Jack has since been banned from streaming platform Kick for violating safety guidelines. Some believe this is related to the fact that he was seen reading the live chat section of his stream while driving just seconds before the accident.

Over 185,000 people reportedly watched the livestream at the time.

The social media influencer has already received backlash for apparently being more worried about his car than his injured friend.

Footage from the livestream shows Jack handing his camera to someone who came to his aid to film him being dragged out of the car window after the accident while repeatedly commenting on the condition of his car.

Meanwhile, his friend is covered in blood and holds onto his seemingly injured wrist while others comfort him.

He gained a large fan base consisting mostly of teenage boys with his pranks, stunts, and challenge videos, often filmed in public places, such as his “Floor is Lava” challenges at Walmart and Target.

His videos have drawn criticism as some believe his behavior is rude and vile and that his content mostly revolves around harassing and harassing people in public.

Jack has recently received backlash for allegedly upsetting people in order to provide engaging content, before hiding behind his security guards to prevent the people he provokes from touching him.

In some videos, he can be seen engaging with random strangers and having his security guard intervene as soon as the person appears to be retaliating.

He stands behind the security guard, who is much taller than him, and makes fun of the person by making comments like “What are you going to do?”

Earlier this year, Jack and his bodyguard Kane Kongg were served with legal documents and are being sued by a man who claimed he was beaten by Kongg – his legal name is Justin Goslee.

But his loyal followers find his actions hilarious and entertaining and vehemently defend and encourage his actions in comment sections and live chats

The car accident came ten months after Jack overturned a golf buggy while his girlfriend was in the passenger seat and posted the footage on his YouTube channel.
