Standing in the position of a YouTuber, surely, what we care about and are most obsessed with is the number of views and interactions for the clips uploaded. Because of this, recently, some videos on YouTube have started to appear with quite a few inappropriate contents and tricks, primarily aimed at creating curiosity and shock to attract interactions from viewers. In Vietnam, this is not too strange. However, playing shockingly like this guy Litvin, a Russian YouTuber, is extremely rare, as just recently, Litvin stunned the online community by setting fire to a luxurious BMW in a very “over-the-top” manner.
Specifically, on the 7th of this month, Litvin – a name quite famous on YouTube with over 8 million followers – shocked everyone by posting his “car burning” clip to celebrate the New Year. In fact, this is not the first time Litvin has taken such abrupt actions. Two years ago, he did something similar by burning his Mercedes-Benz AMG GT just because he was not too satisfied with the product quality. This time, Litvin chose a BMW M5 Competition to destroy.
What’s even more surprising is that this car does not belong to Litvin but is actually the property of his close friend. Driving the car into the snow, pouring gasoline all over it, and casually grilling sausages nearby, Litvin, after being well-fed, decided to activate the destruction of the car with a “rocket arrow,” just like in medieval films. In fact, the shockwave from the explosion was enough to knock Litvin down, even though he was standing quite far away.
The realistic and sharp scenes like a movie made Litvin’s fans and the online community unable to hide their admiration. To the point that many even forgot the detail that this was not the YouTuber’s BMW anymore. Currently, the video has garnered over 6 million views and this number continues to rise.
In a subsequent interview, Litvin shared that this was not a trick video to gain views but primarily to commemorate his close friend, the owner of the burnt BMW, who passed away last year.
