Crazy CarPOOLing Video: Lex Friedman Look-Alike Takes Waterlogged Ride

A recent video titled "CarPOOLing" has taken Reddit by storm, sparking a torrent of comments and laughter. The video features a car, seemingly converted into a makeshift pool, filled with what appears to be half a ton of water. The absurdity of the scenario is compounded by the driver, who amusingly resembles Lex Friedman, wearing socks while navigating this soaking wet adventure.

Viewers couldn't help but chime in with their thoughts. One user humorously noted, "Braking must be fun," while another pointed out the obvious, "That's got to be one heavy car at the moment!" The unusual attire of the driver led to the question, "Why's he wearing SOCKS?"

The video also attracted comments predicting the inevitable outcome of such a stunt. One user remarked, "Soon to be seen on r/whatcouldgowrong," while another speculated about the consequences, "A few guys in India tried to do this and their license got suspended." The scene led to a playful exchange: "Do I need to pull over at a rest stop so you can pee?" "No, that’s ok…"

The physics behind the situation didn't go unnoticed either, with someone quipping, "Newton's first law has entered the chat." The car's suspension was a major concern as another user commented, "RIP suspension." The overall consensus was that the stunt was impressively foolish, "Wow that's dumb in like 5 different ways. Impressively dumb really. 🤣"

Some users speculated about the origin of the idea, suggesting, "The guy driving the car is the owner probably and the other two convinced him it was a great idea 💀" Practical advice was also offered, "PSA: Tarps aren’t waterproof."

One user humorously suggested, "Wrong sub...idiotsincars," while another pointed out the potential aftermath, "Looks like maybe a half ton of water there." The video also sparked a reflection on adulthood, "I can tell I am an adult when this doesn't amuse me but I only think of consequences."

The video is a perfect example of how a light-hearted and somewhat reckless stunt can capture the collective imagination of the internet. Despite the fun, it's a reminder of the potential dangers and consequences of such actions. Whether it's the resemblance to Lex Friedman or the sheer absurdity of driving a car filled with water, "CarPOOLing" is a must-watch for a good laugh and a lesson in what not to do with your vehicle.
