TMZ.com
David Dobrik says he shouldn't be held responsible for injuries sustained by YouTuber in social media stunt gone wrong...claiming guy knew why he was committing.
The influencer has just responded to Jeff Wittek's lawsuit against him, with David claiming that Jeff knowingly assumed the risks of the stunt and that he cannot claim any compensation from David simply because he injured himself when he deviated.
TMZ broke the story...Jeff sued David in June for more than $10 million, claiming David should never have been at the controls of the massive excavator used in the stunt, which saw YouTubers being swung from a rope attached to the excavator.
Jeff says that when it was his turn, David started swinging it too quickly before suddenly slowing down, causing Wittek to slam into the side of the excavator, resulting in broken and fractured bones, as well as a torn ligament.
In his response to Jeff's lawsuit, David claims that Wittek knew how risky the stunt was and can't blame David for his injuries. David asks the judge to dismiss the complaint and award nothing to Jeff.
