In the lovely little village of Jaala, Finland, there lives a man named Tuomas Katainen, and Tuomas is the owner of a 2013 Tesla Model S. At first, Tuomas enjoyed his Tesla, but then it started throwing all kinds of codes and spent a month in a dealer’s shop, where it was discovered that it needed an entire new battery pack. For 20,000 euros. Luckily, Tuomas had a backup plan in place: with dynamite.

Now, sure, 20,000 euros is an awful lot and changing out a Tesla battery pack is a huge pain in the ass, but it’s not quite like that amount of money would have necessarily totaled the car. , easy.

But would fixing the car be more satisfying than telling the Tesla dealership something like this:

Probably not. Some things are just worth more than mere money.

So, a plan came together: an old quarry was found, friends were enlisted, and about 66 pounds of dynamite was sourced, and from what I can tell, dynamite looks almost exactly like big salamis:

Look at that! You could hang a bunch of those from the ceiling of a deli and no one would realize the destructive potential contained there, lurking above the rye and mustard.

Oh, they also stuck a mannequin-like thing—or maybe just a stuffed snowsuit—in the car with an Elon Musk face on it, dropping it to the location via helicopter, confirming for me that I really have no idea who this guy is or what kind of resources he has to play with:

Anyway, that’s the general story: you piss off a Finn with a cripplingly-expensive repair, and shit’s gonna get blown up. So watch:

Holy crap, right?

I like that this video does pose the hard question we’re all likely thinking:

...and gives us the answer:

Well, there you go. The man got what he wanted!
