Watch: Man records prank with BMW M4, learns a costly lesson

Many people are buying expensive sports cars these days but not all are investing in them for the performance they offer. Expensive sports cars are also work well for grabbing attention on social media and many content creators have now started using them as props to generate viral content. A video of one such creator has surfaced online, who used his satin pink BMW M4to record a prank video but the attempt presumably led to a disaster.Watch the video below to see what happened.

As we can see in the video, the content creator stepped out of the moving BMW M4 and even moved away from it, sat on the footpath, while the expensive sports car kept rolling towards a left hand curve. When the subject finally attempted to re-enter and gain control of the car, the door did not open and the car was on a collision course by this point. It is common knowledge that modern cars have a self-lock feature when in motion.

While the video is certainly a lesson for all, the fact that the footage cuts right before the car was about to crash, also hints towards the entire scenario being staged. It cannot be said for certain if the video creator learnt a costly lesson or the video was created to prank other social media users. Either way, it does leave the viewer with a lasting impression.
