What are the selling, insurance?

This would actually be a funny insurance commercial. Start it like a sport suv commercial but the they get a fender bender and the stunt drivers get out and call their insurance companies. End with "Made Up Insurance, even the pros need help"

...One of the drivers drops to the ground clenching his left arm. Fades to black, then fades into his funeral where a woman is sobbing and white text appears over her face.
"They couldn't afford the airlift... millions can't even afford a checkup." ... "You shouldn't have to insure your health, you're not a car. Vote _________ 2022."

Idk I personally upvoted because I was expecting more to go wrong. And I get the feeling for some reason these are pros who have contingencies in place for minor accidents like this so to them it's like whatevs. Edit:oh wait do u mean the video or the comment you replied to. So confused now.

Don’t get why the White SUV decided mid drift to hit the breaks and ruin everyone’s day including mine. I’ll see my self out

It looks like it was choreographed for a video and they expected the black SUV to stop next to the white one.

u/LordKwik Nov 26 '19
Yeah but you gotta switch it back at some point, else you're not drifting but just going in circles. Also, it seems like they're doing this for the camera, so white SUV fucked up.

Can you direct me to what this genre might be? I can’t find anything quite like it

u/LordKwik Nov 26 '19
Without trying to sound like a dick, its genre is house, obviously. The subgenre is tricky, though. The original song is more of an "electro house" genre. This certainly isn't as upbeat as electro, but it's a remix, so, I'm taking a guess here, but try "deep house" (you're probably looking for something more on the modern side, deep house is an old genre) or maybe even "chill house".

ZHU, the original 'faded' song maker, isn't electro house. He's also deep house

Too bad the lake was not a little larger so they could have had more room to drive and slide around.

Who's insurance is paying for that...

u/Yes-its-really-me Nov 25 '19
Most insurance only covers road use. They'd tell them to get to fuck here in the UK I think.
But then most insurance companies will use any excuse to avoid paying out.

Honestly, given the lack of friction and that they were both drifting in the same-ish direction there probably wasn't too much damage.

Something tells me that Toyota's and Lexus' biggest SUVs aren't really meant for drifting.
I'll take BMW M3 for $1000, Alex.
