Liebherr R9800 Excavator Car Wash

This short video clip shows why it’s a bad idea to get your car washed with a Liebherr R9800 Excavator.

If you’re curious, the shovel has a capacity of 42 cubic meter (which when filled with water, is equivalent to 42 metric ton or oh, about 92,500 lb). Explains the end result, doesn’t it?

    Looks like that was the result they were hoping for.

    Wow, that's pretty crazy. Wasn't expecting it to crush the car.

    And I thought touchless washing was supposed to be better for a car's finish…

    That's a good way to keep people from asking you to wash their car.

    I would imagine that the damage would be less if the bucket was not as high.

    It would've been fine had they turned on the wipers.

    Rain-X would've kept it safe.

    @ JimRL - through my powers of deduction an witchcraft.

    I'm just saying it would not b as spectacular if the bucket were lower.
