberately gave the girls too much alcohol to force them to sign contracts.

We’ll never know if this was a deliberate design for another video already posted on his channel, which garnered more likes than any of the videos he’d posted in the last four months.

The 20-year-old phenomenon, who has approximately 15 million followers, bought this McLaren last year. On October 5, he was driving with another person who participated in the video and recorded the entire thing on camera.

Later, another video appeared on the network showing what happened immediately after the accident, since a certain section was missing in the above recording. Other drivers who passed and stopped to help can be seen running towards the crashed McLaren. Doherty asks one of them to quickly break the window as smoke builds up inside the cabin. He is pulled out of the car, inspects the damage, and then wonders if his friend is okay. Meanwhile, he never stops filming both himself and the car.

This whole situation gave rise to a huge wave of controversy. Users mostly criticized Doherty for using a smartphone while driving. This failed to reach the moderators of the streaming service on which the accident was broadcast. Reportedly Kick suspended Dougherty’s account, saying it “does not condone illegal activity”.

This isn’t Doherty’s first experience with car accidents. He had previously hit a golf cart and an SUV. Video recordings of both events were, of course, published on the Internet.
