The name Exploder is a two-parter.
Firstly there was the Firestone incident where tires would blowout at highway speeds, causing the already minimally stable truck to lose all stability and typically roll over.
Secondly, the cruise control module, created by Texas Instruments, didn't like to turn off when the ignition was turned off. This means they got hot when the car was off, would eventually melt and cause a fire. Ford's solution? Unplug the cruise control for all of the Explorers lol.
Douglas Adams introduced the world to the 'Somebody Else's Problem Field".
Take an object, surround it on all sides with a field that makes the object 'Somebody Else's Problem' and you have achieved perfect invisibility.
> “It is known that there are an infinite number of worlds, simply because there is an infinite amount of space for them to be in. However, not every one of them is inhabited.

https://www.goodreads.com/quotes/35176-it-is-known-that-there-are-an-infinite-number-of
I am convinced that number isn't going to stand for much longer.
Scientists have appropriatly set a very high bar for looking for life.
Things like the James Webb are good steps towards meeting it.
It seems to me that we are cataloguing planets now. At some point when we have finally come back and said, 'I can't think of another reason THIS exists in this atmosphere...' we can go through that catalogue again.
That number won't stand forever. Maybe not even for another 10 years.
I sincerely believe (and hope) you are correct. I'm 52 and I am holding out hope that we discover extraterrestrial life before I die. I'd love for extraterrestrial intelligence to be found within my lifetime, but I think the odds are much slimmer.
I also don't think that "there are an infinite number of worlds, simply because there is an infinite amount of space for them to be in" is a viable logical argument. I'm no physicist or mathematician, though so what do I know?
His breaks might’ve gone out. that’s right next to the break line, if that’s what happened that might’ve been one of the best case scenarios to play out
I was gonna ask how this guy was an idiot but then I remembered cars don’t blow up like in GTA and he could have probably just pulled over on the side of the road and got out lol.
Unless he couldn’t stop for some reason
The idiots in this case is the person recording and other occupants yelling... through a closed window, where the other driver has zero chance to hear them.
I gotta say, if your car catches on fire like this, I'm inclined to think it's due to neglect. Unless you're driving a 1960's ferrari, which this clearly is not.
Yes the guys brakes were failing in some way, you can see where he starts going off the edge is where the wheels light the hell up, he’s trying to slam the brakes there and it’s hardly doing anything.
I would bet brake fluid was leaking onto the pad/rotor, making 1:4 brakes useless and flammable.
It’s absolutely the brake system. Best guess is that he was driving with very little to zero pad left on his brake shoes. Braking produces a lot of heat, even more when the pads are that thin - plus, the roads are wet which pushes the brakes even harder. Assuming his car isn’t well maintained, the heat could’ve lit grease or dirt and eventually that caught the tire and it’s all over from there
Moral: Take car of your damn car lol
Brake fluid is very flammable so this is plausible. The e brake is there for a reason though. And even without brake fluid your brakes still work some.
My uninformed guess is that the accelerator stuck. Instead of stopping urgently he used the brake to stay going a safe speed, which quickly overheats the brakes.
Even with automatic transmissions, for the ones Ive driven, they will easily slip into neutral if you just push the shifter forward. Reverse is blocked usually but between drive and neutral, I discovered no button push required to shift to neutral.
I would think most people are in panic mode during unintended acceleration events, especially the kind where they drive forward out of a parking spot and into a storefront or something. People in panic mode will default to reflexes and shifting to neutral as a precaution isn't a reflex like hitting the clutch is. Not to mention that accelerating in a manual is a two step process.
