Cybertruck destroyed in rollover in Chinese desert 😱

[WHIZZARD OF OZ]

Everything I see looks consistent with rolling a Cybertruck multiple times down a sand dune in China or the Middle East. I'm not a language expert, but my bet is the video is in the same country as the language of the individuals.

First, know that the dune is a lot steeper than it looks in video.
Second, it looks like the accident happened at least a day before the video, based upon how the sand has filled in around the tire and the markings in the sand where it rolled.
Third, it looks like the glass has already been stripped, in preperation for recovery from the desert.

Both countries have people so wealthy that this would be like dropping and cracking one's cellphone to the average American. Only it was probably a lot more fun getting to that point here.

Why doesn't the sand look like a truck rolled over in it. LOTS of footstep marks below the truck downhill but uphill... not much. I'm very suspicious of this.
Only thing I could see to make this real is if this was done days before and left there, the wind has moved the sand a lot and many onlookers on the nearby trail visited it by foot?

Isn't there a debris trail leading to the Cybertruck? From uphill? Where the sand looks like a truck was rolling side over side down the hill? Me thinks so.

No CyberTruck was ever imported into China.

Not imported by Tesla. I'm sure there are Cybertrucks in China, privately imported. Plenty of time for that.

Probably one less after this incident.

We all knew it couldn’t fly, now any news on one being sunk?

All I can say is that it appears as if the truck's safety system did their job. It appears that the occupants could easily walk away from this incident.

To import legally, the car has to pass the national standard, which has not happened yet. In addition, what these people spoke is not Chinese. So I highly suspect this is somewhere in Middle East, and rich royal family can do whatever they want, including killing journalists in other countries.

The accident happened in the Alxa Desert in Inner Mongolia. The Cybertruck rolled down a steep hill and it appears to be badly damaged. It was a gray-imported truck. It was not registered for use on the road and not insured. See photo for the truck before the crash. It was wrapped but otherwise standard. The Cybertruck is not officially marketed in China so Tesla shops won't be able to repair it. There are about a dozen gray-import Cybertrucks in China at the moment. Gray market import also happened with the Tesla Model S and X before these cars were officially launched on the Chinese market. The S and X, however, could be legally registered for road use. The Cybertruck cannot.

Are we looking at the same thing? That Cybertruck won't be walkin' anywhere.

OK, limp it off then.

Valid.

dash cam footage or it didn't happen

Since the air bags get deployed, I assume that Sentry recording was activated?

(Sigh) The Cybertruck is in bondage in many countries today. We shall strive to break these chains!

Easily walk away.... Across hundreds of miles of desert. Not sure how easy the walk was.

At least they had the chance to.

And if you are out on the dunes all alone, maybe you should rethink what you are doing.
But pretty sure that this was a group of people.
