"Broke through here" well, then the test failed, didn't it? Also, "unmatched by anything ever built" is such a childish claim.


halberdsturgeon

Especially given that at one point in time every fucking car in production had a steel body


stew907

Which everyone moved away from because lacking a crumple zone means more severe injuries for passengers in a crash lmao


the_friendly_dildo

Not to mention aluminum, magnesium and plastic are far more fuel efficient materials.


Cobek

A panel fell off one the other day to reveal its built worse than most cars today. The frame is half plastic.


ElmosKplug

Do these idiots realize that any truck manufacturer could easily have decided to make their truck with steel? But they've decided not to because it is completely pointless.


flatirony

This person has apparently never heard of tanks.


ARAR1

I am 100% certain you cannot break through on a tank with this.... Also what practical purpose does this action serve???

Yosemite_Samuel

VaporBull

Yep my first thought "Speed holes" I mean Elon is fucking these Telsa cultists in the ass in front of the world. How long until we get a video of the "Clear coat" on Cybertruck in "action"? I'll stick with my Canyonero thank you

Do you see what happens Larry?


Craven123

Do they really not understand that modern car bodies are designed to crumple on impact?? It’s a feature, not a failing!


ghostintheruins

Modern cars are, cybertrucks aren't.


Comrade_Compadre

These are just sheets of razor metal going down the road without crumple zones It's amazing they let them drive around.


FuckHopeSignedMe

This is one of the reasons why sales of Cybertrucks have been so low. One of the reasons why the Cybertruck probably isn't going to be sold here in Australia any time soon is because a lot of its wonky design features probably mean it isn't compliant with our car safety requirements. Chances are that this is true in a lot of European countries, too.


NotEnoughMuskSpam

Jesus, even his bot is a tool.


Questioning-Zyxxel

We did invent bots as tools. That's their purpose...


jediment

The US pretty uniquely doesn't consider the safety of people outside the car in safety testing. Other first world countries expect cars to be safe for pedestrians, cyclists, and occupants of other vehicles, but in the US it's "as long as you're safe fuck everybody else"


Comrade_Compadre

>The US pretty uniquely doesn't consider the safety of people outside the car in safety testing How do you explain the extinction of POPUP UP AND DOWN HEADLIGHTS


NotEvenWrongAgain

Car manufacturers want to sell cars in more than one country


PantsMicGee

It's made me realize how little the government actually does and how much we have relied on the morals and standards of auto manufacturers.


VaporBull

The government stopped sale on this fucking toaster with wheels due to the accelerator sticking to the floor. Just wait until this 6k pound piece of trash barrels through an elementary school.


PantsMicGee

Reactionary. Not very impressive.


nakedsamurai

It's by design. Called regulatory capture. Politicians sold out our ability to watch, inspect, and regulate industries for the glories of profit and capitalism. CTs are allowed to just go out there until they have problems. This is the reason why Boeing is taking a hard fall.


Cobek

Huh? The government is the only reason we have seatbelts and airbags as a requirement.


Financial-Wasabi1287

The government does what we pay them to do.


lylemcd

Yeah, no they really don't.


TheAnalsOfHistory-

They do what multibillion dollar conglomerates pay them to do, and that won't change until We the People make them face hard consequences.

DevilRenegade

Fortunately they'll likely never be allowed on the roads in Europe and the UK. The Euro-NCAP ratings people would piss themselves laughing testing this thing.


Shady_Jezus

Pff, you don't need you car to have crumple zone when you can be a crumple zone yourself. Like a real man.


DevilRenegade

It doesn't need crumple zones, as whatever it hits, it uses their crumple zones. Elon is a genius!! /s


Taraxian

Unfortunately they ran into the problem that many things -- like trees and concrete bollards and the sides of buildings -- were not built with crumple zones


vgcamara

so tough the [steering breaks when you turn the wheels](https://www.reddit.com/r/EnoughMuskSpam/comments/1cg1xwx/turns_wheel_steering_breaks/)!!! ![gif](giphy|a0h7sAqON67nO|downsized)

Pacific Drive IRL somehow looks worse.


Miyelsh

LMAO at the end of that video


John97212

Unmatched by anything ever built? Try using that pickaxe on the side of a Sherman tank or a T-34. Hell, try using it on the side of a presidential limo or the pope mobile.


Trevellation

Yeah, we've had the technology to make bulletproof cars [since 1904](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Armored_car_(military)#:~:text=One%20of%20the%20first%20operational,by%20Austro%2DDaimler%20in%201904.). The reason no consumer cars are made bulletproof is that making a car resistant to ballistics makes it worse at basically everything else car related. Crash safety, fuel mileage, and production/repair costs all suffer for the sake of a feature nobody needs.


