A YouTuber's finger was left shaking and dented after he tested out if the Tesla Cybertruck update actually makes the frunk safer.

    A Tesla engineer said the test was done wrong because the frunk increases in pressure every time.

    “You are holding it wrong!” 🤣

      Of course it just keeps hitting harder when things are in the way.

      Literally Tesla’s response

        I’m sure these “engineers” were confused everytime they saw an elevator door not mercilessly crush people.

          This breakthrough technology could finally provide a way to teach people on the MTA not to hold the doors.

        They learnt about consent from Elon.

          Probably “graduated college” the same way as Elon too

        It that point why not just have some blades slide out on the third try?

          Why bother when the door itself is an effective guillotine?

        The vehicles deny reality, same as their creator…

      If it increases in pressure every time, I’m now curious how many times you need to close the trunk to cut a finger off

        That was very nearly my exact same thought. Maybe not for curious children with carrot-sized fingers, but for adults, how convenient! Business competitor’s body won’t quite fit in your fancy frunk? Just while away on your phone for about 10 minutes, let the cat do its magic, and off go the legs! Travel-sized!

        But this feature requires an extra monthly subscription, that wasn’t included with the package of the YouTubers

        Well to be fair, that functionality is a pretty pricey add-on.
