I'm also hoping that the part where there's yelling at the beginning was only a small portion of how they were trying to convince him not to perform this asinine stunt as the tree is not going to budge, while he was arguing that they are idiots and he's seen his uncle's cousin Ibrahim do this dozens of times without an issue...
It's because he tied it to the wrong part of his car. It should have been tied off at the frame, not the rear wheel assembly. That part of the car is put together to deal (mostly) with vertical forces, not the force of being pulled horizontally from the frame.
Rope can be surprisingly strong. The fall protection lifelines I used at work are 5/8" in diameter, they're rated to 5000lbs. In practice they can exceed that limit by a large margin.
Favorite part is when he walked back to the driver side with a “screw you guys I’m going home” look before his shoulders drooped and he realized he’s not going anywhere.
Laughter is great. I don’t speak of lick of their language, but I’d be right there laughing with the dude. In that moment we wouldn’t need to speak the same language to communicate 100%
That’s Arabic, Omani accent. Not many arabs understand it, probably just the locals. In the beginning he was asking his friends to back off. After he cracked the car, (not his car apparently, but his friend’s), he told the man who was laughing “you told me you had a good car, now look what happened” or something like that
Fuck man I miss the Middle East. Growing up there we used to do stupid shit like this all the time . When we were in 8th grade we drifted too Much in a very narrow road and hit a curb and the front axle came off. We all ran out of the car and had to calll a god damn crane to lift the car off the road.
“Geico service center, how can I help you?” “I’ve been in an accident and I will need to claim a new car on insurance.” “Ok sir, can you describe the accident?” “Yeah, I probably could, but I don’t think it is relevant.” “Ok sir, can you send a photograph of the damage.” “Umm, we’ll, I could, but I think you just need to take my word for it that the car is a total write off.” “You were being an idiot, weren’t you?” “Yes ma’am, and I promise to never do it again. Can you please just give me a new car now?”
Looking at this again looks like the subframe and suspension assembly was disassembled before hand. at 29 seconds you can see the damper (on car) is fairly damage free and it's mount (near the right wheel) is also undamaged. The long bolt that would connect both together seems to be missing.
The laugh makes it that much funnier!!! U can tell it's a legit laugh, and tht guys probably peeing himself he's laughing so hard!! Definitely made me laugh!!!💜💜💜
When will people learn that this will literally never work. Anything small-medium or bigger with a halfway grown in root system, especially if it’s not dug out AT ALL, is NOT going to budge and it WILL fuck up your car
Was that a Palm they were trying to pull up? Those are fibrous, with long fibers running up and down the entire length of the trunk. They are built to survive hurricane force winds... and sedans with snatch straps for that matter.
Yeah not sure if any of you have ever tried to pull a stump up with a pickup before but it's normally fucking impossible if it has any sort of root system.
Hi! This is our community moderation bot.
What makes it even funnier is the driver just standing there not even cracking a smile
He's processing it all with his friend next to half his car laughing
This face is priceless
that's the face of someone calculating how much this is gonna cost him
I can't believe I've done this
Probably because it was his only means of transport and he can't afford another one.
Laughing at your friend doing something stupid is universal. (☞ ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)☞

I had to watch again with sound after I saw him knee slapping haha, so good.
ContagiousLaughter
That cackle when he really sees how bad the damage is. *chef's kiss
The cameraman kicking the tyre just added to the hilarity.
Came here to say exactly the same... Without the face though

It really is. We need to get our dumbest friends from every nation, put them on stage and all join in their misery.
They're just like us humans 🤯
His laughter is so infectious and delighted.
Only your friend doing something dumb can make you laugh like that
[удалено]
That guy really enjoyed the end result 😅
That malicious laugh is quite contagious.
Shit ripped apart like a goddamn lego car.

Myth busters did this exact stunt once.
Lego Technic cars are way more sturdy than this.
Cuz its staged. They are just pulling a tree over in the middle of that dump.. guys both play their part perfectly..
Favorite part is when he walked back to the driver side with a “screw you guys I’m going home” look before his shoulders drooped and he realized he’s not going anywhere.
Unless it's front wheel drive. He could still drive.

It's been an hour and no response. Must be bad enough that it's impossible.