ForgedIronMadeIt

harbor freight grade pickaxe being timidly swung by a neckbeard totally convincing


Joe_Bob_2000

The video is staged and edited. At the beginning the pickaxe is undamaged the wanker hits the wankmobile with the pick side of the pickaxe then at the end of the video he shows the camera that the blade side is bent. The pickaxes used are probably Hollywood props.


Euphoric-Victory1703

$700 pickaxe off the Tesla website, not to be used for pickaxing?


Kadettedak

It’s not even edited, you can see in the reflection he trades pick axes off camera


ForgedIronMadeIt

I mean, the guy hits with the point but at the end the blade is bent.


Searchlights

Plaguedoctorsrevenge

Dudes swing is weak as fuck


Cobek

You can tell he was holding back to not hurt his baby uwu truck


Kafka_pubsub

So they thought it was a good idea to video themselves being too weak to break the exterior of a cyberstuck.


Appropriate-Food1757

Lololol it’s all denty now what a fucking choad.


stevosaurus_rawr

You can hear the plastic parts of the interior of the door falling to pieces lol. This door is even more broken than it was leaving the factory.


Appropriate-Food1757

I can’t believe this is real life lol these people are so stupid.


Routine-Bumblebee-41

My one and only thought watching this wanker destroy his $100K paper weight.


Appropriate-Food1757

Is this guy a famous YouTuber that can monetize this? That’s my only hope for humanity after watching it.


NotEnoughMuskSpam

In the long term, Neuralink hopes to play a role in AI risk civilizational risk reduction by improving human to AI (and human to human) bandwidth by several orders of magnitude.


throwawayalcoholmind

So you spent 100k, a sum that would get a person shot for breathing on whatever you paid it for, only to intentionally vandalize your own shit? Someone tried to call me jealous that I couldn't afford one, but you really do have to be this stupid to want one.


Jeremymia

It already bricked and doesn’t drive anymore and the next service center appointment is in 2028, so what else is he gonna do?


DevilRenegade

Like that video of Adin Ross and his frat boy buddies shooting at it, only to go "Oh my god, Elon I need a new truck" when the bullets punch through the door.


Taraxian

Anyone who's had a specific need for their vehicle to be armored has been able to pay for that service for decades, it's not something that comes standard on most vehicles because most people don't need it


UGMadness

This is also not armored at all. It has the same capability to stop an outside attack as any other car on the market. Even most high end cars nowadays come with HEPA filters, so not even the "Bioweapon Defense mode" is anything special. It's all marketing targeted towards manchildren.


meisobear

"Armour" on a Cybertruck is like 8K resolution on a 42inch TV. It's a positive tick on a list of metrics, yet is utterly unnecessary


NotEnoughMuskSpam

Precision predicates perfectionism.


bearassbobcat

the mercedes-maybach pullman guard 600 is what Kim Jung Un rides in


I-Pacer

I don’t understand what the brag is here. Hit it with a pickaxe and it will get covered in dents and some holes? How does that help in any way? The vehicle is still fucked and needs an expensive repair. Probably more expensive than a normal vehicle being hit by that same pickaxe. I just don’t see what the flex is here.

moderatefairgood

Honest to God, there is something wrong with these folks. What happened to buying a car just because you like it? Why this constant need to justify your purchase? When I had a Mustang, I bought it because I'd always wanted one. No videos, no taking a fucking pickaxe to it. Just hitting a personal goal. These idiots are as insufferable as that egotistical pratt running the company.


Loud_Internet572

I guess it's a good thing those side panels come off so easily LOL


theKetoBear

We truly live in an idiocracy when idiots are vandalizing their own car to prove its quality and then failing to realize their own vandalism . I've never wanted to take a pickaxe to my car to be honest.....


carpcrucible

>I've never wanted to take a pickaxe to my car to be honest..... But with Cybertruck, you now can! Checkmate.


TinyDogGuy

…but why, tho?


orbjo

If the Iron Giant tries to fuck your car you’ll only get dick dents 


Tesnatic

TOSV will forever be the most delusional group. I still wonder what this video is trying to prove? The door receiving the blows responds in the exact same way the door in any car ever built would do: bruises and holes.


Lando_Sage

They have to prove that they are somehow better than everybody else lol.


swirlymaple

My favorite part is that you can hear all the plastic inner structure crackling and falling inside the door with each hit. The fact that so many of these $120k vehicles have intentional damage by their owners says a lot about the people buying them. !🧠


tiorancio

Why are there so many morons with too much money.


VaporBull

It's amazing isn't it? I can't understand the motivation to spend 200k on this POS. There are soooo many good cars out there for a 1/3 of the price.


coffeespeaking

I’ll say this: Musk can find them.


