Looksmaxxing influencer Clavicular was wrestled to the ground and warned he was under a “citizen’s arrest” in shocking viral footage of an alleged altercation in Miami.
A 5-minute video posted by his friend Drago on Friday, July 24, seemingly showed Clavicular (real name Braden Eric Peters) and his pal involved in a scuffle with security workers or bodyguards outside Miami’s City Hall. TMZ reported that the confrontation arose after Clavicular and his friends had a disagreement with other people inside a nearby nightclub.
The footage begins with Clavicular seemingly grappling with a guard before he’s tackled to the asphalt and placed in a headlock.
“You’re under a citizen’s arrest,” the guard shouts at Clavicular.
Clavicular’s friend repeatedly tries to intervene but he’s held at bay by another guard. All four men get physically entangled even though the guard maintains his grip on Clavicular through it all.
At one point, the video shows Clavicular complaining that he is having trouble breathing with the guard’s arm locked around his throat. Police arrived on the scene to separate the parties around three minutes after Clavicular first grappled with the guard.
The video ends with Clavicular sitting in the back of a squad car, though TMZ reported that there is no record of Clavicular having been arrested.
Us has reached out to the Miami-Dade Police Department for clarification on Clavicular’s legal status.

Shortly after the incident, Clavicular tweeted, “Drago is my right hand man, absolute legend. W Drago.”
Clavicular responded on Saturday, July 25, when fellow manosphere influencer HSTikkyTokky mocked him for “getting chokemaxxed by an old age pensioner [and] taking it like a good boy.”
“Id like to anyone hating to try to have the leverage required to wrestle while wearing 3 inches of height inserts. We arent playing the same game,” Clavicular quipped.
In March, Clavicular was arrested in Fort Lauderdale and charged with misdemeanor battery due to his alleged involvement in a fight between girlfriend, Violet Marie Lentz, and Jenny Popach. At the time, he posted a $1,000 bond and was released from the Broward County Jail.
Us confirmed on April 14 that Clavicular “suffered a suspected overdose” during a livestream and was hospitalized.
Looksmaxxing influencer Clavicular confirmed that his two YouTube channels have been shut down. “Very sad news this morning. My YouTube channels @ LiveWithClav & @ ClavLooksmax were terminated this morning with no warning or explanation,” the 20-year-old internet personality wrote via X on Thursday, April 23. “The channels consisted of livestream VODs and free courses […]
“That was brutal,” he later wrote via X. “All of the substances are just a cope trying to feel neurotypical while being in public, but obviously that isn’t a real solution.”
He has since claimed on the “Hang Out with Sean Hannity” podcast that he passed out because he “literally had not eaten that day, consumed too much alcohol, and [was] just knocked out a little bit.”
“People are acting like they’ve never passed out from drinking a little too much at 20 years old,” Clavicular insisted. “It happens literally all the time in college. It wasn’t a big thing.”
