Popular but controversial online streamer Braden, known as 'Clavicular', has reportedly been banned from the streaming platform Kick. This action follows a deeply disturbing incident that occurred during one of his live broadcasts, which quickly ignited a firestorm across social media.
Viral Clips Spark Widespread Outrage
The controversy erupted after short video clips from the stream began circulating on platforms like X (formerly Twitter) and Reddit. One particularly alarming 23-second video showed an individual lying across the windshield of Clavicular's distinctive Tesla Cybertruck. An off-camera voice can be heard instructing him to start driving. Subsequently, the vehicle moves forward, with the footage suggesting the person was run over.
The rapid spread of this video led to immediate public backlash and concern for the individual's wellbeing. Shortly after the clips went viral, access to Clavicular's Kick channel was disabled. Viewers trying to visit his page were met with an error message stating the page could not be found. While Kick has not issued an official public statement, the timing strongly indicates the ban was a direct consequence of the livestream footage.
Streamer's Defense and Conflicting Claims
As speculation ran wild, another clip from the same livestream surfaced, providing Clavicular's side of the story. In this segment, he is seen speaking to someone in a reflective safety jacket. He passionately claims he acted out of fear and perceived danger. Clavicular asserted that his vehicle was being surrounded by individuals he believed were armed, stating that he could see what he thought were weapons through their clothing. He maintained that his vision was obstructed and he panicked.
Amid the chaos, an update was provided by an associate of top Kick star Adin Ross during a live broadcast. The associate claimed that the person involved in the incident was not dead. Adin Ross himself reacted to the update by questioning why viewers in his chat were responding negatively.
Aftermath and Ongoing Uncertainty
Ross later revealed he had spoken directly with Clavicular after the ban. He appeared to reassure the streamer and offered strategic advice. Ross suggested that Clavicular should immediately start recording and go live on Instagram, advising him to document everything but remain silent, avoiding any direct questions while the situation developed.
At this time, the full details remain murky. There has been no official confirmation from Kick regarding the specifics of the ban, nor have law enforcement authorities released any statement about the incident. The condition of the person allegedly struck by the vehicle is still unconfirmed by official sources.
The online community continues to watch closely as the story develops, awaiting clarity on the ban, the true sequence of events during the livestream, and the ultimate fallout for the controversial content creator.
