In front of shocked onlookers, a car influencer and YouTuber from New York died Wednesday morning after he crashed his customized BMW in a street race on a Queens motorway.
Just after 1 a.m., Bronx native Andre Beadle, also known on social media as “1Stockf30,” lost control and crashed into a light post while traveling east at a “high rate of speed” on the Nassau Expressway close to JFK Airport, the NYPD told The Post.
Beadle, 25, was speeding down the road in the left lane when he abruptly drifted into the right shoulder and collided with the metal pole.
With over 233,000 Instagram followers, the influencer was ejected from his purple 2023 BMW M240.
According to authorities, Beadle was taken by first responders to Jamaica Hospital Medical Center, where they declared him dead.
As shocked onlookers rushed to the wrecked vehicle, footage shared on social media showed Beadle losing control and running off the road.
Traffic remained at a crawl after the incident, and video on the CitizenApp showed police officials at the scene examining debris, including a tire, beneath an overpass.
Just two weeks before to his death, Beadle boasted about the incredible speeds his automobile could reach on YouTube, where he has 58,700 members.
Beadle lost control and crashed while racing on the Nassau Expressway.
According to a video he uploaded to Instagram, the automobile took 3.08 seconds to go from 60 to 100 mph and 2.97 seconds to go from 100 to 150 mph.
The caption for the photo said, “It’s just a BMW.”
Beadle posted a video on YouTube of himself and his pals working on the now-totaled car just hours before he passed away.
The BMW was seen traveling west on the Nassau Expressway toward the scene of his eventual disaster, giving his last video a spooky ending.
The crash scene is being investigated by police on Wednesday.
