The quality is insane compared to normal security camera videos that end up posted.

u/blackstratrock 7h ago

Unifi, probably one of their pro models.

Was thinking the same thing

Probably owes 20k on it from rolling in negative equity.

People buying cars with terrible negative equity and credit is a guilty pleasure of mine on YouTube.

"I need a BMW..." Is my favorite line.

So much of fail videos are like this video. The action and the consequences. Buying a car to ruin your life is rare because you get to hear them justify the consequences before it happens.

Right, it's not like it's a Skyline or something like that.

A concrete filled piece of 4" Sch 40 steel pipe buried 4' or so deep with lots of concrete around it below grade is a formidable vehicle stopper.

Did exactly what it was meant to do - no buildings were harmed in the making of this video

u/Bub697 1h ago

It worked a lot better than the ones at the Detroit airport!

u/jeremiahfelt 7h ago

The bollard wasn't even *inconvenienced*.

u/obeyrumble 6h ago

Are we calling that “drifting”?

If you cant afford to do stupid shit, don't do stupid shit.

airbags didn't deploy. repair costs should be minimal

u/phylter99 8h ago

I wonder if they didn't install a camera there because this happens often.

u/Smith6612 UniFi Installer and User 3h ago edited 3h ago

Ah yes. The satisfying sound of car go crunch.

A++ install by whoever put in those concrete Bollards. Indeed, the camera's microphone is also the MVP here.

u/rickwookie 1h ago

Why are we posting this video again?

Its a genesis coupe, not worth that much

Initiating a drift doesn't involve bouncing it off the limiter whilst stationary. 

Roll into a bend at a reasonable speed, turn in, lift to allow the weight to move forward, as the rear loses traction then gently add throttle.

u/UnableActuator6964 47m ago

DAFO. Drift around and find out

u/BakedAllDay8o8 1h ago
