Alef Aeronautics has released footage that allegedly depicts their electric car "jumping" over another car on a road in California. As reported by journalist Collin Rugg on X, the company is claiming that this is the "first test in history of a car drive and vertical takeoff in a city."
"This drive and flight test represents an important proof of technology in a real-world city environment," said Alef Aeronautics CEO Jim Dukhovny. "We hope it will be a moment similar to the Wright Brothers' Kitty Hawk video, proving to humanity that new transportation is possible."
Given the choppy movement of the car, however, fans have since begun reacting hilariously to the video, with some even jokingly rubbishing it off as nothing but CGI. We've rounded up all of the funniest reactions to the clip online to hopefully leave you in stitches as well.
