Notable streamer and internet personality Adin Ross recently took delivery of a Tesla Cybertruck, and in classic content creator fashion, he did the most ridiculous thing you could do to it: shoot it with a gun. This follows Tesla’s own durability demonstrations, ensuring potential customers of the vehicle’s robustness.
Previous Testing and Public Demonstrations
The Tesla Cybertruck has been marketed as one of the toughest vehicles on the market today, and the company put its money where its mouth was by testing it and releasing a video of it during the delivery event in November. However, just as the steel ball test was first performed by Tesla and then emulated by fans later on, it was only a matter of time before somebody somewhere decided to do the same with a gun. Adin Ross decided to be the one to do it, shooting his Cybertruck up with 9mm ammunition.
Reactions to the Bulletproof Test
Ross’s excitement can be felt through his heavy breathing, use of profanity, and general expressions during and after the test. “If you’re ever in an argument with another car,” Musk said in November during the delivery event, “you will win.” But while accidents are a common occurrence on the road, being subjected to gunfire is not the most likely scenario. However, Tesla has branded the Cybertruck as an apocalypse-proof vehicle that will undergo any assessment or challenge and pass with flying colors.
The Cybertruck’s bulletproof nature was previously put in the spotlight when Tesla announced that a bullet-tested model would be displayed at the Petersen Museum. This exhibit aimed to showcase the vehicle’s extreme durability and the innovative approach Tesla is taking towards automotive safety and design. The news, covered by a source website named Teslarati, in an article titled “Bullet-tested Tesla Cybertruck to be displayed at Petersen Museum,” highlighted the fascination and public interest in the Cybertruck’s unique features.
Adin Ross’s personal test of the Cybertruck’s bulletproof capability is a testament to the intrigue and enthusiasm the vehicle has generated. With his bold action, Ross not only confirms Tesla’s claims about the Cybertruck’s durability but also underscores the cultural impact the vehicle has had, leading individuals to conduct their own unconventional experiments.
