"As long as the driver has a pilot's license, there's nothing we can do. You could call the FAA..." - Police
He gets a 9.5 for that hang time...holy shit!
🤣🤣🤣
He was flying IFR that's how he knew what was on the other side
He did NOT butter that landing 😂
We got a number for you to call bud
“It’s only property damage” fuck am I glad I don’t live in a place protected by the LAPD
I spent a year in LA. Hated it. Everyone is conceited and always in a bad mood, and the same goes for LAPD (I wouldn't be surprised if the people are in a bad mood *BECAUSE* of LAPD lol.) There's so much crap, crime, and conflict going on in LA at any given moment, that roughly 60% of the time you dial 911, you get a message saying the police are too busy to take any more calls, and to try calling back in a few minutes because all officers are busy at the moment. I'm not joking. Lol... Combine that with the fact that the prison is completely overcrowded, if you get arrested, even if you didn't do anything, you're likely to be stuck in there for a couple weeks waiting for your turn to see the judge if they decided to try and charge you with a felony, which is LIKELY.
One time, I was coming up the escalator at 5th and main, downtown.. There's a group of black dudes that hang out there and sell weed and cigarettes. ONLY weed and cigarettes, they're not trying to catch anything heavy..Well, this group was the target that day and reason for the sweep, but the cops swept up and detained EVERYONE there who didn't look like they were rich and upscale and searched them, because that's how LAPD rolls.. I got stopped, of course, and the cops tore my bag apart, flipped all my pockets, frisked me, the whole nine yards..
They found my little pocket knife in my bag, a little 3 inch flip blade, which was in a little faux leather toolkit with pliers, screwdrivers, allen wrenches, you know, a basic toolkit, lol. Not uncommon to carry when you have a skateboard and hardware in your bag, too.. They charged me with felony concealment of a deadly weapon, and wrote that it was a dagger.. I spent almost two weeks in a jail cell, and when I finally saw the judge, she was frustrated as hell that she had to go through the protocol of seeing another person with a totally bogus charge that wasn't deserved, on behalf of their bonehead police department who don't give a damn about anything as long as they make an arrest.
It’s not just the lapd 🤦🏽♂️property is nation wide 😅
@@humanblockhead5726 Think you missed the part in the video where the kid was mimicking the police officer saying "It's only property damage" as a response and excuse for not taking any action, and claiming that he couldn't make an arrest or stop the meetups and car jumping. Lol.
@@johnj.jingleheimer-schmidt2069 🤣
Probably. I was saying that this happens in every state not just the lapd 😔 the system is broken . It protects more the criminals then the victims themselves
@@humanblockhead5726 It also makes criminals out to look like victims more than regularly. Lol. You can't be a rich victim (I guess you can be, look at the minecraft creator. Haha.) You're only a victim if you're in the submissive role. Being a dominant and well stacked victim is such a trashy act to play.. Karen/Chad energy.
that's actually scary. i've only seen such things in movies and games, but seeing an actual moment of it happening is crazy

How so...🤔

Not really considering it's California
@@solo7253 They won't investigate into it because it was just "Property Damage."
But, that is only shocking if you don't live in California.
Crime and stupidity pays well nowadays
I can already imagine the driver praying that their insurance company doesn’t see this so that can’t put up a traffic accident claim.
It was a rental lol
nah it was the owners, he’s had multiple problems with his models 3. So he decided to send it and he’s just going to get a new one. (Rich people problems)
That’s the model 3, a budget Tesla, no need to be rich to get one. If the driver has Tesla insurance, they monitor your driving with the car’s computer. He will get canceled after that stunt.
@@Marsbars340 actually it was a Model S, so that was the expensive Tesla. 100K. 😝 Rich guy with no brains. Probably needed toilet paper after that stunt. 😂
@@Marsbars340 it was a rental
I'm glad to see Jay and silent Bob are doing well.

