According to owner Tuomas Katinen, the Model S in question was purchased in 2013. It seems that he ran without problems at first, but he said that an error code came out when the mileage exceeded 1500 km. As a result of leaving the car to a Tesla dealer for a month, he was told that 'the battery itself has to be replaced and the warranty has expired, so it will cost 20,000 euros.' However, he said, 'I don't want to pay nearly half of the purchase price of the car for battery replacement,' so he decided to ask Pommijätkät to blow up the car.
For safety, Model S is placed in a place surrounded by rock walls.
Dynamite, which is as thick as an arm, will be attached to Model S.
'Dynamite weighs about 30 kg, so we can expect the shock waves to be very large. We calculate that all the blasts hit the rock wall behind.'

The face of Tesla CEO Elon Musk was pasted.
And finally the preparation is complete. Katainen, who was handed the switch to the blast, commented, 'I feel very good now. I can't wait for the blast.'
The switch is pressed after the countdown ...
Finally, Model S exploded.
A big explosion goes up.
Katainen and Pommijätkät who succeeded in blasting and exchanged a hug of joy.
It's hard to understand if it's an image, but if you look at the image of a high-speed camera that captures the moment of the explosion, you can see the shock wave of the explosion running.
If you look at the footage from the air, you can clearly see that the Model S debris has blown to a tremendous height.

While commenting, 'I've never felt so happy with Model S!', Katainen was collecting the wreckage of Model S that had fallen apart.
