Watch: Ford Raptor Gets Destroyed Out Of Sheer Stupidity

We have for you an amazing video a guy took of his buddy jumping his Ford Raptor, leading to complete disaster. It’s about the most predictable outcome ever, yet there’s so much to unpack in the short video clip.

See how a guy destroyed his Ram truck at the beach.

First of all: why is it so many Ford Raptor and Ram TRX drivers think because they paid too much for their truck they can jump it without consequence? You’ve probably seen the outcome of these disastrous attempts before, but it’s like these guys think they can stick the landing for sure.

This guy seems to think the most important thing is to take his Stanley cup out of the truck. Either he’s concerned the beverage container will be damaged or he’s afraid the liquid inside will go everywhere, you decide which.

But it’s a hilarious detail. After all, what self-respecting man uses a Stanley cup? The guy’s buddy obviously thinks it’s silly.

The buddy also starts filming because he knows something bad is about to go down and he wants to share it with the world. Maybe the Raptor driver thinks his friend wants to film his cool trick, but the opposite is true – you can tell that by how the guy is mocking him from the beginning.

This was surely the most entertaining insurance claim of all time. The owner is probably carrying a monster loan on the Ford, is upside down in it (both literally and financially), and likely took all kinds of damage from the ridiculous stunt made for no good reason.

But let’s be honest: by far the most reckless thing about this video is the guy taking it switching from portrait to landscape orientation partway through. That’s just downright criminal as we all know landscape is the only way to properly film your buddy when he’s about to do something super dumb and you want to share it with the internet.
