It's ridiculous to call anything for likes, clicks, clout, etc. You really cannot make this up, so take note of this. Popular YouTuber Alex Choi, who specializes in videos with automotive themes, was arrested on federal charges on June 5 for this. He Allegedly planned a pyrotechnics display that involved shooting fireworks at a Lamborghini from a helicopter. Consider that. He fired off fireworks. from an aircraft and collided with a Lambo. What the heck?

This is the point of seriousness. Choi was accused of "causing the placement of an explosive or incendiary device on an aircraft" by the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Central District of California. A 10-year prison term is possible for this offense. Fed time. For influence.



Speaking of the aforementioned video, the post "Destroying a Lamborghini with Fireworks," was taken down on July 4, 2023. I'm sorry, but we are unable to continue his story. According to rumors, Choi was seen pushing a "fire missiles" button as two female helicopter pilots shot fireworks at a Lamborghini driving quickly.

The location of this reckless act was the El Mirage Dry Lakebed in San Bernardino County, California. This is where the video was allegedly shot, and where Alex Choi was seen holding a firework next to the helicopter. He was reportedly in charge of organizing and directing the shoot, further adding to the seriousness of the allegations. 

Choi continued his self-snitching behavior by thanking a camera company for "being a part of my crazy stupid ideas" and using expletives to express his regret for forgetting to give a friend instructions on how to use a torch during the shoot.


Choi was brought before the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California after the federal intervention. He was freed on a $50,000 bond—not bad, really—and his arraignment was scheduled for July 2.

It's important to note that Alex Choi did not have the required permits for the shoot, and he purchased the fireworks in Nevada because they were prohibited in California. These actions, if proven, not only demonstrate a disregard for the law but also raise serious concerns about public safety. The charges are only accusations, according to federal authorities, and Choi is presumed innocent unless and until he is proven guilty. Choi's Underscore Talent representatives have chosen to remain silent on the matter.

Certainly, anything for influence.
