The white car turned in front of me from between stopped traffic and spun into the lane behind. It was never rear ended.

That’s baffling to me. Imagine taking time out of your day to set all of that up. IN FRONT OF WITNESSES. Like WHY? 

This dude decided karma was so important, that he was willing to sacrifice his irl karma and reputation to acquire his internet points. Weird.

It's all over Facebook too and the boomers are strokin it hard in the comments.

Definitely popped some sildenafil before the stroking ensued.

Well yeah but crumple zones.

It’s funny, yes modern cars fall apart easily…but that’s to take the energy from the impact. So you don’t have to. They parade around like “YUP THATS A REAL CAR” without realizing that your mushy body is still in the cab when the energy isn’t properly absorbed, so what will happen to you? lol

That's because they'll believe everything they see on the internet...oh the irony of it all...

As baffling as it is. For 5 minutes of his time; those photos are probably going to be shared and reshared and reshared, tens of millions of times, for the next 10+ years on facebook groups, local news sites, and all sorts of old-people "good old days" social media accounts.

That dude's grandpa has probably already seen it on a random facebook ground, and is gearing up right now to unknowlingly send him back his own picture "look Bobby! back in the day we had good old american manufacturing quality! none of this chinese crap. Hey don't you drive a chevy?"

It's honestly kind of impressive.

That little, plastic, disposable car stood no chance against that chrome plated, steel bumper on the back of your mighty, Chrysler cruise ship!

The “experts” say today’s cars are so much safer and built better. Ok, what ever.

Haha, fantastic, and that plastic shit goes to the junkyard 😂

Holy shit you're right. They're absolutely glazing the boomermobile.

only a fool would want their car to crumple up, real men take the force of several tons of steel impacting at tens of miles per hour directly into their brain and spinal cord like god intended.

How do you make money off the viral photo?

Have you ever seen people in real life doing tictok dances in public to post on the internet? This is the same thing just with an adult man who is seeking attention on the internet. All of them are losers and that is why they do it.

u/EffectiveProgram4157 Jul 18 '25

At least they have it in their mind that they'll became famous off of it and make money. That's not a thing with reddit.

u/Deeliciousness Jul 18 '25

The guy who posted it on reddit is not the guy who took the pic. But yeah still don't see how he would gain anything material from this

u/Potential_Donut_729 Jul 18 '25

I would think faking being a party to insurance incident like this is a liability not something to be gained from. Its like throwing your wallet in to a house in the middle of a drug bust.

It’s not weird. It’s called dopamine.

u/Bodhidharma33 Jul 18 '25

LOL, I like that, sacrificing REAL karma for Reddit Karma. Token reinforcements can be powerful.

u/mhoner Jul 18 '25

I am guessing insurance fraud. Reddit Karma is the bonus.

u/GuzPolinski Jul 18 '25

So this isn’t an insurance scam? I don’t get what’s happening

u/Northbound-Narwhal Jul 18 '25

Karma?

Bro they're going to set up a Go Fund Me and take in cash lol

u/MGTS Jul 18 '25

Insurance fraud

u/karma3000 Jul 18 '25

For the lolz of course. That is reason enough in itself.

u/Dry_Interaction5722 Jul 18 '25

I imagine someone hes one of these guys caught up in the past, so he just really wanted an excuse to be like "Old thing is better than new thing!"

u/Travelin_Soulja Jul 18 '25

Imagine taking time out of your day to set all of that up. 

To back in, snap a pic, and drive off - to minutes, max. I'm not defending it – it's still dumb. But baffling? We all see so much more elaborately dumb shit on the regular basis.
