There's two things: we learned from social media number one. Unless we're inside an echo chamber, we can't have a discussion about anything anymore number: two. You can do a lot of cool stuff with the tesla, it's literally a gadget on wheels, but this dude from finland. I'm about to show you has literally blew everybody out of the water.
If this is your first time here, remember, don't click! Nothing, don't smash! Nothing! Don't buy nothing! It ain't about that in this channel, just listen and enjoy this video. Let's get started. So, according to this electric article, a tesla owner blew up his model s with dynamite over 22 000 battery replacement. Essentially, the dude ran out of warranty.
It's a 2013 model s, they don't have any more warranty for this car and he needs a new battery. Tesla quarter them at 22, 000 dude like well. This is a 2013 tesla, i'm not going to spend 22 000 on replacing a battery. You know we can sell it for parts.
We can probably sell it. You know as a as a junk get some money off it maybe do something cool with it. Maybe give it away and he's like no i'm going to blow it up and i'm going to put it on youtube of all places, and that's literally what it did. This is the definition muy bella sibo of great content.
So you have this article right here. You can go ahead and read it. I'm going to put the link in the description below the article tells the whole story how this guy was really annoyed. This is the thumbnail for the video.
I think it's brilliant now, there's a few things you need to know about this before we check out the video uh. This video is coming from finland. Now you have to understand that finland is a very unique country. First of all, a lot of respect for finland.
This is the only country that ever beat the ussr in war. Not a lot of people know this, but the ussr actually tried to fight finland and lost and lost quite severely. So you know finnish people are really crazy. Now, uh, not a lot of you remember, but in 2013, by the way, the year that this car is modeled from so in 2013 was the year we're absolutely obsessed about the dude sons, four guys from finland accidentally who did crazy, like this yep they're, literally going To switch drivers from one car to another mid driving and this sort of thing is very representative of the usual videos.
To be honest, there's no uh cgi here these mother lovers were crazy, so i'm just gon na. Let you see just a few more seconds of this, but they actually did. This obviously do not try this at home. It's a professional stuntman, but essentially they're gon na go and do something like that, and that's just one example of the multiple stuff they did over.
The years uh, as you can see very safe, this little string looks like it's gon na hold, i'm not going to spoil it for you, but the man is literally going to climb from one car to another, and then the other dude will do the same thing. So that's just to give you an example of what finnish people are like. Why call him incumbent no period he's enjoying himself? Oh, my goodness, i can't wait to go to finland. It looks so much fun, so obviously it's a professional rigging obviously do not try this at home. Why do they have a helicopter there? I have no idea look at this. Why would they that's such a finnish thing to do they literally hired the helicopter? Just for this little joke, are they going to put it in the car? Obviously, it's a professional rigging do not try this at home um, it's a very dangerous thing, but very finished thing to do. Let's watch it blob then looks professional. I'm not gon na lie.
I feel bad for the tesla yeah. This is tesla no more yeah, so you can watch the full video i'm going to put it below. Obviously, i've never seen anybody so happy blowing up his car. Before now it's gone.
I think it's pretty safe to say that now it's gone um is there like a slow-mo. There must be right, yeah, that's pretty crazy! That's a gnarly explosion! Look at this! Look the tesla's reduced to rubble, so basically uh. I think there's one point of of emphasis that we do have to talk about this video, which is, i think, it's going to drag a lot of criticism about tesla and how tesla is basically, you know 22 000 in the hall, because the battery runs out. You have to remember this is a car.
That's been on the road for eight years, plus it's more than eight years, because tesla has a warranty of eight years on your battery. So it's an eight plus year old car. That's been used under extreme conditions. I don't know if you know how finland is, but it's freaking cold as hell, so this is a car that was operating for eight plus years in harsh cold and the battery died.
So i don't know what your expectations are from your car, but it my car gives me an eight year warranty on the drivetrain. I'm going to be happy with it and you know 22 grand is probably not viable. I would actually sell it for parts, but i mean: maybe you know what it's good content. Why not? Let's move on now? I do want to show you what bloomberg just did, because this is literally insane so bloomberg.
