I guess Elon sees every fail as a win. Would have been great to be a bug on the screen of the driver, reckon his reaction would have been pricelass.

That thing slid off with ease, like an egg out of a frying pan

Could make a person wonder if that was a planned destructive test on the part of Tesla.
Flat Earth Trucker Thanks this. -
Chains....we don't need no stinking chains.

Makes you wonder if that thing was already baking hot and melted the straps before it slid off.

It’s amazing that battery pack didn’t trigger a wildfire where it fell and impacted.

It did start a grass fire, but fire crews got a handle on it before things got too dicey.mjd4277 Thanks this.

Those electric cars are quite a deal. No way to put it out just let it burn. Hopefully a Tesla factory never catches fire.
Bud A. Thanks this. -
Nikola has had it happen in the past.......
