    I’m still not sure if it was an intentional car bomb or if he was transporting fireworks to use later that night and something about the car set them off.

      A fully enclosed in non-air conditioned truck bed with a black lid in Las Vegas heat perhaps?

      Is still probably intentional, otherwise it’s one of the more epic Darwin Awards.

      Edit: Autocorrect stole my un from air conditioned.

        The lid is stainless steel, not black

            It does in their promotional pictures now too. Colour me surprised. I shouldn’t be given how much it changed since the prototypes

            I wonder if it’s still strong enough to stand on

      He was shot in the head prior to the explosion going off. Seems unlikely that sequence of events was accidental.
