Ah, thanks for the context. Leads me to ask, from whence did he acquire said Sherman Tank, and the aforementioned preflattened tesla? Everytime I use that word in this context I think of Nikolai Tesla, rolling in his grave.
Edit I’ve just rewatched the video 3 times and I can’t fathom where you’re getting that idea from. It’s a normal model 3 then it’s a model 3 with a tank on it.
If you really think there’s shenanigans then post a pic highlighting where you think you can see it
I can’t find any reporting on where he got the tank from but there’s a museum in the Midlands and another in Surrey with plenty of working WW2 era tanks - it wouldn’t have been too hard to rustle one up. I’m betting it’s this one, it’s the largest.
“get in loser, we’re gonna tussle with some teslers.” Or something like that. Umm who is Ken Turner?

Was it not preflattened moments before Ken rolled over it with his Sherman?
Nope