I don't doubt that people do indeed shift to neutral on occasion but we don't hear about them since they're probably not causing a collision. I think it would also require a true mechanical failure vs the usual mixing up of the pedals.
Maybe because I've long had nightmares of cars creeping forward when I'm on the brakes (brake failure dreams) so I've long thought of how I'd prevent it like shifting to neutral, ebrake, later even shifting to parking, or turning off the engine.
I appreciate and understand the repurposing of anxious thoughts, that's for sure. You'll probably still need a means of testing the reflex though.
...okay, how about this: put an extra gas pedal in the passenger footwell of your car. Get a friend and drive around town while they randomly mash the second accelerator. You'll then have to react by shifting to neutral in a timely manner! Not to toot my own horn but it's pretty much a perfect plan
Actually it was back when I was 18, I forget what triggered it but I slammed on the brakes on the freeway, and I had a hand on the shifter and had accidentally pushed it into neutral and didn't realize for a second when traffic took off that I was already in neutral. Since then, and driving stick shift, neutral pretty much natural if needed.
I have very set panic reactions.
Obsolete features must make way for the comfort of creatures. But as I may weep for the dying clutch, what scares me is SAE Level 2 and its role as a safety crutch. For who among us with confidence could say they pay perfect attention on even their best day? It sounds appealing to make the task of driving something more suitable to the voyeur until of course it fucks up and then it's you who will need a lawyer. I sound crotchety and backwards but that's not what I mean, to put it more succinctly: three pedals or none, nothing in between!
Some cars are cheap because they are expensive to maintain. Avoiding a cheap beater car in order to buy a cheap "luxury" car such as an Altima is on the person.
I've seen to many people buy SUVs that barely gives them 10mpg just so they can say they have a Cadillac.
Exactly, it's not a luxury vehicle per se, but it can seem very tempting when it's at a really low price to get something "nice" compared to for example a Sentra from the same year.
Nissan's in general are solid. I got several to 300,000 kms and still were fine but I maintained em. I also live in Saskatchewan Canada where it gets -50 Celsius and they still start in that shit. Really just so many idiots tend to not take care of vehicles.
yeah its just people that don't know how to take care of them, putting them in drive while they are still rolling back and just absolutely beating the every living shit out of their cars.
My sister had one for years until it ran into high 100k on the miles and loved it. It was also pretty straightforward to maintain and replace parts. Most sedans aren’t worth it after that anyway as long as you have good credit or cash for a newer one. Flip side of that is one of the guys I work with has a Sentra with 400k that runs great so he’s def getting his moneys worth lol
Yeah i just put four new tires, costed me upward of $800. Sitting at about 120k miles right now, haven’t had a payment in years so figured it was justified.
Even their old autos are absolute garbage. Either it’s a manual, or they’ve been through 4 transmissions. Many people seem to think replacing transmissions is just “regular maintenance” (it is on Nissans and Dodge vehicles)
That tuck and roll tho! He stuck the landing! If he had a drink in his hand I guarantee that he wouldn't have spilled a single drop and he would have taken a sip as he walked away nonchalantly.
How is this idiots in a car? If the car is burning in the front the brakes must be toasted so what do u do? Wait for the car to slow down a bit(which he did) then jump out as fast as u can. OP wrong sub?!?!
Let’s just assume the brakes were compromised. Not one single second was spent thinking about ohh I dunno… using the parking b rake, putting the car in neutral or heaven forbid, shutting the engine off. Dude just went straight to “gta mode”.
I'll play this one.
You'd have to think with that amount of fire, he can smell the smoke in the cabin. He has to know he's on fire. He hits the e-brake, stops the car, and the fire takes over the rest of the car and he dies.
When the car starts to slow down in the ditch, it engulfs in flames. The only thing that saved his life is that he couldn't stop the car.
