HUNAN – If you’re a fan of all things barbeque, you’re probably sorely missing it right now, thanks to the Full Movement Control Order (FMCO). Barbequed food is arguably one of the best cuisines known to man and is perfect for cold, rainy days.
A group of men took barbeque to the next level when they decided to use the exhaust pipe of a Lamborghini to cook a skewer of meat. This incident occurred at an underground garage at Changsha in the Hunan Province.
According to Xiaoxiang Morning Post, the cohort attempted to roast some skewered meat with the help of the car’s exhaust pipe, which releases a high level of heat. As the car owner kept stepping on the accelerator, his partner held the skewer gleefully and looked forward to enjoying some tasty barbeque. Nothing could go wrong, right?
Well, it turned out that thanks to the constant release of high heat, the Lamborghini had no chance of cooling down and decided to call it quits by emitting a pillar of smoke from its rear section.
Sensing that something was wrong, the car owner took his foot off the accelerator and quickly rushed over to check on the vehicle, only to find a puddle of bright, red liquid flowing out from the car, shocking onlookers.
Apparently, the water tank had exploded due to the extreme heat, causing the antifreeze coolant to flow out as well. This misadventure also officially marked the end of the Lamborghini’s life.
A report by Sohu estimated that repair costs for the Lamborghini was approximately 500,000 yuan (RM323,000).
The video has aroused much discussion among netizens, who called this incident as the “most expensive BBQ in history” and expressed bewilderment over the need to barbeque meat in such a manner.
“This is why we don’t understand the world of rich people.”
Others criticized the car owner for his blatant disregard for money by ruining an expensive car in exchange for entertainment.
