Popular Streamer IShowSpeed Has Been Temporarily Banned From YouTube For "Dangerous Activities" After Jumping Over Two Supercars On Stream

I never really write about streamers on here because they couldn't be harder to explain to an older audience. Dave got invited on two of the biggest streams on the planet and he declined both because he thinks he's gonna be sitting there watching Smitty play Fortnite like a bot for hours. It's the most Gen Z thing there is. But let me try this time. A few weeks ago, one of the biggest streamers on the planet who legitimately has hundreds of thousands of people watching him every time he's live posted a video of him jumping over his custom Ronaldo-wrapped Lamborghini: 

This of course, could easily be edited, a la Kobe car jump that was 14 years ago before anyone and everyone could edit clips:

So in very natural selection form, he decided to one up himself, this time jumping over two cars, on a live stream which can't be altered no matter how much you believe in AI:

Why someone worth millions of dollars and one of the biggest personalities on the Internet would do something like this is beside you or me, but in the world of numbies, anything goes. The only people not impressed of course, was a company with some ounce of liability for streaming it live on their platform if something did go wrong. I don't know how much money someone like Speed generates for YouTube, but the answer is easily above the 8 figure mark. Look at the views on every single stream he does:

Streamers are all basically competing for the "Streamer of the Year" which is given to the streamer who has the best quality of streams year over year. It's basically a two man race between Speed and Kai Cenat, of Sundae Conversation fame who has won it three years in a row:

So I'm not sure what else Speed could possibly do to try and win it other than continue to do extremely stupid stuff like this in the name of views, so maybe Dave was right on his analysis of content in the year of our Lord 2024:

In the meantime, someone please get Smitty that $5,000 gaming computer he wanted so Barstool can get a piece of the pie.