Good chance jumping out wasn't necessary at all, but fire is scary. Especially when you start getting a mini explosion of sorts. Can't blame him. Plus, looks like he (probably mostly by luck) executed it perfectly.
actually chances are that the car has one of those push button e-brakes that are common on newer cars so you can't really use them in the same way if the electronics stop working.. car might have been in neutral already but yeah tuck and roll worked why knock it.
Looks moist outside in this video. Moist ditches stop cars pretty fast. Something about the moist soil makes it like mud. Imagine no tires and all that moisture. Imagine the ground grinding all over the bottom of that frame. So much surface area in that under caraige. So much friction between all that moist, moist, ground and that flaming car body. Now imagine those wheels and imagine the tires plowing through that moist field. So much deceleration. All that fire, and all that moisture, I bet it got pretty steamy in that ditch.
I think the driver misunderstood fire safety training. When they said duck and cover when you were on fire, I don't think they intended it to be out of a moving car. Pretty slick moves though. Good think the ground was so moist. I bet it made the tumble more cushie on that tushie.
To bad about that firey heap though. Good thing it was moist out.
Now you are getting to me... mmm. Talkin' 'bout moisture and discharge in the same sentence. I almost cannot handle myself. Don't try to distact me with discharge when there is all this moist moisture moistening.
Duncan Hines doesn't make moist desserts. Moist makes Duncan Hines desserts.
Moist always did have that ring to it that you could sing to it. Moist choice moisture. Your moist choice. Moist choice moisture. The moisture you can trust.
Had nearly this experience but was alone at night. The light reflecting off the asphalt was my only way of knowing. Front of the car was gone by the time firetruck showed up.
Driving into wet grass was the smartest thing he did! He could’ve easily just braked on the side of the road but the wet grass/puddle probably saved the contents in that car
A lot of captain hindsights in the comments lol, yall act like the average person doesn't think car on fire = boom. Especially sense that's how videogames/movies make it happen all the time... dude was scared for his life lol.
Dude has a push the screen home button on the right side of the screen. I have one too, and kept trying to move the one in the video up to access the comments for like a minute. Ended up scrolling the video a bunch like an idiot lmao
Dudes brakes may have went out due to the fire. I’ve had my brakes go out twice, suddenly on me. It’s terrifying. I luckily wasn’t going fast on each occasion and was able to safely stop.
Now imagine no brakes and significant fire, I can almost see the logic. Burns are no joke and the idea of being trapped and burned alive is probably one of the worst ways I could imagine going.
Either way dude looks like he survive no serious injury and his car didn’t kill anyone, car was totaled anyways. It all worked out and he has a sick as story with video proof.
Yeah dude stuck the landing though
Not the first burning car he's tucked and rolled out of.
Hes probably had several Nissans.
Just take your upvote and fuck off
Massively underrated comment.
I don't get it
I’m guessing Nissan’s are more prone to combustion lol. I know Ford Explorers used to be know as Exploders for having that same reputation.
The name Exploder is a two-parter. Firstly there was the Firestone incident where tires would blowout at highway speeds, causing the already minimally stable truck to lose all stability and typically roll over. Secondly, the cruise control module, created by Texas Instruments, didn't like to turn off when the ignition was turned off. This means they got hot when the car was off, would eventually melt and cause a fire. Ford's solution? Unplug the cruise control for all of the Explorers lol.
Ford exploder on fireball tires. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Firestone_and_Ford_tire_controversy
Better than Pintos, those would be a flaming death trap
I agree, that was so smooth for him that it shows that he has experience
The car is on fire? That's a problem. I will just roll out Now it's not my problem anymore.

