A sleek black car modified to sit extremely low became the butt of jokes online after a group of men tried to “save” it by performing CPR.
A now-viral video on Facebook shows the car completely immobilised atop the road hump, unable to move forward or backward due to its ultra-low chassis.
Doing ‘CPR’ on the car
The incident, believed to have occurred in a commercial area of Bukit Serdang, quickly drew a crowd as a team of four men attempted an unusual “rescue operation.”
In the video, the men can be seen jumping onto the rear of the car, pressing down with all their might, stomping, and vigorously shaking it, making it look as if they were performing CPR on the vehicle in hopes of freeing it.
Meanwhile, the driver inside repeatedly steps on the accelerator, trying to help the car “climb” over the bump.
Despite their desperate efforts, the car remained stuck, blocking traffic and causing a jam in the area.
Netizens’ reactions
After the video went viral, many netizens poured in with their comments. Some shared their own experiences and advice in the replies.
‘Next time just drive over it at a slight angle, and you’ll be fine.’
‘I used to carry a wooden plank in my trunk. Just place it under the rear wheel and you’re good to go’
Netizens were also quick to poke fun at the scene. Many likened the men’s actions to performing CPR on the car, joking that they were trying to “resuscitate” it — but ultimately failed.
‘Malaysia is probably the first in the world to perform CPR on a car!’
“If you hadn’t modified the car, you wouldn’t be in such an embarrassing situation today.”
