An influencer who went viral after crashing his luxury car is now asking his fans for donations.
YouTuber Jack Doherty, who reportedly turns 21 today, is known for performing stunts and pranks during live streams.
He went viral after filming himself driving down a dual carriageway in Miami, US, and totalling his custom £230,000 McLaren 570S on Sunday (6 October).

It has been reported that Jack managed to get out the car unharmed but his friend, Michael David, who was sitting in the passenger seat, was taken to hospital.
Jack, who has millions of followers, has now turned to his audience for assistance, as reported by What’s The Jam.
Having since reportedly been banned or removed from the streaming platform Kick, the influencer has taken to TikTok instead.
“Everyone double tap the screen let’s get a million likes guys, see how fast you can hit it,” Jack says in the clip, captured Monday 7 October around 9pm.
“I’m gonna follow everyone back I appreciate it.”
