The accident aged Duncan 40 years on impact

Is this AI-generated? I can not put my finger on why, but it feels like it.

[–] teuniac_@lemmy.world 2 points 10 hours ago

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.

[–] zer0bitz@lemmy.world 2 points 12 hours ago

Exactly what I thought when I opened it. Everything feels off in that video.

Oh, I recognize this, it's the first level of Driver on Playstation 1

[–] TheMinister@sh.itjust.works 2 points 19 hours ago

Dude he first driver was one of the best games

That _was_na 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

[–] Ilovethebomb@sh.itjust.works 3 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

That's the same thought I had, that's some incredible acceleration to have a crash like that inside a building.

[–] boonhet@sopuli.xyz 3 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

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.

[–] BeMoreCareful@lemmy.world 1 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

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.

[–] Ilovethebomb@sh.itjust.works 2 points 11 hours ago

Yeah, EVs can drive their tyres at the absolute limit of traction on launch.

[–] FLP22012005@lemmy.world 48 points 1 day ago (1 children)

It can do 60-0 even faster.

[–] CADmonkey@lemmy.world 3 points 18 hours ago

Within the length of its own hood apparently.

I love it when people know things

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.

Why would this even be present in a street legal vehicle?

[–] Ajen@sh.itjust.works 1 points 17 hours ago

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.

I sometimes wonder why the US even has a government.

The Americans should build their houses like this column, instead out of paper mache.

[–] DanceMomsSavedMe@lemmy.zip 17 points 1 day ago (1 children)

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.

[–] Wizard_Pope@lemmy.world 6 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

Could that be because companies use the cheapest materials and labour to then sell the houses expensively and reap massive profits??

[–] DanceMomsSavedMe@lemmy.zip 5 points 19 hours ago* (last edited 19 hours ago)

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.

Absolutely amazing how intact the cabin is. Modern car safety is phenomenal.

[–] restingOface@quokk.au 41 points 1 day ago (7 children)

Back in my day, cars killed their inattentive drunk drivers. Now, they just kill innocent children.

the reason i'm a proponent of the adaptive cruise control systems is that i was very, very nearly in a 30 car pileup on the Grapevine (if you don't know the stretch of road, I-5 north of LA, south of bakersfield. very mountainy and curvy, there's always a fire or an accident when i drive by four times a year). It was foggy and the ACC saw the car ahead of me before I did, let us stop before hitting it and making it a 32 car pileup.

When I was growing up (80s and 90s) that size accident would have multiple fatalities. Only one person had to go to the hospital, and she was pregnant. They wanted to check on the baby. Everyone else just had light bruising/abrasions.

Modern cars seem like a miracle compared to what i started driving.

Well at least the old dipshit looks appropriately miserable. I give even odds on his insurance dropping him after this shit.

[–] glitch1985@lemmy.world 1 points 5 hours ago

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.

[–] Treczoks@lemmy.world 113 points 2 days ago (14 children)

It is amazing how fast this car must have accelerated in this rather limited space to make an accident like this.

The old shithead, leaning on the rear tire, is lucky his fuck-up did not start a fire. Revoke his driver's license permanently.
