I love you
Ok
YES YOUR BACK
stupid NOOB LOL
You actually posted lol
The absolute balls of naming your company Nikola and then turning around to sue Tesla for causing brand confusion.
And then for Musk to steal the truck grift idea
the gall
ruclips.net/video/w__a8EcM2jI/video.html
Lmao I didn’t notice this up until now, speaking of hiding in plain sight!
i gotta be real I though Nikola Motors was some euphemism he was using for Tesla Motors until I read this comment
Absolutely
Just imagine Elon would *STEAL THE NAME .THE BORING COMPANY*
people would notice..........
And not point at others
The fact a company called Hindenburg basically crippled a hydrogen fuel company is nothing short of heavenly coincidence
Hindenburg: "We are on a mission from God"
Lmaoo
I'd think they found them by googling for hydrogen.
Gotta keep the supply for themselves
They're a *short sale* firm. Their whole business model is looking for disasters before they happen. That is some morbidly on-point theme naming.
Most recent update: Trevor Milton is currently being indicted for criminal fraud
Lol
I'm amazed it took this long.
finally
Elon better be next. He has multiple scams running for years.
Just that? We all know he's probably guilty of much more. All these wall street types who pretend to be innovators always are.
"Okay our rival company is called 'Edison', what should we call ours?"
"Uhhh, Thomas..?"
The tank engine company
@neonbelly4 introducing the T 1 "thomas" tank
Yeah, what?
@its_my_RUclips_account wdym
"let's add alva too!"
This is literally "Fake it till you make it" except he never makes it
BUT HE SURE FAKED IT!
Oha,i Theranos, how you-WHY ARE YOU RUNNING ???
XD
@Ramsey276one calm down
Iveco produced some working prototypes for them. So if they are able to sell the trucks that Iveco produces for them, they will succeed. So fake it till someone else makes it for you.
He does kind of make it though, in that he lives an extremely nice lifestyle whilst doing nothing of merit. He was paid handsomely the entire time.
Pocketing 3 billion dollars would be considered as making it in my book.
Update: Trevor Milton’s been found guilty of defrauding investors by misleading them about the technology in the trucks in order to increase the company’s share price
🥳
How many years?
@blakksheep736 "Sentencing has been delayed until June 2023 while Milton appeals the conviction and the court reviews his request for a new trial based on his claims that a juror lied during jury selection"
@justinkaz ohhhhh it's about time too
@blakksheep736i hope Trevor Fraud Meltdown Milton will get 20 years prison 😂😂
Best part of this channel is forgetting it exists until you are pleasantly surprised in your sub box.
Yeah, actually
Pretty much
Wow, you're so right - profound 👌🏻
Accurate
Yes
The fact that the hedgefund exposing a hydrogen truck company is called "Hindenburg" is too perfect :D
Idk bro sometimes the writing team seems a bit too on the nose. Oh well, here's hoping 2021 leads to even wackier hijinks
Coincidence?
I THINK NOT
Oh, the humanity!
wait, what do i miss? i don't understand
@akkico the Hindenburg burned because it used hydrogen since it’s a flammable
I remember Patrick Boyle saying that the company should’ve been named “Newton,” since it created the world’s first gravity powered truck.
"Gravity powered? Sounds hi tech! I'll take 500 shares!"
-The average clueless investor
@rwberger6 More money than sense
💚 Patrick!
Patrick's rap acuity is uncanny
Nikola Motors was the largest distributed IQ test in stock market history.
😂😂yeah basically
My sister invested in that cause she couldn't afford Tesla and thought it would succeed, with no prior knowledge of the company. She's dumb
@aniketghosh6993 f
So glad I invested in NKLA... by shorting its stock.
Until... doge
I remember not being surprised at all when GM announced they were buying into Nikola. If there's a bankruptcy to be had, no doubt GM wants in on it.
Lmao
Gm and bankruptcies go together like Jack and coke
That’s how money is made. Pump and dump then short squeez
That's the funniest thing I've ever read in my life. I've been giggling like an idiot for 5 minutes and my wife is giving me the side eye
@domgoodwin8989isn't it Ford and bankruptcy
Lr, jaguar, mazda etc
Honestly if I had a legit company I’d probably wanna hire these guys for marketing, if they can push a company that far with no product imagine what they could do with one
No you don’t, these guys marketing is usually just straight up illegal and fraudulent numbers. Give it a couple of weeks and you’ll be overflowing with lawsuits
@courier6960 Yup, they'll turn your perfectly working product into a lie.
