Here’s the original photo before the low-quality noise reduction and oversaturation, in case anyone else is interested.
First of all thanks for the picture, it looks so good! Much better!
Secondly, aren't the flames and smoke in slightly different positions? Perhaps there exist multiple pictures, or a video, from this angle?
Edit: The video is contained in this Supercut from the Guardian: https://youtu.be/pq9_zvpamUk?t=15
Good eye. Turns out they’re both frames from a video.
Thanks, when I saw the news I knew I wanted a good shot of it. Should become a great meme.
🙏
As someone else in another thread called it..
Trumpster Fire 🔥
Perfect! Those things look just like a dumpster too.
As funny as it may seem, at this point the evidence suggests it was actually another act of terrorism, likely related to the tragic New Orleans attack.
I’m definitely stealing that.
Recent events starting the new year are not good nor funny though, it was almost certainly (investigation ongoing though) related to the New Orleans attack.
Apparently the Cybertruck that exploded had fireworks and fuel tanks inside, and the truck itself was rented from the same Turo app. They highly suspect it was another act of terrorism, no fault of the Cybertruck itself.

As much as I thought this would end up being a meme, if it does, it's not a good one. As Billy Joel said, "We didn't start the fire", well let's not try to spread the fire either.
If anything, share the link I posted from Adam Mockler, keep up with the news, watch out for yourself, friends, family and neighbors, and let's all please try to have a good new year.
Edit: Added Adam Mockler's link to his reporting on the New Orleans tragedy.
This has to be a new record for Picture of the year.
Looks right out of robocop
Everybody knows the Cybertruck can't go down stairs.
This picture represents everything i expect out of 2025...
Really going all out in this final season.
Oh, comme c'est magnifique! C'est la vie 💁🏻♂️
J'en pleure
I thought this was a screenshot from RoboCop
Straight from Blade Runner

Next episode's cliffhanger is when we find out Musk used the remote-controlled, explosives-laden Cybertruck to try to get at Trump, but the plot failed.
Yoooo it's the guy that stole my profile pic 2 years ago damn time flies how has it been?
Looks like a political statement.
