This is a very good test, and the car should have past. That said though, I hate the click bait format where they show a stupidly obvious cartoonish wall, when the real wall is way more convincing.
The Video:

That sort of clickbait is 100% sure to get a "do not recommend channel" from me, I'm so sick of it. And it's sad when the video has such a good point.
The Clickbait

I can see it's kind of funny, but it's misleading.

I agree with everything you said.
Thanks. 😎
Then imagine why 15% downvote? I suppose it means they don't see how it's misleading?
YouTube is always click bait nowadays. There are plenty of that aren't and have good quality. But everyone I encounter that's trying to breakout is sensational for the sake of being sensational.
