A YouTube content creator was arrested for crashing a plane. Trevor Jacob is best known for his adrenaline-pumping YouTube videos, where he's done terrifying stunts like snowboard jumping near a freight train and hitchhiking in a semi truck. He's gotten into some form of trouble for his stunts in the past, and the plane incident is the latest among his string of court cases.

According to a statement released by the United States Attorney's Office for the District of California, Jacob pleaded guilty to a felony charge for obstructing a federal investigation by deliberately destroying the wreckage of the airplane that he intentionally crashed to gain views. His pilot license was also revoked by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) in April last year. A plea agreement was filed in the United States District Court in Los Angeles, and he is expected to appear in court in the coming weeks. If found guilty, Jacob might face a maximum sentence of 20 years in federal prison, potentially joining the list of YouTubers who have been to prison.

As of writing, Jacob's YouTube video has been receiving many angry comments from people who heard about his arrest. The majority of them expressed their disappointment towards his actions, criticizing him for potentially putting others in danger just to garner millions of views.

It's not unusual to see wild stunts posted on YouTube, but sometimes they lead to trouble because of how careless some creators can be toward others for the sake of clicks. For instance, a Twitch streamer was banned after accidentally shooting a crossbow at his camera man. It just shows that some actions have serious consequences, and Jacob's arrest is no different.