Put out this video about elon, musk and i'll, show you how insanely biased that is without actually using all the way like full crank bias. They do it very subtle, and but i think it's ridiculous. Let me show you the video, so let's watch it together, katrina, it seems muscular is getting closer to offloading his 10 stake. How much does it seem that he has left first question, i don't understand like it's so unprofessional.
How much does it seem that he has left it's a clear number? It's mathematics. He said exactly i'm selling 10. You can calculate how much 10 of his talk it's public filing to see how much he filed. So it's an exact number, so very unprofessional.
In my opinion, to ask that how much does it seem that has left? I mean it's a very easy answer, but of course, if you're doing these bets and you're not doing your research, it's a little bit complicated for sure. Well, it doesn't seem like you've got a lot to go. As you said, musk has sold a further about 929 million of tesla's shares, moving closer to that target of reaching his sake of selling the stake in the electric order maker by about 10. Now this latest sale was almost of a million more shares that came after musk wrote on twitter that he's almost done trimming. This stake clarifying an earlier comment in an interview he gave with a satirical website. That said, he'd actually already reached the target in terms of how much he's already got to go. You notice how they did it as if he did anything wrong. So he didn't do anything wrong.
He said i'm done selling and then uh people ask them. What do you mean and then they explain? Well, i'm done selling there's a public filing that actually depicts every single cell. That's planned. It's called the 10b filing.
So it's not like he's added a new filing after saying that he's done just look at the filing. It's quite simple, but they make it seem as if it's something shady as if he's you know, went on this podcast said he's done selling and then all of a sudden decided to sell more shares. That's just you know very subtle creation of fud, very typical yeah. I'm not really sure what to think about musk, giving an interview with a satirical website, someone who seems to uh like to engage in some form of satire on twitter.
Already, i'm not really sure that i like him, going on the satirical website. Why? The not? What's the problem, what is the problem? How does this have to do with this story? They're doing these like two minute clips, they have nothing to say about it. Lady. Nobody gives a crap about what you think about him going on the show.
It's supposed to be a very simple bit two minutes: you explain how much he sold how much more he needs to sell your opinion about him going on the satirical website is irrelevant. Nobody gives a, but that's another way to create fud. You see she's already creating a bias against the guy and you'll see in a second how she actually aggravates that look. We saw tesla shares rally yesterday, their most since the start of november uh, because there was this optimism that he was done almost selling his shares.
But i wonder what again she's putting on something inside the explanation, which is completely false. She's already telling you that the shares rallied because he said he sold not because of a million different reasons why tesla is actually rallying right now, which has nothing to do with the podcast and there's a lot of institutional money and tests. I don't think people are buying based on certain comments and podcasts, so essentially she's already putting it in there as if he actually said something intentionally to spike the share price. While it was false, so there's no causation between what he said in the step going up, because he clarified it literally a few hours later. The stock has been rallying for two days after that. But then again, you know why stick to the truth, when you can create fud, what sort of tax is the billionaire due to pay this year billionaire has to pay? Why would why not use his real name? Lady, i mean what's the problem: why do you have to emphasize the fact that he's a billionaire you're only trying to create bias? It's so sad to see this by the way. Let me answer your question and let me answer it with this article. So this is an article from tesla writing and this should answer your question pretty nicely.
So basically, it says elon musk's, 2011 taxes - this is beautiful, are over 1.5 million for every day he's been a citizen. So, as you know, elon musk is about to pay 11 billion dollars in taxes this year and somebody went ahead and calculated how many days elon served as a u.s citizen, and they calculated this as 1.5 million per day. That's one of the most expensive passports. Ever you must be crazy, 1.5 million.
For every day i mean that's like johnny carson divorce money. What the hell is this uh? It's not a it's! It's definitely not smart tax planning on ills behalf. So whatever these guys are telling mainstream media there's no smart tax planning, the dude is paying a ton of money. Now, here's the thing, so it's not only the mainstream media.
