A live stream turned into a social media firestorm this week after 19‑year‑old Kick streamer Braden “Clavicular” Peters was captured on video appearing to run over a person with his Tesla Cybertruck during a broadcast — sparking outrage, platform bans, and intense debate online.
What Happened?
On December 24, 2025, footage from Clavicular’s livestream began circulating widely on social platforms showing an individual lying in front of the windscreen of his Cybertruck.
As someone off‑camera urged him to “start driving,” the truck is seen moving forward over the person. In the clip, the streamer can be heard saying: “Is he dead? Hopefully.”
Shortly afterward, Clavicular’s Kick channel reportedly became inaccessible, with many interpreting the outage as a ban from the platform.
Livestream Reaction & Response
Following the viral incident:
-
Clavicular claimed he acted in self‑defence, saying people around the vehicle were “surrounding our car” and that he couldn’t see clearly — even alleging some were armed.
-
Fellow streamer Adin Ross contacted him by phone, urging him to keep recording while advising against making statements.
Online reactions have been intense, with some defending his actions as self‑defense and others condemning what they see as reckless and dangerous behavior caught live on camera.
Platform and Public Backlash
-
Kick reportedly banned Clavicular’s channel soon after the incident went viral, though the company has not issued an official explanation.

Condition of the Person Involved
Amid swirling speculation about the severity of the incident, an associate of Adin Ross stated that the person allegedly struck by the Cybertruck “is not dead,” offering some reassurance amid conflicting online reports.
What We Don’t Know

No official statement has been made by Clavicular himself addressing the incident in detail.

Law enforcement involvement or legal outcomes remain unclear at this stage.

Kick has not publicly confirmed the status of Clavicular’s channel or the reasons behind its removal.
