Maybe it's just all the Prince nostalgia speaking, but ever since watching the classic 1989 version of Batman, I've wondered how long you'd really be safe inside of a car during a terrorist chemical weapon attack.

Thankyou Tesla for delivering a car that the 1989 version of me would have been pretty keen on acquiring!




Speaking of that scene. I've always been skeptical that a jet could drag big balloons away like that. Seems like a lot of weight/drag to load on on the front tip of the plane.


Also, I suspect that a stylized batwing shape may not, in fact, be optimally aerodynamic.


Bats fly pretty good !


This is exactly what I thought of! One of the most memorable scenes of my childhood.