Looking in this article you'll see again the bias here, i'm going to put this article again in the description section, so you can go and read it. This is from bloomberg basically talking about how nitza has asked tesla to remove video game features from when the car is actually in drive. It's not because the drivers are idiots right. They should not be playing video games.
I mean you can play video games on your phone. You don't need tesla to play video games while you drive and but basically you know another nitza investigation, blah blah blah tesla says no problem. Let's just remove video game features, while you drive only when you park, you know what they added instead shout out to ryan shaw from twitter, who put out this example of what they put in instead of the video games, you're gon na absolutely love this check this Out: here's a quick demo of the new megaphone feature. You just turn it on and everything i say is going through the megaphone and it's lowering my voice.
These cars are crazy testing. They literally put a megaphone feature in your tesla, took out the games and added a megaphone. You can megaphone your way through the neighborhood. I wonder when is the next investigation about this megaphone? I do want to give you a little bit of a serious note here.
This is from hungary, not a lot of people care about hungary, i know, but hey by the way a great country visited there with my family, i absolutely loved it. So basically, a tesla mega pack chosen for an energy storage project in hungary. This is a power station, a huge mega pack deal you can read about it, it's going to be in the comments again. This is a sleeper. Nobody is talking about the tesla energy business and these mega pack taking over the industry. It's not the first or the last project, so if you have any brains, you should understand how much potential this company has, because this share is not even yet priced in to the stock price. The energy business nobody's talking about this might be as big as the auto industry now before you guys go a quick warning about a scam, there's a scam in my comment - sections uh, some uh. Some guy sent me this.
This is from from from a subscriber that actually got scammed out of three thousand dollars so because he got scammed from three thousand dollars. It's my responsibility to show you this. So essentially, it's a comment and right now, finance blah blah blah has some sort of a bug. I posted the video and then essentially you go to this person's video and there's a video about a certain bug, and you see all these great comments: everybody's yeah yeah.
I made so much money, blah blah. Obviously it's all bots right. This is huge. Thank you, like even legitimately sounding question.
How do i pick tax for all these great earnings, blah blah blah? Look at this right. What taxes should i pay in italy? If i made 64 000 euros in this way, so basically this is all enticing for you to to send them three thousand dollars in bitcoin, so the dude send them 3 000 dollars in bitcoin, obviously never got it back and, as you can see, this is obviously All bitcoin here we have evidence uh, do not send these guys bitcoin! Please, please please! This is all a freaking scam. Be careful of this. I salute to this guy for actually being open about this and showing me this, but please don't fall for any if anybody's.
In the comment section asking you for to contact them on whatsapp, send you bitcoin whatever it's all a freaking scam. Please don't do it a huge shout out for channel members and patrons if you want to join it's five bucks per month, essentially for nothing and the link is going to be below, for you to join you'll only be supporting the channel. That's the only thing i can offer to you really as always pleasure to having you on my channel, see you tomorrow and merry christmas to everybody, hugs and kisses tomorrow. Maybe i'll wear a santa hat, see you later.
How about an adapter that coverts all electric stations into a Tesla one? Im not buying one until I can charge at every electric station like BRO its not a phone. ITS A CAR.
I have a 10 year old Honda Accord. I just put new struts on it and it feels like new.
Clearly photo shopped explosion , where are the larger parts of the car post explosion ? Fake everything !
Reality is that everyone even without the podcast knew that elon was close to being done selling. And every single investor should know how many shares were left to be sold given how many options he still had to exercise and the stock went up even more after he sold on the first strongly green day (21.12.)
Lesson 1, if you want to make money and clicks on youtube, buy a used Tesla for cheap money and then blow it up lol..
Blowing up a car is great Content?
Its the Definition of wastefull and polluting.
My truck is an 05 f150 now I donβt feel so bad anymore still runs great, looks ahh could be better, donβt own a Tesla but do own their stock.
And add for tesla shared, the initial funding was public dollars that weren't required to pay back.
His large sell off affected Tesla price per share. Manipulated the market with a billion dollar selloff.
22k for a battery. A petrol engine would keep running. Engine rebuild its only 2500. Bring the price of the battery pack to match the cost, then I could justify the cost.