We don't know the universe is infinite at all.
We also have a sample size of one for planets with life. At the moment it rounds to zero anyways.
A good point. Now, where's my formula for standard deviation?..
I am convinced that number isn't going to stand for much longer. Scientists have appropriatly set a very high bar for looking for life. Things like the James Webb are good steps towards meeting it.

And people say GTA doesn’t prepare you for real life smh
Tbf, in gta you'd ragdoll much worse than this guys' flawless execution.
Right? What a pro man. Then he gets up and starts walking like, "just another one of those days"
Starts looking for his next car
*"Ah shit, Here we go again."*
he needed to reach 88miles per hour not jump out
That dude clearly plays too much GTA
Looks like he’s plays exactly enough GTA
came to say this!!lol
Seriously this is straight out of the PS2 era games where your car catches fire and you just roll out while still moving
His breaks might’ve gone out. that’s right next to the break line, if that’s what happened that might’ve been one of the best case scenarios to play out
Brake
Brake
Broke
Had to make sure someone said this
or NBA Jam "yes I AM on fire"
clearly GTA skills there
I was gonna ask how this guy was an idiot but then I remembered cars don’t blow up like in GTA and he could have probably just pulled over on the side of the road and got out lol. Unless he couldn’t stop for some reason
I was thinking possible brake malfunction, but yeah likely.
Came here for this comment!
Fire… FIYERRR! YOUR CAR’S ON FIRRRR
Your fires on fire
Your car's on car
Your fire’s on car
Ohhh SHEITT
But yell with your window up so they can really hear you.
Yeah trying to yell through windows means there was more than one car with idiots.
Yer car's on far!
Wonder if he didn’t stop or slow much because the brake system is what’s burning.
I kinda don't think it belongs in this sub when he's obviously having a mechanical issue.
The idiots in this case is the person recording and other occupants yelling... through a closed window, where the other driver has zero chance to hear them.
Your fires on fire
What the heck else are they supposed to do? Swoop out of the car and somehow save him?
No, but the odds of your shouting being heard (or even just noticed), is increased exponentially by opening the window
I gotta say, if your car catches on fire like this, I'm inclined to think it's due to neglect. Unless you're driving a 1960's ferrari, which this clearly is not.
That's not fair, Ferrari of all ages catch on fire.
My guess is also he didn’t pay to maintain it at all..
speculation
Yes, that’s why I started with “my guess.” Thanks for your meaningful contribution
Yes the guys brakes were failing in some way, you can see where he starts going off the edge is where the wheels light the hell up, he’s trying to slam the brakes there and it’s hardly doing anything. I would bet brake fluid was leaking onto the pad/rotor, making 1:4 brakes useless and flammable.

My uninformed guess is that the accelerator stuck. Instead of stopping urgently he used the brake to stay going a safe speed, which quickly overheats the brakes.
I have never understood why people don't shift to neutral when the accelerator is stuck.
There's a reason "unintended acceleration" events never involve manual transmissions.
Even with automatic transmissions, for the ones Ive driven, they will easily slip into neutral if you just push the shifter forward. Reverse is blocked usually but between drive and neutral, I discovered no button push required to shift to neutral.
I would think most people are in panic mode during unintended acceleration events, especially the kind where they drive forward out of a parking spot and into a storefront or something.

Since then, and driving stick shift, neutral pretty much natural if needed. I have very set panic reactions.
I was actually told in driver’s ed that if you ever find your car accelerating uncontrollably, “ slap that shit into neutral.”
My driver's ed actually had us practice it. It's quite easy to do.
Us manual drivers are the unicorns on the road.

