A YouTuber showed the stainless-steel hood of the $80,000 Tesla Cybertruck could cut off our fingers through a "carrot test."

It is famous for being a stainless steel-hood car with great designs and colors, making many people fascinated.

Although it costs up to $80,000, you could lose a finger or even your entire hand if you forget them in this "guillotine".

A YouTuber conducted a carrot test to prove the $80,000 Tesla Cybertruck is a real guillotine.

A group of YouTubers called Out of Spec Reviews used sturdy vegetables similar to human hands to show us what would happen if we left our fingers on Tesla Cybertruck's stainless-steel car.

At the beginning of the video, the man used a carrot and placed it on the edge of the car's rear hood. Instantly, the carrot was cut perfectly as the hood closed.

Next, he continued testing on the front door of the car. A carrot was cut in half immediately when the door closed.

He increased the number of carrots to two to prove that the Cybertruck's stainless-steel car is a guillotine machine. As a result, both were quickly cut in half when the car door closed.

Remarkably, a bag of sausages was also neatly cut when put into the car's door.

The car doors and the remaining parts, such as the front hood or rear hood of the stainless steel car, can easily cut off your fingers.

This test demonstrates that electric vehicles can pose a risk to human appendages and their food when trapped between the closing tailgate and the vehicle's body.

Can other electric vehicles cut off human fingers?

The YouTuber has conducted similar tests on other electric vehicles such as the Rivivan R1T, the safest electric vehicle among current EV trucks, or Tesla's Model X, and rival electric trucks such as the F-150 Ford's Lightning.

All have anti-pitch sensors and anti-pitch catches to protect human safety. Carrots placed under the edge of their hoods remain intact after the hood closes.

Unfortunately, human safety features have been removed from Tesla's $80,000 stainless-steel hood car.

Many people worry that rear passengers, especially children, could have their arms amputated if their hands get stuck when closing.

Tesla fabricated the Cybertruck's body panels from 1.8 mm thick stainless steel panels, which are not folded to the edges. Therefore, they will leave a sharper edge than usual.

When they combine closely, they can destroy anything stuck in the middle.

"You can see the sharp corner of the stainless steel is cut perfectly, and then the trunk is not capable of pinch detection which will cut off your fingers in half," a TikTok user @molesrcool explained.

$80,000 Tesla Cybertruck's structure

Tesla's $80,000 stainless-steel hood is 6-foot-long, 4-foot-wide. It can bring up to 2,5000 pounds, has a towing capacity of 11,000 pounds, and has 17 inches of ground clearance.

Tesla has developed a stainless steel alloy to construct the Cybertruck's body.

The stainless steel used in the Cybertruck's body is corrosion-resistant, doesn't need paint, and is suitable for mass production.
