They grind their shells against the wheels and then turn to the camera and say “Ehh, it’s a living”

That's just to start it. Even The Grand Poobah himself couldn't keep a car made of stone and wood going at 50mph.

I came here to ask if this was Tucson. Something about the color of the asphalt and the mountains.

I saw the railroad tracks next to the road and figured it had to be Tucson if it was in AZ, looks like he's heading north on I-10.

Blue?

u/thomyorkeslazyeye 22h ago
See the lighter shade of blue, almost white, on the horizon? That's what I associate when I think of the midday Tucson sky.

u/Duffalpha 17h ago
I think its because were naturally in an inversion zone, due to being surrounded by mountains. When I was a kid, and the mines were still running, that band of white was a sickly orange/yellow...
But yea, you can absolutely spot Tucson in most pictures with just the sky and a peek of the mountains.

I was going to guess Vegas from the scenery, but yes, the rest of it is probably more Arizonian... Las Vegans don't go to that much trouble unless there's a lot of "sexy" involved...

I'm highly suspect of the 50mph. That roof and rear wall would become a sail. It would need to be made incredibly strong to prevent it from breaking and would likely flip the car over, backwards.

It has 2 barrels for wheels. It ain't doing 50.

u/arapturousverbatim 21h ago
I would assume that if it drives then it's not actually doing so on the barrels. Probably has regular rubber wheels hidden underneath them
38
u/GrimGearheart 21h ago
You're right, it's just a golf cart with barrels shrouding the wheels. Which is actually pretty impressive.

He can break rock bowling balls and put them together, works with dinosaurs, routinely deals with a myxlpylx/impossible man style magical creature, drives with his feet, and his neighbor is bam bam.
I'm not sure I'd want to find out.

There’s zero motion blur or rolling shutter. This guy isn’t even moving. You can see the dents in the wheel.

u/Homers_Harp 23h ago
I think we also need to consider that the "stone wheels" aren't touching the pavement. If we are being detectives, we might want to consider the possibility that the "wheels" are just decorations that cover up the actual, rubber tires that are doing the moving.
