Is this AI-generated? I can not put my finger on why, but it feels like it.
I think there is a little bit too much randomness going on in the video to be AI generated. Messy details from the real world that AI doesn’t add in, but too subtle to be the result of prompting.
Exactly what I thought when I opened it. Everything feels off in that video.
I’m sorry, where is the fucking engine?
With god
i was hungy :c

I hadn’t played since it came out really and played some for the first time again last month. My dedecution has been if it’s metal, you can plow through it, if it’s wood it’ll plow through you.
And then all the sudden a few objects will defy these assumptions and you wind up driving through a fence and find a metal rod turning you into a pretzel.
You can’t park there mate.
That was a BMW M440i (i recognize the wheels, color and slope of the back). It has a 386hp/398lb-ft turbocharged inline 6 with a mild hybrid system. BMW says it can do 0-60 in 4.3s, but independent tests have shown it can do 3.9-4.1s
Most likely this idiot used launch control in the parking structure wanting to show off and lost control, eating the pillar
That’s the same thought I had, that’s some incredible acceleration to have a crash like that inside a building.
Fun fact, not even the most powerful version of that car, that would be the M4 which can do under 3 seconds in the xDrive variant.
But it has enough tuning potential that you could get M4 performance out of the M440i no problem. B58 is considered to be the modern day equivalent of the Toyota 2JZ, to the point that even Toyota uses it in the modern Supras.
I’ve heard that the only thing slowing down cars now is tires. Like we can make motors or ICE hit the wall of material science in the rubber meeting the road.
Yeah, EVs can drive their tyres at the absolute limit of traction on launch.
It can do 60-0 even faster.
Within the length of its own hood apparently.
I love it when people know things
Must be why you left reddit. 😏
launch control
Today I Learned: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Launch_control_(automotive)
What the hell, that’s STOCK for a BMW M series?
That makes skateboards sound safe.
That’s been pretty common in high end performance cars for over a decade. Good for Darwin awards.
Fortunately it’s also noisy enough that you can IMMEDIATELY tell and get the fuck out of the way. EVs need to start making noise like that lol.
The Grand Tour did an absolutely hilarious take on it, even Clarkson agreed it’s stupid in street cars
Why would this even be present in a street legal vehicle?
Same reason Jeeps have more ground clearance and suspension travel than they need to operate on public roads. Some people use their vehicles for both transportation and recreation.
Money.
I sometimes wonder why the US even has a government.
Incidentally that’s a German car that’s sold worldwide with that feature. Japanese, American, Chinese, British and other cars have that feature too.
It did, once.
Before the dark times.
Before the Empire.

An artifact of more sensible times. Besides, without it how would we even know who our glorious leader was?
🙄🥺
Today, that guy learned as well.
Yeah, I saw some assuming he was drunk but it is just as likely that this guy made a split second decision and jumped on it thinking what could go wrong I’ve done it before and poof.
People don’t like to view vehicles as murder machines but they very much are. If raising the front end 40% increases the chance of death by 40% to pedestrians and the only benefis were “I like the way it looks” or in this case the car being designed to accelerate at speeds that arent comfortable or safe because “I think it can be fun sometimes” at the detriment of others is just poorly planned.
Sure the guy is at fault, but so is the company that manufactured it, and the government bodies that allowed it on public roads.
If someone wants to have a hobby playing with and racing cars, that’s fine; but they don’t belong in public areas.
The Americans should build their houses like this column, instead out of paper mache.
They have a hard time even affording the cheap paper mache shit they make them out of now.
I can’t imagine how much more eye watering the price would be if they were made like this.
Could that be because companies use the cheapest materials and labour to then sell the houses expensively and reap massive profits??
Yes it is pure greed and if you make it more expensive for them to do that then they will just gouge even harder to make up the difference in lost revenue.
What we should really do is tie all of the CEOs of those companies up to poles like this and run into them like this guy did that column and after a couple of years the problem would solve itself.
Well at least the old dipshit looks appropriately miserable. I give even odds on his insurance dropping him after this shit.
I’ve watched this video three times before seeing this post and I thought the guy was handcuffed and had a hood over his head for some reason. Thank you for pointing out that’s his head.
The old shithead, leaning on the rear tire, is lucky his fuck-up did not start a fire. Revoke his driver’s license permanently.
Because everyone knows cars won’t start unless you have a valid license right?
Very true - because taking away his license wouldn’t physically prevent him from operating a vehicle, we shouldn’t do it at all. Because incremental progress is for losers.
when the police revoked my MIL’s license in front of us, i’ll be honest i’ve never been more thankful for police. She knew she was a menace on the road and enjoyed it.
That day is probably coming, where you tap your license to start the car.
I used to work for a warehouse that had badge readers on the forklifts. You would “start” the forklift by tapping your badge to the reader. It would be no effort to add that to a car.
That pole is incredible
Thank you very much.
That’s what she said
shit. hit the pole at 50?
Looks more like 80+. That damage is WILD.
Yeah I was trying to estimate partly on the apparent size of the garage. It’s been a while since I drove a car that could take off if you didn’t pay attention
Mach 50 I think
What do you mean “may not buff out?” Slap some fresh paint on, and that pillar should be good as new!
That’s a lot of headlight fluid.
And zero blinker fluid as usual
OH NO ALL THE TRANS MISSION FLUID
we gotta get more fluid or the mission will burn out
I know it’s a parking garage and all, but you can’t park there mate.

Has some light cosmetic work but low miles and drives great!
No lowball offers!! I know what I got!
Did he hit the accelerator rather than the brake?
also crazy that he got going fast enough in a garage to do that much damage.
No, it appears he hit the break instead of the brake.
