A Toyota Land Cruiser Prado was spotted wading through some serious deep flooding and making it look like it was nothing at all.
This is a vehicle known for being an off-road beast, but this footage shows exactly how capable it is.
The Prado rolls through the mucky water as if it’s cruising down a sunlit highway, making light work of the difficult conditions.
Most cars would give up and start smouldering under the pressure, but not this one.

We’re not sure exactly where or when this video was taken, but it was shared on Facebook by someone called Juan Benitez Sanchez.
There’s a chance that it was filmed during the recent flooding in Spain, which has been absolutely devastating to some regions, but we’re not sure and don’t want to jump to conclusions.
One conclusion we can draw is that this Toyota was quite literally made for conditions like these.
Toyota Land Cruiser Prado making light work of the weather
There are a number of great options for off-roading these days, with even electric vehicles entering the fray.
But, we couldn’t tell you how the Cybertruck or a Rivian would stand up to this kind of punishment.
As you can see from the aerial shots, the Toyota Land Cruiser Prado is pushing on through the brown floodwater like a powerboat, creating a powerful bow wave as it goes.
This looks like an ordinary stock model, too – so no fancy modifications to turn it into a submarine, or any James Bond trickery.
It’s just a great car, built for the most rugged terrain and the most inclement weather.
At points the water even comes up over the hood, which – as any sensible car driver will tell you – is bad news.
But, even that doesn’t stop the Prado ploughing on through driving – or should that be sailing? – on to who knows where.
Don’t try this at home – or anywhere
Whilst we know admittedly little about this intrepid explorer and their Toyota Land Cruiser, you have to admit it’s a pretty cool video, right?
Just don’t try this at home – or anywhere, for that matter.
Most cars simply can’t put up with that level of water.
