This Israeli's Tesla saved him. Hamas tried to shoot the engine but when they saw it was electric they hopped in their trucks ... the Tesla outran them at 110mph ON FLAT TIRES all the way to the ER 🤯

This story out of the Israeli-Palestine conflict is absolutely bananas.

An Israeli man, only identified by the initial "C" found himself surrounded by Hamas on the day of the invasion on his way to report to the city's emergency squad.

The Hamas fighters started immediately firing upon the man in his Tesla Model 3, aiming at the back and the front of the car. However, since the Tesla is an electric vehicle with no front engine, they were unable to disable the car with the shots.

"They did not realize that it was an electric vehicle, so they shot at the front, hoping to hit the engine that was not there, and at the back, trying to set the fuel tank on fire that the car doesn't have. They shot my tires. I stepped on the gas and they started chasing me," C. said.

C. was chased by the jihadists and reached speeds of over 110 miles per hour. This is while the Tesla had a flat tire.

C. credited the Tesla's all-wheel drive mode for keeping him on the road. He was able to outrun the truck that was chasing him and made it to the hospital to receive treatment for the gunshot wounds he sustained.

This is some serious action-hero stuff here:

And, just to add a layer of reality to this unreal story, check out these pictures and this video of the aftermath for the Tesla.

[Warning: Blood]

I know it's a tragedy and it's in the middle of a war zone, but I can't think of a better ad for Tesla than this.

Just tell everyone this story ... then throw in the fact that the Tesla Cybertruck is going to be bullet-resistant.

I can see the ads now: "Tesla: It could save your life."

This isn't the first time the Tesla has proven itself: We reported earlier this year on a murder-suicide attempt that was thwarted by its engineering.

As for this one Israeli, I'm sure he's thankful for Elon Musk's invention!