"Why report 5% savings when you can report 50%?"
Well when you can make up any claims about your product of course it's going to sell. It's straight up fraud. Most real products have pros and cons not just 100% pros. Drawbacks are a part of reality.
It's pretty easy to market something that doesn't exist, because you can say whatever you want about it.
@skipfred yknow what that’s totally fair
I remember that Nikola released an article, where they talked about how their truck has got a supercomputer inside which powers it. The only problem is, that they said, that it ran on HTML (they claimed, that HTML was the global standard for all programmers). For anyone who doesn't know what that means, HTML is used to make websites. It cannot do anything to do with logic, all it can do is make the visual part of a website. It's like an ostrich, its technically a bird, but it cannot fly or do things that other birds can do. HTML is technically a programming language, but at the same time it can't do any logic or stuff like that, which an actual programming language has.
Markup isn't programming.
@Alhadis html + css: now we are
Of all languages they could have used why HTML lol
I can imagin him searching for "most used programing language" before the interview and seeing people saying it was HTML on some forum post or some shit like that
How
Treacherously
Man
Lies
!?!
I remember a bit of a snob programer at work going on rants about how "HTML is for little girls that add frills to everything. It's like adding a bunch of stickers to something, not building it." and I think it was because he just liked being a dick when we asked him for help, but it was funny how he came with weird insults to something so benign.
"Things were going downhill quickly"
_cuts to the Nikola Truck "driving footage"_
11/10 editing
Y7yu7u
I laughed when I saw that
I get the pun
Yes. I had a moment there too lol
Congrats on getting the joke
a shorting investment company being called Hindenburg is quite possibly the more genius thing Ive ever heard
I love how Nikola Motors almost got scammed the same way they are scamming xD
Game recognize game.
It's a surprisingly common occurrence. No one really wants to be in a position where they are scamming people, as it's going to blow up eventually, so it makes sense people try to find easy outs to their problems.
That would have been marriage made in heaven. What kind of batteries does a non-existing truck need? Correct, non-existing batteries!
I'm always surprised how far these scumbags get with just lying. We truely live in a society
Will Humanity ever develop tech to replace fossil fuels? Or will liars and cheats just drag us downward to Hell?
Exactly
If you take a pile of shit and say it’s worth 2 billion dollars and someone agrees then there’s nothing illegal about it
Modern artists know this too well
Shame is what stops most of us from achieving greatness
@griffingamer8624 fossil fuels is not even efficient, renewables is what we need, especially seeing how much destruction fossil fuels have done
@griffingamer8624 What are you trying to say? This technology already exists.
They shared their first office with ours when I was going to a coding bootcamp. It was literally 2 rooms in the back, and that was shortly after they got their first "big break" back in 2015. I couldn't believe that was their HQ for a company that was supposedly creating the future of trade transportation. Everything that's happened to them after that has been no surprise to me
The three dislikes are from Trevor, Pinball Engineer, and Golf Course manager.
Could be because of all the annoying fade out transitions
@comboballer I hope it's not, that would be very petty and honestly didn't even notice it.
What about his brother. The "hydrogen Expert"
The Team Fortress 3 lineup is looking fresh
Wait a week and you'll find the head count of Nikola Motors Company through the dislikes. :)

Ahh yes RUclips copyright Abuse as much as you like no penalty for you but the RUclipsr gets screwed.
Should RUclipsrs unionize?

“Honey wake up”
“It’s 3AM”
I know a Big Boss video just dropped”
“Oh”
It actually released for me around that time, although I'm watching it now, at 5 AM lol.
@knoxctry1569 Does it matter?
It was at 11 pm for me
huh
guess he's back
back again
Big Boss back
tell a friend
You and IH are like two slightly different flavors of soda. Similar yet distinct, both delicious.
Yes i always wait for their glorious videos
Ikr
Yeah
Pls sorry but who is IH?
@FoxtrotFN internet historian. great lad
19:32 does that does like "oohh shh!!!!t"?
Yes
Yes it does
It's good that I'm watching this before nikola strikes you down lmao
They are dead right now they aren’t going to strike big boss
nah mate, at the start he made it system manipulation proof
When he brings out the Todd Howard clips you know what he's saying is going to be completely untrue
Dude don't worry it just works all of this just works
@McLovin18-88 little lies ,stunning shows people buy, money flows, it just works
@rustydustyzeus1839 it just works, it just works, earnings rise, take my word.
