A car was found mysteriously lodged in a tree, and no one really knows how it got there, but after some digging, we seem to have found a solution.
No, it’s not AI. A a real car was found perched in the treetops, looking like a gigantic exotic bird, leaving spectators with their jaws hanging open.
A rumor began online that this car in a tree was an accident that occurred in a city in India. But it looks like this was actually deliberate and happened in Sichuan Province in China.
Wherever it happened and whatever the reasons for leaving it perched there, one thing is for sure: you can’t park there, mate!

A car was found mysteriously lodged in a tree
Imagine you’re just having a normal day, and you’re walking to work when you see a vehicle somehow mysteriously lodged in a tree, and no one really knows how it got there.
However, we might have the answers about how the weirdest-looking bird in the world made it up so high in the treetops.
Many rumors circulated about the clip, with some declaring it AI, some calling it fake, and some saying it was a genuine accident, and that it was originally reported to have happened in a city in India.
You can’t park there, mate
After some research, it looks like the video is, in fact, genuine, with not a bit of AI in sight. But it didn’t happen as an accident or even in India.
In fact, the auto making its way into the treetops was actually a marketing stunt by a driving school in Sichuan Province in China.
While it’s not as exciting as someone managing to get it there by accident, it certainly was an eye-catching way of getting attention for the driving school.
Hopefully, the sedan wasn’t someone’s daily driver, because they’ll find it stuck in a tree.
