Widebody McLaren 720S Virtually Joins the Milk Crate Challenge Like a Boss

The latest idiotic idea to make the rounds across social media is the so-called milk crate challenge. To complete it, social media bozos need to conquer a (usually) precarious pyramid of empty milk crates. One can imagine the results...

Let us just say that it is not safe to go back to TikTok. One might get mesmerized by these crazy attempts at Internet stardom performed with total disregard for oneself. It is like the 21st-century social media completely disregards the simple instinct of self-preservation in favor of some fleeting likes and comments...

Anyways, the gist of it boils down to a person trying to traverse an up-and-down staircase entirely made from stacked, empty milk crates. Of course, most results are hilarious to watch... but also traditionally painful for the human performing the attempt. Jackass style at the tip of the smartphone.

Seriously, do not try this at home or anywhere else! Now, just in case you really cannot help but join the craze, let us present an alternative. A virtual one, although it clearly bodes well for the social media aficionados. Sure, we did not invent it, as the honor befalls pixel master Jon Sibal, aka jonsibal on social media, who clearly had the brains of not making a fool out of himself for all Internet eternity...

Instead, he just used a car for the attempt. Naturally, a vehicle won’t be able to climb any staircase, let alone one made of milk crates. So, he just constructed a sort of bridge and tucked a cool McLaren 720S on top of it. Just to make it a tad more appealing than it already is, the British supercar also got treated to a widebody kit.

Unfortunately, there are no technical details attached to it, so we can just assume that it has stock credentials. They are nothing to sneeze at, of course, since we are dealing with the mighty 4.0-liter twin-turbocharged V8 engine that is capable of churning out no less than 710 hp (720 ps) and send the 720S on its merry way to 62 mph (100 kph) in less than three seconds!
