The creators of the “How Ridiculous” channel have brought the vehicle destruction to a whole new level. This time, commissioned a giant steel dart, weighing 1250 pounds , and dropped it from a crane onto a Chrysler PT Cruiser. The team, known for their extreme experiments, decided that the idea of a “mega” dart they had seen in another video wasn’t big enough for their standards, so they went further.
The video shows how the giant dart, precisely designed to replicate a conventional one, but on a much larger scale, crashes into the car. The feat was a resounding success, as the dart flew through the car and landed on a dart board strategically placed underneath the vehicle, hitting the target from almost 60 meters high.

The team also experimented with other objects before tackling the car, such as sheets of paper, a tire and even a toy dinosaur. These pre-trials added excitement to the more than 20-minute video that has captured the attention of millions of viewers.

Comments from fans were not long in coming. One suggested that the dart might stabilize better if the fins were painted to detect any imbalance during the fall. Another noted that this might be the channel’s most impressive experiment to date, which has amassed more than 22 million followers.
With every video, How Ridiculous continues to engage its audience with increasingly wacky ideas, showing that creativity knows no bounds when it comes to entertainment on YouTube.
