While most people would be pretty stressed out if a car smashed into the back of them, this guy seemed some-what happy about it.
A Kick streamer who goes by CarSnob on the social media platform was filming a livestream from his car when an unexpected incident occurred.
The guy was stationary at the time, when you hear the loud revving of another vehicle.
During the livestream, viewers will have seen what appears to be a car flip over behind the Kick streamer before it crashes into his vehicle and smashing his back window into pieces.

I'd have personally cried at the ordeal, but CarSnob's initial reaction left people floored.
"That's a clip," he said excitedly.
"Clip it! That dude just rolled in. Clip it! My rear window is f**ked. My car's totaled. My car is still on. Clip it, I didn't even sip my cold brew. I got that on stream."
The clip in question has since been doing the rounds online, with people taking to Twitter to share their thoughts on CarSnob's reaction.
"The thought of clout brought a smile to his face in that moment... sad," one person wrote on Twitter.
"Worrying about a clip instead of his life is crazy," echoed a different social media user.
A third went on: "He’s so excited his car got wrecked. I’d be pissed lol."
"There's no way the first thing to come out of his mouth was 'WOW THATS A CLIP'," someone else wrote, as another said: "Car gets rear-ended and the first thing on his mind is going viral."
But others saw the good side of things, noting that he'll likely be able to give the video to his insurer.
One person pointed out: "To be fair, that clip is probably going to be seen by his insurance company."
"Bruh he needed that sh*t for insurance," agreed another.
Someone else said: That’s evidence. That’s what that is."
CarSnob has since commented further on the ordeal and recalled the moment leading up to the crash.
"I hear something, even though I am playing music, I got the window down," he said, as per Sportskeeda.
"I turned it down to talk and then I really turned it down because I heard scraping, or really loud banging, and then I looked behind me, it was all on stream."
He also shared an image of his blue car completely crumpled at the back and the window shattered, while the other vehicle appeared almost unscathed.
