YouTuber with Millions of Subscribers Gets Backlash for Texting While Driving Before Violent Miami Crash.

By Leesfield & Partners

Jack Doherty, a YouTuber with over 14 million subscribers, is under fire for allegedly texting while driving before violently crashing his McLaren 570S over the weekend in Miami.

The crash, live-streamed in a since-deleted video on Kick, shows the 20-year-old looking down at his phone while rain poured down on the Florida Turnpike.

The video was later re-posted to other social media platforms showing the car begin to skid while he desperately attempts to regain control before going blank. The next clip shows his totaled car and at least one other person, a passenger in the car at the time, with a bleeding head wound. Thankfully, no other cars seemed to have been involved in the crash and Doherty did not appear to be injured.
