Jeff Wittek's accident
Everything was going great with the friendship and partnership between Jeff, David Dobrik and the entire vlog squad, right up to June 2020, when they were filming a stunt in Utah. Unfortunately, Dobrik did not have the authorization to operate the excavator used in the stunt, and with Wittek being at the end of the rope when the excavator went on, he got hurt.
Why is Jeff mad at David Dobrik? The accident was so horrible that Wittek had nine skull injuries and fractured his left eye socket. If that was not enough, he tore the ligaments of his leg. He, however, continued to film Jeff's barbershop series and never addressed the injuries.
Are David and Jeff still friends?
In April 2021, the docuseries Don't try this at home was released after nearly ten months of speculation from the public. In this series, Wittek addressed the circumstances surrounding the injury and recovery from a near-fatal accident. He also explained how the incident affected his relationship with David.
In March 2022, the footage was leaked from an upcoming documentary by fellow YouTuber Casey Neistat. In an episode of Dobrik's Views podcast where David blamed Wittek for the accident, he expressed how he wanted Jeff to take up more responsibility. Wittek was the bigger person and quickly denied the allegations and refused to make an appearance on David's podcast. They are definitely not bros anymore.