That fucking lying fuck Thief Howard.
SIXTEEN times the detail!
Oh boy what a crazy guy! I hope he serves the extent of his sentence!!! His crimes will forever be remembered as a cautionary tale of the horrible consequences of lying!
Well, he got pardoned by Trump, so that's not happening.
@alaeriia01 he would have been jailed for only 4 years, wich seems too little
Oh Weary Traveller, I must warn you of the seas of “when the world needed him most he returned” comments. If you must, relax at this campfire and rest...
Thanks I brought some marshmallows
I'm gonna hang back here and roast me a bone.
"Well, what do we have here? You must be a new arrival.
Let me guess. Fate of the Undead, right? Well, you're not the first.
But there's no salvation here. You'd have done better to rot in the Undead Asylum… But, too late now.
Well, since you're here… Let me help you out.
There are actually two Bells of Awakening.
One's up above, in the Undead Church. The other is far, far below, in the ruins at the base of Blighttown.
Ring them both, and something happens… Brilliant, right?
Not much to go on, but I have a feeling that won't stop you.
So, off you go. It is why you came, isn't it? To this accursed land of the Undead?
Hah hah hah hah…"
@N8_DoubleYou ayyyy
Mind if I take a nap on that bedroll over there?
Your editing is astounding Sir! No wonder it takes months of work for each video!!! Kudos!!!
Here before the verified comment gets any like
No kidding this is amazing.
Damn I see you everywhere that I don't expect. Lol
Hey there Guru Larry
bruh he just copied internet historian
Dude, I just wish I had the same persuasion skills as Trevor Miller, dude is literally making billions out of thin air just by talking.
welll....teechnically you *could* call it thin air since hydrogen tech...if it wasnt a scam
Bloody brilliant stuff man, never hear about this before but your story telling is great.
The truck rolling down the hill is glorious
I decided to look this company up to see what they're up to these days. I was surprised to learn that not only are they still in business, but they're apparently now manufacturing and selling actual electric semi trucks that work and are in active use. Mind you, these are NOT hydrogen-powered (they use conventional batteries, probably lithium-ion) and they promised to deliver "300 to 500" of them this year but have only managed to produce 125 and deliver 111 as of September, but still, I suppose that's a major improvement over rolling non-functional prototypes down a hill. At least they now have a product that exists, is for sale, and works as advertised.
Never fear, though, their website says they'll deliver a hydrogen-powered model next year! Only about 7 years after they first presented the technology as basically ready to go! And coincidentally, it will be the same year Tesla plans to release their own (battery powered) electric semi truck! I sense great potential for a sequel to this video.
You mean to tell me that Nikola sued Tesla? I don’t care what the brands actually are, that’s just the best crossover I’ve ever heard of
Nikola did sue Tesla over "brand confusion" after having picked that name specifically to try to tack themselves off Tesla's success.
Which is hilarious considering that everything people were accusing Tesla of doing, Nikola was actually doing, and nearly got away with it too.
@mobiuscoreindustries if it wasn't for those meddling-
Nikola testa would blush at the fact that 2 electrical cars companies are named after him and then fell shame at their actions
testa 🥀🥀🥀🥀
Nikola CEO: *sees Tesla*
*smacks lips*
I can do that
Phenomenal editing!
Hey Dustin
Better invest in those Boomer stocks.
domp it
The end killed me.
Your vids suck, gtfo
"Making them worth more than Ford Motor Company in 2 days"
I do not understand how the retail investor can possibly have such a deep seated and fanatical hatred of their own money. I mean, at this point I'm sure you could put a couple of AA's in a Tonka truck and get a market valuation of $100 billion dollars
_"I do not understand how the retail investor can possibly have such a deep seated and fanatical hatred of their own money."_
Hungrier the fisherman - Brighter the bait.
Honestly, the sheer arrogance to think this new thing you've never even seen is just blowing Ford out of the water...
Aren't rivian shorts looking tempting
Desperate people thinking they can get in on the ground floor of the next Tesla, and the dangerous power of greed coupled with wishful thinking
No surprise. Tech stocks are insanely overvalued, and every investor is looking for the next Apple.
February 19th 2025: Nikola Declares Chapter 11 Bankruptcy.
