Just a few days ago, YouTuber Alex Choi uploaded a video showing off the “car shenanigans” taking place at a Tesla meetup in Los Angeles, California. However, things took a drastic turn when one of the Tesla enthusiasts flew their vehicle off a steep hill, rendering the car airborne for a few jaw-dropping seconds before crashing into the street several hundred feet away. Luckily, no one was hurt during the stunt, with Choi saying that he does “not condone reckless behavior that endangers the lives of others. Everyone is lucky to be alive.” YouTube: Alex ChoiYouTuber Alex Choi caught the shocking moment a driver launched their rented Tesla off a steep hill. Unfortunately, the driver wasn’t the only one risking their hide to perform the daredevil act — a cat was also in the car at the time of the incident, something that Twitch star Imane ‘Pokimane’ Anys just couldn’t condone.

What if you crash and the cat’s in there?” Read More: Twitch just changed the way streamers appeal bans and report accounts “That cat was just trying to live its life, y’know? Eat some tuna. Sleep in the sun. You’re sticking it in a car and endangering one of its nine lives.” Los Angeles police confirmed the car was a rental and showcased the damage on their YouTube channel, revealing the Tesla had hit two parked vehicles before coming to a stop. Describing the incident as a “misdemeanor hit and run,” LAPD are offering a $1,000 reward for any information that can be used to identify the driver.
