French Kick streamer Jean Pormanove endured toxic ingestion, torture before livestream death
The online world is reeling after the sudden death of French streamer Raphael Graven, known widely as Jean Pormanove, who died at just 46 during a 10-day livestream marathon in his apartment in Contes, near Nice. The Kick stream, which had run for nearly 300 hours, ended abruptly when fellow participants realised Graven was unresponsive. A shocking end to a livestream marathon of Raphael Graven aka Jean Pormanove Videos circulating online show him lying motionless on a mattress as others woke up around him. Authorities have since confirmed that he died in his sleep, though prosecutors have ordered an autopsy to determine the exact cause of death. Reports of abuse and humiliation Graven's livestreams were infamous for their controversial 'abuse content,' a disturbing form of online entertainment where he was often subjected to humiliation for the amusement of viewers. Reports from French media claim his final stream involved 'ten days of torture, sleep deprivation, and ingestion of toxic products.' Previous footage of his content showed him being slapped, spat on, strangled, and pelted with objects. In a chilling message reportedly sent to his mother just days before his death, Graven admitted that he felt like he was being 'held hostage' by the streaming and confessed that he was 'fed up' with the relentless abuse. Outrage and grief Clara Chappaz, France's minister for digital affairs, condemned the incident as 'an absolute horror,' calling for stricter safeguards on livestreaming platforms. Police in Nice are also investigating allegations of deliberate violence against vulnerable people linked to content broadcast online. One of his fellow streamers, known as Naruto, urged fans not to circulate videos showing Graven unconscious, describing the loss as devastating for his community. Kick under fire Kick, the streaming platform where Graven amassed more than a million followers, has faced fierce backlash in the wake of his death. While its terms of service prohibit violent and harmful content, critics argue that its lax regulation enabled such extreme broadcasts to continue unchecked. A spokesperson for Kick has said the platform is now urgently reviewing its community guidelines. Community response Global figures have also responded. Rapper Drake and American streamer Adin Ross, both ambassadors for Kick, pledged to cover Graven's funeral costs, saying it was the least they could do for his grieving family. Jean Pormanove's death has raised painful questions about the dark side of online fame, the ethics of 'humiliation entertainment,' and the dangerous culture of unregulated streaming.
