first That Mbox used to speed around Times Square in New York City, and he didn’t know it would change his life.
He had slipped into his friend’s car, who was called Squeeze or Squeeze.Benz online, Mbox said 21 and was set off early in the morning to drive. The two have only one camera, squeezing the shared desire of BMW and “transmitting risks”.
this video They ended up filming that night, showing them running red lights, narrowly avoiding scratches with other cars, making donuts at intersections, and even driving backwards on a one-way street on highways. After being posted to YouTube last year, the video has been viewed more than 11 million times. It seems their brand is rising – at least until the NYPD is involved.
On May 21, Kaz Daughtry, deputy operation commissioner for the department Proudly released On X, NYPD was detained “Squeeze.Benz”. Authorities listed his reckless driving, including shocking police. But when the New York Police Department (NYPD) charged Antonio Ginestri, then 19, and linked to a social media account in a report from the New York Post, the crime was a third-degree attack, law enforcement It was said that this was caused by an unrelated incident a few months ago. “One of New York City’s most prolific street racers no longer treats the Big Apple like the Indy 500,” Daughtry claimed.
There is only one problem: Mbox swears the NYPD to squeeze the wrong guy into a squeeze.
“I don’t even want to be too much, but that’s the other people. They don’t have a real squeeze. (Mbox, like other YouTubers’ contacts about this story, refuses to provide any identification details.) “The real squeeze is Next to me – he was not publicly identified. ”
Aside from one thing, it’s easy to write it all as a bunch of high-speed influencers of brave men: three months after Ginestri’s arrest, he was still in custody, and in September, during his detention, emerged A new video.

It shows footage of several cars – allegedly powered by squeezes – dragged and made donuts in the center of Columbus Circle and Times Square, surrounded by pedestrians who barely missed their fleet of cars.

Mbox and Squeeze gathered a huge fan base of car enthusiasts and adrenaline fans and set the scene for YouTube’s most dangerous new niche: “Swimmers” weave traffic at amazing speeds.
This trend, driven in part by the bait of internet influence and social media reputation, has become the focus of the NYPD, which seems determined to eliminate. Now, drivers swear they have plans to have drivers with legal plans – before being arrested or worse.