I thought that immediately haha
I've driven this road-- it is beyond terrifying to drive down Reservoir Rd there in Echo at residential speed, let alone at the crazy speeds these people are doing-- just madness. These people have a death wish.
Id take it on a 10 speed, full speed down hill. Untill the bike fell over then walk down to pick it up.
@@bobbg9041 😂😂😂
It's fun asf lol
They have a murder wish. Imagine if someone was out walking, or someone pulling out of their driveway.
@@jeffreyyoungblood7438 It'd be the worst feeling if someone was right under the car as it flew down.
This is why you don't put your Tesla in "airplane mode". Though hitting your brakes in mid-air definitely helped.
But seriously the car probably sent an automatic accident report. Imagine those Tesla employees seeing the footage from like 6 cameras on the car lol
I'd pay to see that footage and the people's reactions inside the tesla
@@illuminate4622 Hahaha
Curious that the police won't investigate that. With the RUclipsr saying the driver brought them there for that jump, meaning the driver knew of the hill and still sped/drove unsafely. Simple case of reckless driving.
Several thousand pounds flying ... yeah it's definitely just a matter of time before an innocent person is maimed or killed .
Hard to believe the police aren't doing anything .
The DA doesn’t want to pursue even if the cops come with plenty of evidence
Police knows its a waste of time trying to arrest the youtuber alex choi and the next day he be walking free
Commiefornia duh
Rich kids whose parents own the police, that’s what this is
In other words, a bunch of people know who it was, everyone refuses to co-operate since they were not directly affected, but when they are they will whine and demand they are helped.
Nobody knows who was driving the vehicle
@@nikaucronin41 everyone who recorded it knows who was driving actually lol
@@user-kc8yo9yy7o chances are most of them don't, it was a rental tesla so the person wouldn't be familiar with the others, they probably met the person but know little about them.

yeaaaa, case dismissed. YOU GONE TO JAIL
When does the DA want to prosecute? Unless reckless driving ends in killing some people in the neighborhood you don’t start acting.
What you want the DA to prosecute attempted murder?
Don’t vote for Democrats
If the guy's identity can be established and it can be PROVEN he was driving at the time, a case for reckless driving (a misdemeanor) can be prepared and sent to the DA's office. Will the DA file this case when so many other charges have been decriminalized? I highly doubt it.

that is actually a DMV violation it's called reckless driving
Oh no shit sherlock
You must be fun at partoes
"that is actually a dmv violation" 🤓
Actually the driver has a pilots license and i dont think he was flying too low
Imagine if someone had been out walking their dog or something. The driver needs to be prosecuted for reckless endangerment.
AMEN!
There is no crime called attempted endangerment. Either he did or didn't endanger someone.
My dad had paper route there on Fargo St. back in 1930's, he would park his bicycle on N. Alvarado and walk down the street because it was so steep.
I know a lot of people do the street on BMX bikes and skateboards and stuff like that which is crazy but it’s mainly dangerous just to themselves
I crashed coming down Fargo on my bike and I thought I was a really good cyclist…until then 😂
Thats crazy, back in the 1930’s?!? Almost a hundred years ago haha so cool
Ur dad was around in the 1930s? How old r u?
@@mysticmac5555 maybe his father was like in his 40s when he was conceived
So reckless driving isn't something to be cited anymore?? It's just property damage?? Come on guys. People can get pulled over for having things hanging from a rear view mirror, or burned out license plate bulb, but cars can go racing down city streets airborne and there's no crime there?

@@averyfountain5493 so I'm a Karen if someone got hurt or killed
It’s LA not witcha county
I’m thinking they mean in the sense that they’re not going to sink 100 man hours into searching for some guy who’s destroying property……..it’s LA = way too much going on I suppose?? Idk really. Someone dies = objective changes. Sad but true
I heard that they also don’t know who did/caused the accident. Apparently everyone ran off out from the car when it landed and the driver isn’t being revealed..
wow!! Neighbors even recorded the occupants getting out of the wrecked Tesla and fleeing the scene of an accident but police hands are tied.
Nah, police are just lazy, but they are actually about to arrest him.
The glaringly obvious issue here isnt wreckless driving but a police departments alarmingly nonchalant attitude toward such behavior. Or maybe we give them the benefit of the doubt and no laws were broken, in that case that street should be rezoned with the quickness with some speed bumps at the very least.
How can cops not do something about it? That was REALLY DANGEROUS driving. They should have there license suspended for crazy driving like that.
They got more important things to do than using city money to track down some halfwit who already wrecked their car.
It's a Tesla that got jumped. Tesla owners have a lot of money, police are only interested in crimes committed by poor people, they can't defend themselves
ttrev ... people who live there should at least petition for the installation of a series of speed bumps especially around that intersection .
@@knotical689 dude I can right now get a brand new 270 mile range modal 3 for 63k in 2019 it was 57k.
Or I can get the cheapest car and it will be around 45k ill go tesla.
Also I'm to poor to even afford the insurance let alone buy a tesla.
They should be in jail. They were one basket ball rolling in the road away from voluntary manslaughter. That's reckless endangerment, disorderly conduct, disregard for public wellbeing at the least.

there is a spot in west Raleigh that you can almost do this. I think it's on Kaplan Dr. as a teen I remember trying to jump it with my truck pretty much every time I would drive down the road.