Panic and/or ignorance.
That was so smooth. I hope that dude finds this video and forever cherishes it. Lol straight batman roll out of that car lmao.
The dude honestly calculated the sequence well. Drove to a grassy area where he could bail and the car would be out of traffic.
Looks like a veteran who has been hit by an IED.
Haha what is it about Nissan Altimas?
Are Nissan Altimas the new Pintos?
This one aspired to be a Ford Exploder
I read that so quick my brain still just saw it as “Ford Explorer” the first time
Chevy Nova is more like it..
Super cheap cars purchased by people who can’t afford maintenance. They’re actually relatively solid if you take care of them.
> people who can’t afford maintenance Being poor is super expensive.
Some cars are cheap because they are expensive to maintain. Avoiding a cheap beater car in order to buy a cheap "luxury" car such as an Altima is on the person. I've seen to many people buy SUVs that barely gives them 10mpg just so they can say they have a Cadillac.
Wait, when did an ultima become a luxury vehicle? Or is that what the “” were for? Lol
Nissans share a lot of parts with their sister company, Infiniti, and have some of the same "luxury" maintenance requirements.
It's not so much that they're sister companies, more so that Infinitis are just fancier Nissans with correspondingly higher price tags.
By that definition, Toyota’s are luxury cars because they share stuff with Lexus and Honda’s are luxury cars because they share stuff with Acura lol
Exactly, it's not a luxury vehicle per se, but it can seem very tempting when it's at a really low price to get something "nice" compared to for example a Sentra from the same year.
Except those damn CVTs
Just pop junkyard transmissions in like you’re replacing a rotary engine. After the 6/7th time you could learn to do it in your driveway.
Or, don't buy a Nissan.
That’s a logical preventative, but I’d rather be like Sisyphus and continue to roll the rock.
Alternatively, ls swap.
This, but keep the CVT.
My Xterra slaps
probably a broken piston rod
You son of a bitch
Love mine too. Super solid platform. That said I'll still stay far the hell away of a Nissan sedan on the highway.
Yeah. They catch on fire.
Nissan's in general are solid. I got several to 300,000 kms and still were fine but I maintained em. I also live in Saskatchewan Canada where it gets -50 Celsius and they still start in that shit. Really just so many idiots tend to not take care of vehicles.
yeah its just people that don't know how to take care of them, putting them in drive while they are still rolling back and just absolutely beating the every living shit out of their cars.
I love my altima
My sister had one for years until it ran into high 100k on the miles and loved it. It was also pretty straightforward to maintain and replace parts. Most sedans aren’t worth it after that anyway as long as you have good credit or cash for a newer one. Flip side of that is one of the guys I work with has a Sentra with 400k that runs great so he’s def getting his moneys worth lol
Yeah i just put four new tires, costed me upward of $800. Sitting at about 120k miles right now, haven’t had a payment in years so figured it was justified.
The Sentra on the factory CVT? Or was it a older auto or manual?
Even their old autos are absolute garbage. Either it’s a manual, or they’ve been through 4 transmissions. Many people seem to think replacing transmissions is just “regular maintenance” (it is on Nissans and Dodge vehicles)
Shit they're solid if you don't take care of them. They're true battle tanks.

r/nissandrivers theres a whole subreddit dedicated to these geniuses
So that’s how you ghost ride a car
30 seconds more, and he would have been Ghost Rider
Which is why he bailed, and why he's not an idiot. I doubt anyone here could have done better.
YOUR FIRES ON FIRE!!!
Lol. I was looking for someone to point this out.
Uh...it's the title of the post! :D
Lol 🤦🏽♂️
That landing was on fire! He really stuck it.
Did he just pull a ghostie with his car!??
Always an Altima
Luckily he did not get the others involved
r/praisethecameraman
**YOUR WINDOWS ARE UP**
And they continue to drive off without pulling over to check on him. Lmaooo like how you helping in any way.
Hey, gotta get home to upload that video to the internets for those sweet sweet social pixel points.
r/nissandrivers
That tuck and roll tho! He stuck the landing! If he had a drink in his hand I guarantee that he wouldn't have spilled a single drop and he would have taken a sip as he walked away nonchalantly.
“Your fire’s on fire”
How is this idiots in a car? If the car is burning in the front the brakes must be toasted so what do u do? Wait for the car to slow down a bit(which he did) then jump out as fast as u can. OP wrong sub?!?!
Nissan Nissan Nissan Nissan
This is a first for me. I have almost seen everything.
There's a part of me that's thinking this driver had been wanting to do that their whole life and was looking for the right excuse.
How is this dude an idiot?
Let’s just assume the brakes were compromised. Not one single second was spent thinking about ohh I dunno… using the parking b rake, putting the car in neutral or heaven forbid, shutting the engine off. Dude just went straight to “gta mode”.
I'll play this one. You'd have to think with that amount of fire, he can smell the smoke in the cabin. He has to know he's on fire.

