Mythbusters proved that.
A far less gross episode than the one where they made candles from earwax.
It's called dorodango and it's art
Risky search of the day, pfew!
Proud of you, boo
If this is real and setting aside the steaming pile that is the Cybertruck... The effort required to polish that much stainless steel to that level of finish is astounding.
Poor taste but amazing execution!
I doubt it's polished. It's probably a mirror wrap. Much cheaper and less effort.
Ah, yeah, that makes way more sense. TIL mirror wrap is a thing.
There's a company that does mirror polishes of them. I remember seeing a clip from some car show. They'd done a dozen or something, and it was mainly a guy just sitting there using an angle grinder and a big buffer/polishing wheel.
Was going to mention this as well. There's definitely companies out there who do exactly this sort of mirror polish on cybertrucks.
People definitely have polished one of these to a mirror shine though. It looked awesome.
I would totally drive into that thing and claim I was blinded by the sun. It's so fucking illegal.
Crash into it on an e-scooter and total it
Can that legally drive tho?
I thought someone tried this with a delorean a while back and it was illegal.
Probably a cops car
I like it.
You can look yourself in the eye as you approach and think 'why am I going anywhere near this comedy fall-apart clown death car?'
The shiniest dumpster.
This looks a whole lot cooler than the standard cybertruck
Now they're obnoxious AND they glare.
This is some fucked up Wile e coyote shit
Is that for chopping up lines of K?
saw a turd brown one in seattle today. at least it didn't glare.