You would not say that if you own the stock.
Hey I drive a Tesla I ain't doin stupid shit like that ..I'm sorry u had a bad experience with some
whoa that is just being jelly bro.
The reporter briefly mentioned somebody shop has agreed to pay for the damage, why is that? Does it mean the RUclipsr who set it up is paying for it?
he was talking about the damages to the parked subaru that they hit with the tesla
The shop knew it would be huge news so now they can get a couple of news crews to come down and show the sign for "free" and show off how they care about their "neighbors and community". It's basically free advertising while doing something good for someone. Not scummy imo just smart advertising.
I hope the Tesla didnt scrape the Biden sticker off the Subaru

@@billyturner9930 Are you sure about that, he barely mentioned it. I thought it meant the RUclipsr he mentioned was paying for it.

If the driver had spent less time watching Fast and Furious and playing GTA 5, rather than studying physics and common sense, he would have known that the when you jump a car like that, it's going to land front end first.
Why does everyone always say GTA V when there are many other GTA games like it?

Lmao that was what I was waiting for too 😂
Someone thought they car had a turbo boost
Tesla's are fast as all GET-OUT and the power goes from the battery to the wheels without all of the spark, and combustion reaction. They take off so fast it's like you're on a carnival ride . It throws your equlalibriym off and all that...
At least THEY are safe? What a stupid remark. They should be in jail. For reckless conduct and felony property damage. It's by the grace of God that an innocent person(s) wasn't walking their dog along the road at that moment.

I feel like I’m missing out on a lot of information, because everyone keeps saying it’s just a rental. I remember when I rented a car that was literally 1/4 price of a this Tesla, they wanted all sorts of documentation and for me to sign a bunch of agreements incase I intentionally break the car so they can hold me liable for the damage.

If this is illegal yet police do nothing about it, what’s the point of having police exactly?
Back in the 60's there was some talk about putting a round-D-round there to prevent these acts but they never did it. that inter change with Lemoyne St has always been a problem
they could reconfigure that road so that it’s not a through street

Speed bumps up one side and down the other and a circle turn around at the top of the hill will solve everything.
YES! It works. The city of Sacramento did that in my neighborhood and it stopped speeders. Lots of kids around.

@@jm100368 Please explain? what is so hysterical about trying to help the neighborhood.
In the olden days, all the kids in the neighborhood would watch as they would jump trying to achieve airborne on Baxter. Of course the high the jump the louder the applause. That tesla on the video would have gotten a 10-minute recognition by clapping and yelling from the neighborhood. That stunt is safer now than in the past, now a day Baxter is one way and only going downhill. Maybe someday in the future, I hope 2 cars attempt to fly over Alvarado from the opposite sides at the same time.
Seems they should've made it 1 way going uphill...
To curb things.
antonio.....I see we had similar youths! My dad used to take me down a road called "Thrill Hill" and get airborne in his 1972 Chevy truck. No seatbelt or child seats back then either. Somehow, I survived.

"...only property damage..." is actually an incredible metaphor for so many of the public policy failures currently happening today, and it's only getting worse. Voters and the politicians they send to office just don't respect private property, or are envious enough of it to try to claw it away via legislation, regulation, and/or the courts.

Don't complain about the added danger. Echo Park is known for a drive-by shootings. The added risk is at a very minimum.
Okay so for some more context from all this: the Tesla driver actually didn't own the Tesla he jumped, it was actually a rental car. After the jump apperantly the driver fled the scene. The LAPD (according to some sources) have been somewhat trying to find the guy and charge him with Hit and Run.
Regarding Alex Choi. He originally hosted a Tesla car meetup at a store to see what Tesla owners do to their cars. It was a simple meet and drive on the interstate. After the Tesla meet one of the tesla drivers mentioned to Alex to come to Echo Park because this hill is where another RUclipsr had his Tesla jump two years prior. When Alex arrived there was already a group of people there and the driver was already down the hill with the car already turned around. That's when the guy jumped the car and crashed it. Alex then went down to check if the occupants (I believe driver, two or three passengers, and a stray cat they picked up) were okay. They said they were then people started leaving. Alex then returned to access the damage the guy had done then went home. In his video and description he says that he himself does not support the actions people like the Tesla driver do and hopes those involved do face justice.
Regarding the guy who's Subaru got hit: he apparently (according to him, could not find other sources to support this) posted a video about what happened and was apperantly Copyright striked by Alex for using his footage (again haven't seen evidence supporting this and Alex has not responded to this). The guy then posted a video about the current state of his car (front suspension damaged) and that he has set up a GoFundMe for repair costs for his SUV.
This is what I have been able to find by searching. I'm not gonna say this is 100% accurate, just what I have been able to find and put together.
It's not only inaccurate it's very obvious lies to me. Like they arrived at the scene just at the moment when the video starts. Seems unlikely that the one who got there last makes the viral video of it. He was clearly enabler, organizer and instigator all in one person.
That car was sailing!
@Garbage Guy agreed. This isn’t cool
