The YouTuber was ripping the Ferrari through a dry cornfield in Texas when it caught fire.
Watch a YouTuber Abuse This Ferrari F8
A video published by the 25-year-old YouTuber on Friday shows the car being thrashed at high speed through a cornfield in Waco, Texas. As it plows away, the 710-horsepower F8 is seen sucking up a ton of dry crop in its face and rear wheel areas. Then, the fire happened. The blaze appears to start in the area of its rear right wheel and climb up through the mid-engined supercar's engine bay. WhistlinDiesel—also known as Cody Detwiler—and his crew desperately try to put out the blaze with any liquids handy, including a Red Bull, but have no luck. The fire quickly spreads to their film van, making the scene even more chaotic.
"I don't care about the cars. It's fine," Detwiler says on video. "Just keep it from spreading onto the field.". His first video with the car, published in February, had the title "I bought a $400,000 Ferrari just to destroy it." In that piece, WhistlinDiesel slid the car around on grass, dirt, and gravel, bouncing off the limiter repeatedly, and even slapped a fence with the car.