Thanks for talking about the Tesla energy storage and distribution. Big sleeper.
The DOT has forbidden all video movies from the driver's view for decades. So Elon the genius was unaware of that? Or he just thought he could be exempted? This gaming in motion prohibition has been legally overdue for years. Cry big crocodile tears while you laugh, Elon.
The guy bought a water damaged US car and imported it to EU. Then he got pissy when it was expensive to fix after a botched 3rd party replaced the battery. No sympathy.
Took it from 4.4K to 4.5k, love your stuff – got me with the βwhy the f not?β π
Season's greeting. Thanks for all your great advices. Hava a nice holidays… ππ
Merry holidays from Finland, Tom!
Iβm your fan and highly appreciating your channel! ππ»
22k is unacceptable in my opinion. I could go on and on about my vehicles and there age and reliability but 8 years is not long at all to own a vehicle that is considered junk after that. Great video to show the cost of repair. Thanks Tom!
Excellent analysis of the Financial Fog Machine. This happens so often. Itβs hard to imagine thereβs not a play behind all these segments that inject so much bias and opinion. They know that these pieces move the market, both up and down. Thereβs a way to report news without throwing so much color on it, but they obviously arenβt shy about attempting to reshape our opinions. I guess they think they can get away without viewers noticing the Jedi mind tricks. Thanks for pointing this out example. I always wanted to start a channel called βWhy I Hate CNBCβ that pointed out, on a daily basis, how un-objective their work is through criticism like this. Youβre on the money. Now if only we knew what their goals were. Do organizations pay them for influence or is this just the editorβs unilateral game playing?
Bloomburg Answers to the CCP!
A media attack on Tesla is good for the CCP βStolenβ Tesla Tec auto manufacture.
Why is no one taking about the cars that were left out of the update even a 1 year old car does support the new features. No one is talking about this. Why? 2021 S/X are not compatible with repeater camera, light show, UI refresh, Sentry Mode Live and more. This is very concerning that no one talking about this planned obsolescence. Is this the first sign of them not being supported in the long term or do they just need more time. Communication would be great.
But but…. Gas powered cars can run for 2 decades…
$22k for another possible 8 years of ownership is not a bad gig and way cheaper then the $80+ he probably paid for the first 8 years. I'm sure there is more to this story then we are hearing.
Haha I love the way Tom says this a professional setup… I think they seem more crazy than professional. Maybe crazy = professional in Finland.
Communists : taking notes on how to kill capitalism.
I know it's a relative thing given how all cars are different feature, capabilities, reliability, etc but if my car lasted 8 years I'd be pretty pissed. I got Mazda3 that I hope will be relatively trouble free for 10-15 years at least and I live in Canada. Weather forecast next week… -30 degrees Celsius what a bundle of joy ugh.
2013 is not that old for a 22k repair. and a dead car.
Disposable appliance π. 22 k for a new battery price of carbon credits.
I am a Bloomberg subscriber due to work. Trust me Bloomberg is anti Tesla. Lotsa FUD 99% negative articles and obviously it is not coincidental when these originate from the same editors.
I sent my friend who is in the SEC your link. You dont even have a college degree Tom.
What will the serviceability be of the new structural packs?
This is anti Tesla gimic which I think is stupid. If that was an 8 year old Cadillac, his video will get no views.
I love Tesla and screw anyone who doesn't respect Tesla and Elon.
I think the content is good, but the title is absolutely a click bait. There is nothing done by Elon in this particular video, unless I'm missing something.
He should have held on to it. I still have a 2014 Tesla. Battery is fine though. I only have 20,000 miles n it.
Merry Christmas,Tom! Note that Tesla only supports the replacement of the entire battery pack, but other suppliers are popping up that can and will replace JUST the cells that are failing… places like Gruber Motors and The Electrified Garage. It's similar to how some manufacturers wont sell you a window raising motor, but require you to buy the whole door — I know it's not that much money, but similar technique.
The satirical website is probably getting more views than they are so are making more money than the corporation is off tesla and or Elon click bait.
Write any messages to grandpa here and I will read it to him later
