I Faked A Driverless Uber

Video summary

Press to jump

0:20Grandparents get into a supposed Uber; the driver steps out and the Tesla leaves without him.
4:05A staged gas-station collision with a stuntman leads to a fake police confrontation.
5:43At a fake antique store, the empty Tesla parks in a handicap spot under a real guard's eye.
7:44Security calls a tow truck, and the car has its own ideas about leaving.
8:35A sponsored segment for the Whatnot app interrupts the prank.
12:03The car tours McDonald's and Taco Bell drive-thrus with robot-voiced orders; the reveal comes after 16:04.

Airrack usually does the hiding himself: inside a recliner, among rice sacks, after hours in other people's stores. In "I Faked A Driverless Uber" he hands the job to a stunt driver named Kurt, folded into a costume that makes a Tesla's driver's seat look empty. The setup, in his words: "I built a car with a completely invisible driver to fool the world into thinking driverless cars are taking over."

Nothing here is a self-driving car going wrong. Every scare is staged, and the video has drawn about 1.5 million views in its first ten hours.

The first riders are grandparents who climb into what they take for an Uber. The driver, played by an actor named Del, steps out, and the car pulls away on its own while Zach Justice, as the car's voice, offers comfort that does the opposite: "We have only had 13 deaths so far in our launch." One passenger wants out of the car. The other announces, "I hate Teslas." A stuntman with gas cans is "hit" at a gas station, and fake police arrive before the reveal.

Next comes a fake antique shop with a real security guard, who watches the empty Tesla take a handicap spot and points out, reasonably, "Nobody's even in there." Then a tow truck arrives. The last stretch sends the car through McDonald's and Taco Bell, ordering strange things in robot voices, with a young actress playing a passenger princess armed with a money gun.

It is also an ad-heavy upload: a sponsored segment for the Whatnot app, and a plug for Airrack's own pizza snack. The man whose channel bio reads "Pizza Enthusiast" settles up with the security guard in pizza, too.

In the comments, the sharpest question is practical: shouldn't the passengers have seen the hidden driver's hands on the wheel? Airrack, for his part, closes with a dare of his own. At 250,000 likes, he says, he will run the prank back on Elon Musk himself.

So is nobody talking about how the driver still has to have hands on the wheel and they can obviously see that in the back seat

You gotta hire a private investigator to find you, but you go undercover as his assistant to help investigate yourself.
