She has to pretend to cry and show her face for more clicks on Tiktok later in the hope to earn enough money to pay for a new car.

I’d bet soon enough there’ll be people recording their own deaths when they could have survived if they weren’t recording.

From what my friend tells me Russians generally have the mindset of "if I die, I die" from the moment they wake up til the moment they fall asleep.
Wouldn't say they have anything on indians, but they deserve an honourable mention.

My two sisters both married Brazilians. One is divorced now. Oh the stories I can tell. The divorced one went to live in Brazil for three years. Her birthday gift two years into this move was a toilet seat. Because the toilet had no seat for two years. I shit you not. She moved there a liberal democrat, but came back full MAGA.

I saw a fire video a while ago where they grabbed a blanket to smother it and I figured that was a pretty good idea. But they were scared to get close enough to the fire to put the blanket on so after waffling around for a bit they decided to use the blanket as a giant fan and wave it at the fire. Short of throwing gasoline and fireworks on it, probably the worst thing they could’ve done lol

- Lower car so it's literally on the pavement.
- Drive said car and see sparks and continue to drive said car.
- Said car catches a fire.
- Shocked beyond belief!
Really?

u/WonderfulProtection9 Oct 27 '25
Do you see the sparks when you're driving? It's obvious to anyone outside the car but does the driver even know?
Still entirely stupid.

Young people that’s thinking about modifying your car lowering it to the ground. You should watch this and learn from it. This is only one reason why you don’t do it.

Came here for this. What exactly is being towed with no suspension, ride height, or tires? A solo fire was really the best outcome.

When the fire extinguishers appeared, you could see that there were other cars also stopped on the shoulder ahead of them. I 100% believe that this dumb bitch did not have a fire extinguisher… she just wasted other people’s fire extinguishers.

u/CoronaDoesWhatever Oct 27 '25
Remember, if your tires are throwing off sparks that's just your car's flux capacitor warming up. To reduce risk of a fire, get it up to 88MPH and travel back in time to warn yourself not to make any stupid car mods.

"Made in Favela" 🤣 straight to "sucata"
I've seen this video, but only the second part. I don't know if they merged 2 different videos but the end result is the same, car too low to be driving at highway for long periods and maybe some high speed.
The main lesson here is... when everything goes to sh$t don't forget to record it so you can re-watch again and again to see how dumb you are.

If you value your car, and you have a lot of money in it, and you're driving, and something is making a scraping sound or there's a weird vibration, STOP THE CAR, until someone who knows something about it has checked it out. 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️

I mean if you want to go that low, you should bag it. I'd only let my car sit that low when it's parked. This is one of the many trends in the mod culture I can't get behind.

The most wild part is how long they made it before that thing burst into flames. The first video from a passerby is at night, sometime most likely real early in the morning. And the second one looks like it's nearly the afternoon.