And now this guy is free
The Tf2 references in this video are underrated.
WoBu1 so?
@MarunedShip so?
@knoxcool9657 So?
@NijahPlays so?
@NijahPlays so?
I can't believe he name his company Nikola it's like making a phone company and name it Orange
oh wait
There's this European phone service provider named Orange
@freeshit2179 yh but they like the colour not the the fruit
Imma make Doors PCs
I just played a Switch game by DADAI
(Japanese for Orange. THAT IS THE LOGO)
XD
13:05 He thinks he is a The Engineer from TF2.
Update 3/29/25: Donald Trump just gave Trevor a full and unconditional pardon. Oddly enough, Trevor donated to certain PACs and campaigns, though I'm sure that has nothing to do with the pardon...
He's already trying to play the victim. He started a RUclips channel under his full name and there's a preview of a documentary proclaiming his innocence.
I like Trump a lot, but if that's true, that's disgusting.
@martymcfly88mph35 the problem with liking a politician
@martymcfly88mph35as someone who dislike trump his second term is amazing for America
@martymcfly88mph35 Same
I drive by Nikola HQ every day, and even used to deliver pizza to one of the night security guards there. Glad I decided not to invest in them lol.
Is the investment going well?
@heistingcrusader_ad3223 "Glad I decided not to invest in them lol."
Still delivering Pizzas?
@johnsalchichon777 "used to deliver pizza"
Did you walk by the HQ everyday?
Three years after this video came out, Nikola has finally declared bankruptcy.
Rest in Piss, Nikola Motors.
When the world needed him the most, he came back
Came here to post this
@User no u
Yes he has
I see this every time a youter doesn't post for 6+ months.
@User no one fucking asked for your opinion you little bitch
When we needed him the most. He came like the majestic hussars under Vienna.
When the winged hussars arrive!
Coming down the mountainside!!!
@avranjones9980 *COMING DOWN, THEY TURNED THE TIDE!*
And these replies are why everyone hates sabaton fans
@eatathepizza4449 ah it's all in good fun :D
Bro the battery from tarkov 😂 17:00
The car is bullsh*t powered. Such a green energy isn't it.
But the methane!
DHRMP You missed the joke my dude.
@DrunkieCat Neat, the car is powered by cow manure. Let’s all buy cows to s*** in our cars!
Put a twitter user in it. Infinite power.
@DrunkieCat The production of the fuel is *free,* self-sufficient in *gigantic* scales, and you don't even need an engine to run it in. That's some 23rd century stuff, and we're complainin'..
9:58 Legit thought to myself that his ex employee looked a lot like Eminem only to realize it was part of a joke.
Yep it’s a scene from a movie called The Interview that Eminem was actually in. But no it had nothing to do with Nikola lol
so... he's out...
season 2 coming soon?
Dude just got a pardon lol
Sir we need a follow up given... Events.
he really likes that shade of blue + grey for his logos are all the same
So frustrating, as someone who's worked in startup electric vehicle companies, it's massively underestimated at how difficult it is to make a mass produced vehicle of any sort but also totally achievable with the right goals and leadership.
It seems like this focus on share values is muddying the waters for a lot of these companies but, as Tesla shows, it's a much quicker way to make money than actually producing cars.
19:29 i just realise that the voices are saying "oh shit"
I didn't even realize. I played a video with a cuss word in it without even realizing it. And my parents heard it. 😂😭
I seriously doubt this guy ever had one real engineer working for him
"A short selling company called Hindenburg" I fucken fell off my chair with laughter.
they apparently pretty good at sniffing at fraud
20:24 The youtube copyright bit...
Absolute gold ✨ 😁 ✨
So a company named after Nikola Tesla got their truck design from a man from Croatia where Nikola Tesla is originally from.
Croatia be like: *You Couldn't Live with Your Own Failure, Where Did that Bring You? Back to Me*
THE LEGEND IS BACK
I can’t say it enough but I Definitely agree
Kept you waiting. Huh
WTF happen?
Thelegend27.
fraud is legal now though
OMG that little girl feeding spaghetti to her dog meme at 4:20 is ridiculous and I love it
Trevor Milton just got pardoned by the president. That's unbelievable, I guess being a criminal is really affordable these days.
Update: He was pardoned after wiring 2 mil to trump
12:07 "They're sued immediately." That bit caught me out. I cried Laughing
Trevor seems to forget he has to build the stuff he proposed multiple times
Hindenburg is such a great name for a company given their operations, also great video!
