I’m still not sure if it was an intentional car bomb or if he was transporting fireworks to use later that night and something about the car set them off.

A fully enclosed in non-air conditioned truck bed with a black lid in Las Vegas heat perhaps?

Is still probably intentional, otherwise it’s one of the more epic Darwin Awards.

Edit: Autocorrect stole my un from air conditioned.

Front row of the Darwin awards all happen to be cybertruck drivers

The lid is stainless steel, not black

It does in their promotional pictures now too. Colour me surprised. I shouldn't be given how much it changed since the prototypes

I wonder if it's still strong enough to stand on

He was shot in the head prior to the explosion going off. Seems unlikely that sequence of events was accidental.
