There is no denying that non-fungible tokens (NFT) are in the spotlight right now. There’s also no denying that the exploding supercar is eye-catching. This one certainly caught our eye, and it’s like we’ve never seen a smashed supercar before. So for better or for worse, watch this 2015 Lamborghini Huracan exit stage through the dramatic slow-motion footage featured above.
Of course, the slow-mo clips are only part of the story. A conceptual artist known only as SHL0MS (by the way, that’s a zero in place of the letter O) decided to fill the 2015 Huracan with enough explosives to effectively turn it into tiny pieces. We don’t know the type or amount of explosives used, however, it was explained to us in an email that the engineering and explosives team contacted everyone to make sure the Lambo cut was “aesthetically pleasing.”
That’s great, because the whole point of this whole project is to shoot 999 videos of specially selected pieces. Each video shows a rotating view of the snippet, and yes, each video then becomes an NFT with its own unique code. All NFT will be sold by auction started on February 25, with the aim of proving that the pieces are worth more than the whole car. With a good 2015 Huracan currently selling for around $230,000, each NFT would need to make around $230.
Surprisingly, the press release suggests this entire exercise may (or may not) be related to Lamborghini allegedly pursuing the NFT artist. Lamborghini recently embarked on its own wacky NFT adventure, so yes, it appears to be. Whether or not people are interested in the video clip of the charred Lamborghini cut remains to be seen.
Of course we who are in the automotive world already know the spare parts always worth more than a car. Of course, we are talking about actual parts like pistons, bearings, suspension arms and so on. Maybe it could be the next big NFT score… auto parts photos. Man, maybe we should jump on that idea.
