It's obvious that these rumours surrounding Dr DisRespect car wreck and his death are baseless since the video is an old one which was clearly made by the Doc just for fun.

Meanwhile, Beahm recently made a comeback to live streaming after his exclusive multi-million contract with popular online streaming platform Twitch came to an end. As far as the suspension is concerned, Twitch hasn't released any proper statement detailing the exact reason behind the action taken. The leading live streaming platform had announced earlier that it will be issuing permanent suspensions to game streamers after there was some allegation of sexual abuse and harassment which involved a number of members on the platform. However, there haven't been any complaints that were publicly made about the Doc.
It was also claimed the contract termination was a result of Dr DisRespect, along with Shroud and Ninja, agreeing to be part of a Spotify-backed streaming service launch. However, it is not clear if this is actually true.
