Streamer Clavicular, whose real name is Braden Peters, has been banned from streaming platform Kick after a deeply disturbing Christmas Eve livestream appeared to show him running over another person with his car. The incident occurred live on December 24, with viewers watching in real time as events unfolded.
During the broadcast, Peters was seen behind the wheel while an individual was positioned on the vehicle’s windshield. Moments later, he allegedly accelerated, striking the person as the car moved forward. The shocking sequence was captured in full on stream and was quickly clipped and circulated across social media platforms, where it drew widespread condemnation.
Audio from inside the car only intensified the backlash. According to TMZ, one passenger could be heard panicking in the immediate aftermath, while another made a remark that sparked particular outrage online, asking, “Is he dead? Hopefully.” The comment was widely criticized as callous and disturbing, with many viewers calling for immediate action from Kick.
The platform acted quickly, but questions remain about the stream
Kick has since issued a ban on Peters, citing violations of its platform policies. The clip continues to circulate online as discussions rage about accountability, streamer conduct, and the responsibilities platforms hold when real-world violence is broadcast live.
Kick removed Clavicular from the platform shortly after the clips went viral. The streaming service has not explained which exact policy he violated, but running someone over clearly breaks safety guidelines. However, many people are asking why the livestream was allowed to continue for so long before action was taken.
It’s also unclear why the livestream was allowed to continue for so long before action was taken. The delay in stopping the stream has raised concerns about platform moderation and safety protocols, especially given previous controversies involving live content on streaming platforms.
Peters posted an AI-generated image of himself in his Cybertruck running over the person. He captioned it “Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.” He has not apologized or explained what happened during the stream.
It is unclear if the person involved was seriously injured. Authorities have not confirmed if they are investigating the incident.
Kick and Peters have not responded to requests for comment. Clavicular’s account is now completely removed from the platform.
The ban comes as platforms face pressure to act faster against dangerous content. When streams show possible violence or assault, immediate action is necessary to prevent harm. The incident also raises questions about how much streamers earn and whether financial incentives contribute to increasingly risky content.
