Needing a new serpentine pully as old one had it's bearings melt and thus the belt went and melted it too. o my big brain moment was immediately get back in the car and try to drive to auto shop.

Why are a couple of the spikes already bent? I know the answer is someone died but maybe there’s another answer?

Hard braking would bend them in that direction.

It doesn't take much to bend them. Braking or turning would put enough force in one place to do it. They didn't start filming the moment it dropped off the jacks. There were certainly some test drives to make sure it worked before they started recording, so who knows what they did to it before.

I also enjoyed the time I drove over the end of the car ramps. Amazing nothing really bad happened.

Spun over a rotary on the floor with the starter... forgetting that there’s usually an oil cooler and hoses between those two unoccupied fittings on the block. Good news was that the oil pump was healthy at least...

Not to mention several of the things other posters have mentioned.

When stuff like that happens with oil I gain another level of appreciation with the amount of pressure and volume an oil pump provides during the time my dumbass brain finally decides to shut the engine off after realizing my fuckup.

Oooooh there is hard disagree here, WhistinDiesel is one of the absolute worst fuckwits on Youtube and an absolute clueless dickhead. He shot himself in the face with a loving .50 cal.

Not a mistype, he literally shot a .50 cal at a steel plate from point blank and drat near killed himself when bullet pieces came straight back at him.

Arced a wrench between a couple battery terminals is obvious:

I did that across the 48v terminals of a bank of batteries in a land speed racing car. Sent a box end wrench at least a half dozen meters into the air.

Scared the poo poo out of me. Was fun to see where the wrench tried to tack weld itself before jumping out of my hand.

Today's paper had an article about the city's police force retiring their last Ford Crown Victoria.

https://www.thespec.com/news/hamilton-region/2021/02/24/retiring-the-last-hamilton-police-crown-victoria-interceptor.html

That may be paywalled. It's a 2011 with low vis markings that the city of Hamilton, Ontario has been using for traffic enforcement. The cops have gotten attached to it and have nicknamed the Red Rocket.

It's the 21st century and you really should be able to eyedropper pick any color from an RGB palette and have it put on a new car.

Wonder how much an aftermarket paint job on something like an F40 would cost anyway if you pulled it apart properly.

You can, if you go to the right manufacturer with enough money. Audi I know do this for example.
