5:44 PM PT -- Kick ... one of his primary platforms ... confirms to TMZ that Jack Doherty has been banned following the crash.

"Kick does not condone illegal activity, which is why we swiftly took action and moved to ban this creator from the platform," the streamer told us.

JD got into a nasty car wreck while on a recent live stream ... and it appears the guy was texting while driving in the rain when it went down.

Here's the deal -- the 20-year-old internet personality was cruising down a slick Miami highway in his expensive whip Saturday morning while on the platform, Kick ... with the beginning of the now-viral moment showing him looking down at his phone while behind the wheel.

Doherty suddenly loses control of the vehicle, screaming as he smashes into a roadside railing -- and his cameraman in the passenger seat, who was capturing the whole thing, begins to moan in pain after the big hit.

There's a bit of panic heard as the camera gets knocked out -- and the aftermath eventually confirms just how bad the crash was.

His cameraman reportedly had some minor damage, with blood spotted on his face -- outlets claim the 2 were sent to the hospital, with the man behind the camera getting some stitches.

BTW, it seems Doherty has been catching heat ever since Saturday's wreck ... with many online pointing out Jack was more concerned about his McLaren than the dude that was with him.

He's since claimed he's banned from Kick since the near-fatal ordeal, too.

A popular social media influencer and OnlyFans model in Australia is finding out the hard way it's not cool to feed the wildlife for clicks ... and it may cost her some dough, 'cause it's apparently illegal there!

Here's the deal ... Jaylie Bonow posted a now-deleted vid of her feeding a chicken -- she claims it was cooked -- to a saltwater crocodile on the banks of the Russell River in Far North Queensland. Turns out ... that is a serious no-no Down Under, and now she's under investigation.

Of course, JB boasted about the experience on IG ... which backfired when it caught the attention of the Department of Environment, Science and Innovation (DESI), which confirmed she was under investigation for the bizarre clout chase stunt, according to Daily Mail.

The agency made it clear last month they were cracking down on people feeding crocs ... 'cause it's not just super dangerous -- it makes them more aggressive and less afraid of humans. She faces a fine of $2,580, per the agency.

Jaylie must know the situation is serious ... 'cause she has since posted a video apologizing ... and calling the dangerous feeding a "silly mistake."

JB is attempting to do something of a judo move with her ma culpa ... attempting to educate others on the law.

Bigfoot is buzzing again after a TikTok went viral this week, with non-believers pointing and laughing ... but one Ph.D. expert on the subject tells TMZ the joke is on them.

Here's the deal ... on Thursday, an apparent Bigfoot made its TikTok debut ... recorded just chilling against a tree in a wooded area of Lawton, about 3 hours from Oklahoma City. It was quickly dismissed as an obvious fake -- but it also piqued some legit new interest!

Dr. Jeffrey Meldrum, a professor of anatomy and anthropology at Idaho State University, tells TMZ Bigfoot finding such a popular foothold in pop culture is a double-edged sword … 'cause it does poke fun at those who truly are investigating its existence … but the silliness also encourages more people to ask questions.

It wasn't your typical first-class experience on an American Airlines flight when a man allegedly got into an altercation with the woman next to him -- and things escalated so fast, other passengers had to jump in to calm everything down.

The whole ordeal was caught on camera by another passenger ... you can hear one guy sternly telling the alleged aggressor to back off on the flight from Miami, Florida to Charlotte, North Carolina Wednesday -- warning him repeatedly to keep his hands off the woman, or he was gonna end up in cuffs.

You can hear people asking the woman if she’s okay before encouraging her to move to another seat. But, as she does, the guy starts claiming he was the one who was assaulted by her.

An apparent Bigfoot has made his (or her) inevitable TikTok debut ... and the footage is actually the best to date of a Sasquatch in the wild -- as opposed to a snack commercial.

Here's the big hairy deal ... a video posted Wednesday that has since gone viral shows what sure as hell seems to be a Bigfoot just chilling against a tree in a wooded area of Lawton, about 3 hours from Oklahoma City.

Pasadena's Pee Bandit saga has finally come to an end ... or so say the guys who believe they've fingered the offender responsible for leaving bottles of urine on a street for years.

Residents of Pasadena, California have noticed for the last 6 years that someone consistently leaves multiple bottles full of pee on top of a utility box on the side of one road ... prompting local man Derek Milton and his pal Grant Yansura to try to figure out the who, the what -- and most importantly -- the why of it all.

Yansura tells ABC7 ... "Stacks of them, you know, nine, 10, 11 bottles ... All different colors, shades -- from like an amber hue to more of a healthy, golden, lighter yellow. But some are really dark and concerning."

A Massachusetts State Trooper then located the suspected shooter, who fired at the trooper and fled on foot into traffic.

Edwin Castro's record-setting jackpot is staying in his hands -- a judge says the guy who accused Castro of stealing his Powerball ticket, doesn't have a case ... because he doesn't have the ticket in hand.

Jose Rivera had sued Edwin and the California State Lottery Commission claiming he had actually purchased the ticket that ended up being worth $2.04 billion. He alleged someone stole the ticket from him, and it somehow ended up in Castro's hands.

But, an L.A. County Judge has ruled, too bad, so sad ... essentially. According to the docs, obtained by TMZ, the judge said, "players are solely responsible for securing their Tickets against theft, loss, damage, or destruction" -- and, if Jose thought his ticket was stolen, he should've gone to cops.

It's a pretty distressing sight ... Hussain hops off his bike and makes a desperate dash into an open field, trying to escape this hefty beast -- but he didn’t stand a chance.
