Clav Banned Again: YouTube Purges Two More Channels

Controversial influencer Clav has had two additional YouTube channels, @LiveWithClav and @ClavLooksmax, removed by the platform. This action follows the termination of his original YouTube account in November 2025. Clav announced the deletions on X (formerly Twitter) on Thursday, April 23, 2026, stating they occurred without warning and claimed his channels aimed to empower young men.

YouTube, however, stated that Clav's original account was removed for policy violations. The platform also cited its terms of service, which prohibit users from creating new channels after their accounts have been terminated. Clav is a polarizing figure known for promoting "looksmaxxing," a practice focused on improving appearance through various means, including the extreme "bone smashing" trend. This trend involves intentionally fracturing facial bones with the hope they will heal stronger.
