    Watch his other videos. He knew what was going to happen.

    Maybe not at that exact moment in that exact way, but that Ferrari was probably never meant to have a long life after he bought it.

      I would not think that when someone publishes a video called “I bought a $400,000 Ferrari just to destroy it”

        I’ve watched maybe 4 or 5 of his videos. There were a couple with him in a Hellcat with bug wagon wheels on it and I think he had his pickup either wagon wheels as well. But I know he’s known for just trashing stuff. Seems utterly pointless but apparently that’s what his audience wants.

        Why would Ferrari even let him buy it? Aren’t they super strict about what you do with them after you buy it?

          That was the whole point. He’s challenging Ferrari because they are well known for being litigious against people for using their own vehicles as they please.

          I believe he bought it used because there’s no way Ferrari would let him buy new.

    There’s some hilarious idiots out there, and with good cameras. I appreciate their effort to entertain.

      I’m sure they didn’t think this would happen. But still… It was really dumb

        If it didn’t die this way it would have died another equally bad way.

        It’s whistlindiesel on YouTube.

          I knew who this was as soon as I saw the cornfield. He definitely bought this Ferrari with the intention of thrashing it. I like how the van “accidentally” caught fire too.

      Worth noting that it’s one of those pricks intentionally destroying expensive stuff for attention, so watching the video encourages him to do more stupid shit like this. If you’re environmentally concious you might prefer just ignoring the video and pray that these idiots disappear somehow.

        Perhaps by lighting themselves on fire?

        Right on! I even bought some of his merch to help out that much more.
