Owner of Cybertruck Injures Finger During Demonstration of Vehicle's Durability
Rewritten Article:
A viral sensation is sweeping across the YouTube community, as Tesla Cybertruck owners attempt the daredevil stunt of sticking their fingers in the car's innovative front trunk, or "frunk." In a new video by YouTuber Joe Fay, we witness the dangerous consequences of this ill-advised experiment.
Initially, viewers accused Fay of cheating in his previous video by artificially making the frunk open as it came down on his finger. To set the record straight, Fay goes all out, placing his finger flat against the frunk and letting it close naturally. Even before trying it on his own finger, Fay demonstrates the frunk's destructive force by attempting it with a stick, which promptly snaps in half.
If you're curious to find out what happens next, we invite you to watch the video yourself. It's safe to say that the outcome is just what you'd expect – gruesome.
These viral videos may have started off as harmless fun, but watching someone risk a fractured (or worse) finger in this sickening display of trust in Tesla or Cybertrucks or Elon Musk is becoming increasingly unsettling.
In a shocking turn of events, YouTube personality Jeremy Judkins, who also tried this stunt in a viral video, was reportedly told by a lead Cybertruck engineer at Tesla that he was performing the experiment incorrectly. Apparently, the Cybertruck doesn't interpret tapping on the car as a distress signal; instead, it thinks you want the door to close harder when it encounters resistance – such as a finger or a bag getting in the way[2].
In another disturbing experiment, Judkins tested the frunk's reaction to a bag and found that it still closed with hideous force, indicating that the resistance sensors may not be functioning as intended. Gizmodo hasn't come across any videos yet showing a finger that's been severed whilst attempting this trick, but it certainly feels like only a matter of time until someone suffers such an injury.
We urge everyone to refrain from testing this dangerous stunt with a Cybertruck. Other vehicles have sensors that recognize a human finger as a potential hazard and won't actively attempt to harm you. There's no prize worth losing a digit over – unless, of course, you're trying to prove your worth to the Musk cult. But if you insist on joining this game, make sure to upload your stupidity for the world to see.

- Despite the risk of injury, the tech trend of experimenting with Tesla Cybertruck's frunk has gained popularity on YouTube, creating a buzz in the tech community.
- It's serious that some individuals are still trying to tap on the Cybertruck, expecting it to interpret this as a distress signal, although a lead engineer from Tesla has clarified this isn't the case.
- Safety concerns about the Cybertruck's frunk are escalating as YouTube personality Jeremy Judkins demonstrated the frunk's forceful closure even when it encounters a bag, hinting at potential malfunctions.
- The future of tech and safety becomes questionable when individuals continue to risk their fingers by tapping or inserting them into the Cybertruck's frunk, ignoring precautions and manufacturers' warnings.
