YouTuber Watches His $400,000 Ferrari F8 Tributo Burn After Driving Through Cornfield

Popular YouTuber WhistlinDiesel has made a name for himself with daring stunts and wild custom builds. He also has become synonymous with destroying cars and has just ruined two more, namely a Ferrari F8 Tributo and a Chrysler Pacifica rental. This time, however, the two vehicles were wrecked inadvertently.

As part of a series where he tests the durability of the Ferrari F8, the YouTuber headed to Waco, Texas and was driving the expensive, mid-engined exotic through a cornfield. It looks like heaps of fun and even though Ferrari would have never envisioned for an F8 to be driven like this, it appears to perform well. However, things quickly took a turn for the worse.

As the YouTuber was driving, his film crew in the Pacifica noticed fire coming out from the back of the car. He quickly brings the Ferrari to a stop and rushes out, as does his passenger and all of those in the Chrysler. The fire appears to have started at the exhaust and quickly spread, engulfing the passenger-side rear wheel. Unfortunately, no one had any water on them at the time and despite their best efforts to douse the flames with Gatorade and Red Bull, it began to quickly spread.

Seconds later, the Pacifica also caught fire but it doesn’t appear as though the Ferrari fire spread to it but rather it caught fire itself, likely because the hot engine and exhaust were left to rest on the dried plants littering the field. Those on the scene quickly realize there’s no way to douse the flames quickly enveloping the Chrysler and the Ferrari and start to pull out their belongings from the two cars and call the fire department.

Fire crews arrived on the scene a few minutes later and quickly extinguished the flames that had started to spread across the cornfield. However, they couldn’t save either of the two cars.
