California Highway Patrol confirmed the fatal car accident took place on Thursday around 4:30 p.m., when Trevor Heitmann, known as “McSKillet” on Youtube, smashed his 2015 McLaren 650S head on into a 2010 Hyundai. Heitmann’s McLaren was traveling at almost 100 miles per hour as he drove south on a northbound carpool lane on the I-805 highway .
All three died at the scene of the accident, officials said. The San Diego Medical Examiner confirmed Heitmann died due to “blunt force trauma.”