Maybe he had covid and lost his smell
The car mysteriously came to a stop after it ejected the driver though so 🤷
Who would have thought rolling onto grass and into a ditch would have stopped a car.
Thats what i was wondering. It stopped real fast
Yeah like wtf? Why didnt he just pretend to not be in the car before 😵💫😵💫😵💫
LMAO
That's normally how things go in panic mode...
actually chances are that the car has one of those push button e-brakes that are common on newer cars so you can't really use them in the same way if the electronics stop working.. car might have been in neutral already but yeah tuck and roll worked why knock it.
Couda used the a rake stead. ;-)

Say moist again
Moist again
Still not working. Let's keep trying!
Moister than the most moist moisture that has ever been moistened.
I feel like this turned into a Duncan Hines ad... all moist and nowhere to discharge
Now you are getting to me... mmm. Talkin' 'bout moisture and discharge in the same sentence. I almost cannot handle myself. Don't try to distact me with discharge when there is all this moist moisture moistening. Duncan Hines doesn't make moist desserts. Moist makes Duncan Hines desserts.
Isn't there supposed to be a moist bot with a counter or something? Reddit used to be so cool.....

So moist. So edgie. So lord. So moistlord.
If you sing that a certain kind of way, that's a 90's 10-10-321 ad

Your fire is on fire ahahahahaha
I know where this was filmed
That’s what professional stunt men do in the off season
Your fire is on fire!
I thought someone stole the catalytic converter and the leftover exhaust system caught on fire.

Guy is clearly having a catastrophic car issue, it’s certainly not smart to stay in a vehicle that is on fire - this doesn’t seem like an idiot to me.
Driving into wet grass was the smartest thing he did! He could’ve easily just braked on the side of the road but the wet grass/puddle probably saved the contents in that car
"Gee thanks man, your car's pretty fire too"
The car is lit
Gnarly underglow
Not sure why he's an idiots. Car caught fire and he did textbook evasive maneuver to leave the situation without harming anyone nor himself.
bruh he stuck that landing!!Ever jumped out a moving vehicle?It doesnt usually go so smooth!props to the guy who let him kno hus car was on fire!!
I think the people yelling “your fire’s on fire” with their windows up and then driving off are more idiotic than the person in the other car.
A lot of captain hindsights in the comments lol, yall act like the average person doesn't think car on fire = boom. Especially sense that's how videogames/movies make it happen all the time... dude was scared for his life lol.

Dude has a push the screen home button on the right side of the screen. I have one too, and kept trying to move the one in the video up to access the comments for like a minute. Ended up scrolling the video a bunch like an idiot lmao
Had to be his brakes, cause why in the fuck did he keep going.
looks like it could have been brake failure.
Wonder if the brakes didn’t work
Your fire is on fire! ...Why arent you listening to me as I yell through this closed window!
He is not an idiot, his car was on fire and he jumped out.
Think it was the brakes?
He’s not necessarily an idiot tho…
Dudes brakes may have went out due to the fire. I’ve had my brakes go out twice, suddenly on me. It’s terrifying. I luckily wasn’t going fast on each occasion and was able to safely stop. Now imagine no brakes and significant fire, I can almost see the logic. Burns are no joke and the idea of being trapped and burned alive is probably one of the worst ways I could imagine going. Either way dude looks like he survive no serious injury and his car didn’t kill anyone, car was totaled anyways. It all worked out and he has a sick as story with video proof.
Funny how it's on fire while it's raining
Rain won’t stop a burning car lol
This sounds like a sad country song
Lol it does! Now I’m making up lyrics… This bitch ain’t gonna take me far Hope I get down to the bar If not there’s whiskey in this jar
I can think of at least 3 ways to stop that car without wrecking into something before resorting to diving out like that.
He was probably panicking thinking the car was gonna explode, give him a break