Theres a hundred and 4 days of RUclips vacatioon- then Big Boss finally drops us another videooooo
4:35 I thought you gonna say "16X times of details" right here 😂
"I thought you were dead"
"My death was greatly exaggerated"
megamind
The battery at 17:02 is giving me flashbacks
Nikola is a clothing company, they produce bag holers out of their shareholders. 99 % of their "investors" at $12/share
now 10$ a share
Never heard of this company before and I was wondering why their logo looked so familiar and I realized it looks exactly like the Natron logo, an open source node based compositing software.
O
M
F
G
REALLY!?!
Just checked. You're absolutely right.
Dude, you remind me SO MUCH, of the internet historian.
21:22 Bernie Madoff also died today coincidentally!
Hi
You a time traveler?
Weirddddddd right!
Or was it?
So did my uncle
Investment Lesson 101 : Never invest in a company which doesn't have finished products yet.
People ant to get rich fast by buying cheap stocks to every startup. Repeat the same thing investors did with Apple, Amazon, Tesla, Netflix, Facebok and others back in the day, but htis time with Nikola, Theranos, among others.
@L30n4rdo6 I don't think you should count Apple, Amazon, Facebook in it not only they had their business in operation but also they were profiting before issuing shares for expansion of business.
@Hakim_Diwan What I was trying to say is that people want to put their money in whatever they believe it Will brings them profits, and they will see these startups as an easy money tactics.
I know Facebook, Amazon, Netflix, Tesla and others are succesful, but others are frauds such as Theranos and Nikola motors.
@L30n4rdo6 Oh in that case I agree. Emotions are the biggest enemy of an investor.
@L30n4rdo6 "people wanna put money in whatever they think will bring them profits" Yeah I should invest in things that are guaranteed to make me lose money instead
Bruh how did this dude get pardoned 😹😹
Because he gave trump money
The classic "big wad of cash" trick
Imagine shutting down a website because it was too successful lol. That should really be warning sign for anybody new to this business
20:40 that youtube part had me rolling on the floor lol
Buying the design for a truck called "Nikola" from a Croatian man is like the most ironic thing that can happen in history :D
He was serbian but ima say its close enough
@Cakii-b7f do not start this war again.
@mrsupremegascon his parents were serbian but he was born in modern day croatia, those are just facts
@Cakii-b7f His grandpa was Croat who converted to orthodox.
It's not ironic at all. You need to look up what irony is.
It's always a good day when big boss uploads
9:58 is the funniest clip in this video xD
loved this video
the first time I’ve only seen 1 reply on a verified youtuber
Verified moment
That person at 0:41 was literally smoking a cigarette while filling up gas right over the tank.
Just... wow.
There's a Nikola truck that delivers to the plant I work at, it's pretty neat. The driver said he loves it
When big boss puts out a video I drop everything. Work, cooking, my baby. My wife is upset because he won’t stop crying, but I’m sure they’d understand if they could watch this.
Now that's what I call determination.
@antithotsensei3073 this is MOTIVATION
10:15 I don't know why but that knock sound effect made me think it was coming from the window behind my desk and scared the shit out of me.
Same lmao
I love the 'however's
I love the fact it's such a blatant rip-off of Teslas idea of a zero emission transport, that they used the SAME GUY FOR THEIR NAME
The first of many red flags.
18:48
bruuuuh not Electro Boom😂😂
I almost bought 100 shares when it was still looked promising, but something smelled wrong and I didn't go through with it. It's astonishing to me that anyone would still be invested in this company.
Sunk cost fallacy, probably.
You could have made money if you sold just before the Hindenburg report. Or wait an extra day and get fucked lol
"and certain other market factors" never fails to crack me up
Dude hats off... you even masked the guy at 6:44 for a couple frames that noone would notice. I noticed; my fellow perfectionist.
Showing William Osman when talking about the "Chief Engineer" position is just *chef's kiss*.
“Call me Nikola Tesla, impeccably dressed” -- ERB

luckily ReVanced auto-skips it
5:30 wait. People bought pictures with no actual product?

You're videos are excellent. Please make more.
The reuse of some segments can actually enhance the experience for a variety of reasons including Todd Howard's broken promises.
The film and movie references are my favourite - I try to remember where they're from. I really enjoy these :)
