You could do this with any ICE car.

Hot exhaust and dry plants make fire.

Looks like the brakes might have been what lit the Ferrari off so maybe just don't drive in ridiculously flammable places like that.

Nope the van's engine caught fire too while it was parked and idling. Y'all need to learn to watch the video before commenting.

Well duh, the fire jumped from the Ferrari to the van. Fire irl works like it does in the sims.

We first visibly see fire inside the wheel and brakes get hot too. There isn't enough evidence in the video to make more than a guess but my point was that it's likely a fire would've started even without an ICE.

Vans also have brakes.

I did something like this once. Scrap cars in a field of someone we knew, cut a track into the grass and had a great time. Still have the piston end from a C1.

Watch his other videos. He knew what was going to happen.

Maybe not at that exact moment in that exact way, but that Ferrari was probably never meant to have a long life after he bought it.

I would not think that when someone publishes a video called "I bought a $400,000 Ferrari just to destroy it"

I've watched maybe 4 or 5 of his videos. There were a couple with him in a Hellcat with bug wagon wheels on it and I think he had his pickup either wagon wheels as well. But I know he's known for just trashing stuff. Seems utterly pointless but apparently that's what his audience wants.

Why would Ferrari even let him buy it? Aren't they super strict about what you do with them after you buy it?

That was the whole point. He's challenging Ferrari because they are well known for being litigious against people for using their own vehicles as they please.

I believe he bought it used because there's no way Ferrari would let him buy new.

He was definitely gonna trash it, but I bet he was hoping to get more content out of it lmao

If it didn't die this way it would have died another equally bad way.

I knew who this was as soon as I saw the cornfield. He definitely bought this Ferrari with the intention of thrashing it. I like how the van "accidentally" caught fire too.

What crops? It's an already harvested field

norbert 0 points 3 years ago

And farmers often burn harvested fields to kill off weeds and prep for seeding so there's a good chance he was just doing a farmer a favor and getting to make his content at the same time.

You… know how many weird, extremely toxic substances are in a modern car, right? Im pretty sure that’s not something you’d want going into the soil of a field that’s used for livestock feed, let alone human-oriented cereals or vegetables.

Lol, you know how many weird, extremely toxic substances farmers put on their fields? I'm pretty sure letting the rich YouTuber down the road joyride through your harvested field and then set a car on fire (that likely doesn't have much gas/fluids in it) isn't that big of a deal, unfortunately. Even if the farmer were worried about it, how much does it cost to take the top 1' off and put fresh soil down? Can't be more than a few grand in rural Amishville where this is.

Whistling Diesel has like 6m subscribers, this video has almost 4m views in 1 day. If you watch some of his videos he's definitely known to at least some of his neighbors, he caught one guy stealing a bunch of stuff lol. See the old guy that shows up in the truck and bullshits with them? That's probably the mayor or something lol, 0% chance this isn't staged/arranged/pre-approved/whatever.

It's possible the crop was corn for ethanol, in which case this is the circle of life

Worth noting that it's one of those pricks intentionally destroying expensive stuff for attention, so watching the video encourages him to do more stupid shit like this. If you're environmentally concious you might prefer just ignoring the video and pray that these idiots disappear somehow.

Perhaps by lighting themselves on fire?