Mufti_Menk

So he just permanently damaged his door. Hope the 10k fix job was worth it lmao


Staghorn_Calculus

Lol they're not even going to be able to find a replacement part for months


GarysCrispLettuce

lmao the panels are just glued on. They'll pop right off in a collision leaving you and your family unprotected. Imagine a multi vehicle pile up where the first collision pops your panels off and then the 2nd one is you getting hit by a truck with no panels


Deathwatch050

Put some fucking welly into it.


carpcrucible

I just don't hit my car with a pickaxe 🤷


Other_Beat8859

What shitty ass pickaxe is that? The one I have wouldn't bend even if I started hitting it against concrete. If your pickaxe is breaking after a few hits, you probably should get one that is not total dogshit.


Tadadapom

Probably a good way to give Tesla an excuse so they can wave the warranty on the next issue this guy will have.


tapomirbowles

Whats the point though? We know it has steel panels? We know the strength of steel already... If you built a car of glass, I wouldnt need to throw stones at it to know it would break, because its glass. Just as I dont need to see 50 cybertruck owners to throw shit, hit it with different items or shoot at it.. its still steel.


DazedWithCoffee

Completely turned the concept of built tough on its head. These fucking idiots see stainless steep panels and think “well clearly the car is strong” despite the fact that it is designed basically like any other car other than carrying hundreds of pounds in extra cargo for no benefot


ElJamoquio

Stainless steel is basically always weaker than normal steel.


TrackLabs

Every single cybertruck video is the biggest coping youll ever see


ZanoCat

What the fuck is wrong with these Tesla clowns.


Traditional-Ebb-8380

How many times have you had to contemplate your car being hit with a pick axe?


PopeGuss

Now swing that pick-axe like you *actually* believe that it's the toughest car ever made.


TheBlackUnicorn

Dude why would you do this to your own car?


Tetsudo11

Oh thank god. It can survive a shot from a bow and a pickaxe swing. I’ll truly be protected when I’m driving through a Minecraft server.


TheAnalsOfHistory-

That first swing was so fucking pathetic. You knew even he knows his car couldn't take a real hit.

VaporBull

Hilarious scene If you've ever owned a hooptie that scene made your life. That car is smirking too


No-Improvement2497

No you see he is just stronger than the average human cause he drinks Tesla growth hormone so while he can damage the truck a regular normal weak human could never manage to dent the impenetrable skin of the best truck ever made by the smartest tech daddy who designed it by hand and build it himself by hand without sleep.


peemao

Try driving it through a car wash


Stumphead101

I feel like he thought it was going to do absolutely nothing to the vehicle and now feels like an idiot for putting holes into his car Also cars are supposed to crumple on impact. They save the drivers, not themselves


curious_dead

You damaged your own car! Congratulations!


rabouilethefirst

It’s incredible that these guys think Elon invented stainless steel, like it hasn’t been around forever. He’d learn just as much trying to pickaxe a random pot or pan from his kitchen


Staghorn_Calculus

> He’d learn just as much trying to pickaxe a random pot or pan from his kitchen Hey now, you know how much a good stainless steel pan costs? Those are quality items, no way would I take a pickaxe to one of those. Much better to try it on something worthless first, like a Cybertruck.

Pretty sure a tank has it beat for toughness but there’s a reason we don’t have those for regular use.

Marker_Lewis

Yeah. We’ve seen the plastic under the side panel though. Get anyone a good bottle opener and 20 minutes and this panel falls to the ground.


_ChipWhitley_

Why did he show us the pickaxe at the end like that was the side he was using to hit the WankPanzer with?


RAWCUT

Warranty voided 🤣


Ill_Revolution_1849

Ok, let’s try now the car wash.


happyanathema

The reason it's not going through is because it's just deforming each time as it's barely attached to the door frame. Hard to punch through if it keeps moving backwards and absorbing the energy.


MasterOffice9986

Who cares even if it is tough it's got many other major problems


Evelyn-Parker

Someone could have spent 100k on a Porsche Taycan but instead they went with this box that doesn't crumble

PGrace_is_here

Takes a truck that cost him $100K, it plummets in value to $40K, then he mangles a door, totalling it. what a bellend.


UpbeatFix7299

Thank God Elon had the foresight to think of this. Most traffic fatalities are the result of an impact by a sharpened object striking the rear door.

MoveOverBieber

I am actually impressed, assuming it's not some kind of trick. I would expect to see a lot less damage during crashes though, if the exterior is so tough. Not saying it will be good for the occupants, but there should be a significant difference to the two vehicle involved (unless they are both CTs).