Yep. Laughter is the one universal language.
That'll buff out.
just put duct tape on it
Was that a palm tree? Their roots might not reach fat but they do dig deep. I used to dig em up to relocate them.
Yep, it was a palm tree! You can see it around the 21-22 second mark :)
I think it's a date tree, you can tell from the bark.
contagiouslaughter
Normally the posts I see in there don't do it for me. This guy? Absolutely contagious.
That’s what I was thinking too! I loved his laugh.
It’s good to see that no matter where you are on the planet you will find people doing this to their cars.
there was ^barely a tree in that post
I was expecting it to pan back and show a little sapling at the other end of the rope
The back fell off.
I’d just like to make the point that that is NOT normal.
"Samir you are breaking the car!"
Gigachad rope.
rope gang rise up
Dude in the car come out saying he almost died. makes it that much better 💀
No wonder it’s so hot in the Middle East, that sun is 10 times bigger than the one in the US
Where is this?
Oman :)
Somewhere really pretty!
Now you got a Segway.
I feel moderately better about the invoice I just got back from the auto shop
Their troubles look so beautiful wow
that rope is legit
I love seeing these videos of people thinking cars are tougher than trees.
I wanna hang with these guys
We must get rid of this tree!

Sounds like the average Middle East driver lol
That's just sounds like a shitty day

Reminds me of a lego car when you take the wheels off
But not gigachad camera man
Sameer you are breaking the car!
If anyone ever has to pull or tow something using a rope, a) don’t.

That was a good knot.

Why not make sure there's tension in the rope first before you punch it? He was asking for that to happen lol.

That might be the most genuinely satisfied snark I have ever heard. Lovely. It's how I want to laugh at my kids.
Laughter is a universal language
This needs to be in

Awww yes the laughing friend we all have one of these annoying motherfuckers in our friend collection top tier assholes haha
🪓 Use this next time lmao
Too real to be scripted
Yeah you can't fake the look of total loss on the drivers face afterward.
“Saudi Graffiti” ( likely most will not understand)
Even the sun started laughing in the background
ContagiousLaughter
Who is holding the camera? Michael J Fox, or my friend Ed maybe?
In sha'Allah
My bro just put a posi- trac in this civic so strong it'll tear trees out.. Bet it wont.. then dare me Darryl! I dare ya. Hold my camel leash.

Lucy's gonna be pissed!
That's some premium rope
He tries to reason his way out of it too haha
Should cross post to
Everyone’s laughing but the driver
I think the tree was normal, that car sucked
FWD so you can still drive home.
The cable is the real wow factor here
Ohh that look expensive. Buy a new car, probably less expensive😂
That laughter just makes it!
No big deal, the car is front wheel drive. Those back wheels just slow you down.
That looks expensive
thats gonna leave a dent
Thats some strong rope.
Dumbass

Anyone else catch the nuclear explosion at 0:37?
The amount of shake and sheikh in this video is quite high!

When will people learn that this will literally never work. Anything small-medium or bigger with a halfway grown in root system, especially if it’s not dug out AT ALL, is NOT going to budge and it WILL fuck up your car
Noting the condition of the car and the thickness of the tree, that played out exactly how I thought it would.
Why would you attach it to the subframe lmaoo.
Dude you left something
Back to the camel 🐪 i guess.
Duct tape will fix that.
Laughter is the universal language 😂🤣
Gigachad tree, or sigma ass car?
Full video is way funnier lol driver is adamant that this will work
plz link me, im dying right now lmaoooo
When a movable object meets an immovable force
Car didn't want to hurt the tree muslim car
Most likely a funny snapchat
Whose cousin’s car is that and how angry will he be
the dude's laughter slays me hahaha
Was the tree okay?
Whoops
Oileyes..
Bro just reverse and put it back on.
Tree -1, Idiot - 0.
I wonder if the camera man thought it was funny. Sadly, we'll never know.
How is no one talking about the explosion?
Translation?
I'm always astounded by people who floor the pedal when trying something like this.
There are so many things that are right about this video, but I can’t believe nobody has commented on how beautiful the driver is.
Do they not have image stabilization in the middle east?
So we gotta call....
Tree and rope-1 ….car-0
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHA

Go ahead and explain that to your insurance

What language? What country is this?
They're speaking Arabic. And the country's Oman. I recognized the number plate.
Bruh no matter the planet or world; the boys getting together and doing something stupid is all the same lol
HOW CAN TREE STAND????
The Driver had clearly never watched the Blues Brothers movie...
