You could do this with any ICE car.
Hot exhaust and dry plants make fire.

Well yeah the van caught fire too. (You didn't watch the video?)
Vans also have brakes.
I did something like this once. Scrap cars in a field of someone we knew, cut a track into the grass and had a great time. Still have the piston end from a C1.
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.
He was definitely gonna trash it, but I bet he was hoping to get more content out of it lmao
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.
And nobody had a fire extinguisher...

*Losing a Ferrari in a corn field
Stealing a video and posting it here bold move
If you have a link to the original, I can update
Longer video:
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.
Ah yeah, that became obvious after having seen the longer video. Such garbage behavior
pray that these idiots disappear somehow.
Perhaps by lighting themselves on fire?
so watching the video encourages him to do more stupid shit like this
Right on! I even bought some of his merch to help out that much more.
Well I guess that's one way to start a forest fire
