It was filmed by the owners daughter, and the owner has given multiple press interviews about the incident.
So, if your argument is that someone must have been in the car, because the lights were on and the rear wheels were locked up, then both logical thinking and my engineering degree tell me you are denser than a neutron star.
I feel like your only chance would be a few short seconds with enough presence of mind to open the tailgate on the way down and then swim up and out once the pressure equalises enough to push it open.
My first thought was id take the headrest off and use it to break the window so I can swim up, but if I was in the situation I'd probably just sit there frozen
Side windows are incredibly hard to break. Best chance would be to break the rear glass. Don’t ask me how I know this, but bricks bounce off side windows like rubber balls but go through front and rear windows like butter
Well, it makes sense because a side window when closed is much smaller. But again, even if you broke it, you wouldn’t be able to get through because you’re in a tunnel effectively.
Spark plugs go straight through any windows apparently. Criminals were using them a few years back to smash car windows. Literally just throw them through. So maybe it’s worth having a couple of those in the car lol
You would not be the only one. There is a YouTube channel where a guy finds missing people by using sonar to search nearby lakes. He has found dozens in their cars, years later, them having gotten lost and driven into the water and unable to escape.
Independent.co.uk said the owner 67 yr old Dr. Doshi 'raised an alarm' and shot the video
Maybe that's why the brake lights are on?
To me, something sounds fishy about all of this report - why would it sound like a kids voice saying 'holy shit' (a Dr wouldn't say that, less than a 67 yr old), and if an alarm was made on the car, the lights would be flashing! I'm having a hard time believing some of the crap that's being reported from England that takes its news from 'India times'!
This clip does start with the front of the car already I'm the sinkhole, but the full video clip shoes otherwise and actually starts the video with no brake lights and before the car enters the sinkhole, the brake lights start flashing.
Iv forgotten where I parked my car before and had to do the walk around for a few mins trying to remember! This would be a mind fuck. Thinking well I didn’t park it in a big puddle and I’m sure it was here but it’s not here so where did I park it ?
I know I shouldn't laugh... but I am. I think im going to hell.
Yes, yes you are!
There's someone still in that car struggling to get out!!! Front wheel drive can't reverse out, brake lights on, I'm sure they're freaking out!
Did the person actually get out????
There was no one inside the car
https://www.independent.co.uk/asia/india/mumbai-rains-sinkhole-swallows-suv-b1865282.html
Mumbai police said that there was a well beneath the spot, which had been half covered by residents and turned into a parking space.
There's your problem. What is it with people and not properly dealing with wells?
that’s really fucked up if the car belonged to a person not in on the pave-over.
And the brake pedal was… ok.
I don't know the backstory, I would love to know too!
OP?
No one was in there. Wires shorted because of the water.
.... and the rear wheels were locked in position because of water too?
Handbrake exists?
Or it's an automatic
Handbrake doeant initiate any brake lights
Water shorting circuits does though
Neither does the wheels actively locking in position. That's a mechanical system, lights are electric.
Is there a second part of the video only the dense people are watching?

Well done for finding part 1 though.
Where did you get that the camera man and victim were related
Stop lying. The owner filmed it.
Dr Doshi said: “He raised an alarm, after which I rushed to the spot and saw that the car was sinking into the well. Then I shot a video.”
https://www.independent.co.uk/asia/india/mumbai-rains-sinkhole-swallows-suv-b1865282.html
I don't know, ARE you watching one?
Yes, ARE you watching two?
Yer and the handbrake was most likley on as it when 99.9999999% of people park
Tbf it looks like that's where the car is going too
Seems the car will be arriving before you!
No worries, im already here, its cozy nice and warm, but most important of all, its funny as hell just like the saying tells it is.
Holy shit. I honestly think I would have just shit myself and die if I was in that car.

Good call. I just don’t know if there’s space at the sides to get out
Side windows are incredibly hard to break. Best chance would be to break the rear glass. Don’t ask me how I know this, but bricks bounce off side windows like rubber balls but go through front and rear windows like butter

I think if shit myself too. That is something so absurd and awful I’d expect it in a nightmare.
And here I was thinking free car wash.
On a real - this is fucking horrifying. 😂
Omg that’s terrifying
Can't park there mate
😂
That person died
What does he write on the insurance?🤣
His obituary
Nomnomnomnomnomnom
I remember this that happened in Mumbai a few years ago.
Could u tell us more? Did the person get out?
Edit: After some you tube research...

The YouTube clip says no one was injured https://www.reddit.com/r/interestingasfuck/s/ymxuka8GFI
Thank fuck for that. That would be a horrible way to go.
If I remember correctly the car was parked. No one was inside.
Who was standing on the brake pedal then? Look at the high level brake light, it's only going to be on if braking, right?
Water short out the circuit to it.
The brakes were pressed before the car started falling into the sink hole
The clip starts with the front of the car under already where the fuse box is.
It bit hard to press the brake with no one in it.
This clip does start with the front of the car already I'm the sinkhole, but the full video clip shoes otherwise and actually starts the video with no brake lights and before the car enters the sinkhole, the brake lights start flashing.
Cool. I'll look out for it.
Full clip? Where did you find a full clip?
Much appreciated to resolve this for everyone!
There is none. The owner of the car is the one recorded it , after been told that his car going down an hole.
Maybe but why is the car even switched on. Shame the video didn't start earlier.
It does seem like there's a bit more to the story.
It an short. Only need the battery to be hock up. The water form the circuit.
Yeah, I don't dunk a lot of cars, looks spooky though.
The owner of the car took the video himself. There have been more cases like this in India.
Oh right.
6/7
Ok, we need to know more, there was brake lights and activity in the lights on that car. Was there someone in it? Did they get out?
That is a portal to the mariana trench.
Did my guy make it out or nah?
Have anybody seen the movie “Tremors”? This is exactly like that movie, wow. Fantastic movie by the way
Iv forgotten where I parked my car before and had to do the walk around for a few mins trying to remember! This would be a mind fuck. Thinking well I didn’t park it in a big puddle and I’m sure it was here but it’s not here so where did I park it ?
The swamp of sadness!
Artax, you're sinking!
I hope no one is in that car!!
Dude! Where's my car?!
Jokes on you. Guy just figured out the ultimate shortcut to beat the traffic.
did we just see someone die
Can't park there pal
And thats why two of the cars are wearing disguises, so the car monster won't gobble them up. I fear for the other undisguised car.
New underground car park
I also missed this memo. On the 1 in 1,000,000,000,000,000 chance that i were ever going to park there could somebody relay that to me please? 👀
Not all who wander are lost
Dude, where’s my car?
It’s one of those space saving car parks. Now there’s room for another on top
And just like that pouf it was gone.
Oi mate. You can't park there.
I hope there was nobody or a pet left in that car
It doesn’t look good: the light were on.
Where’s the fucking money Lebowski
Nowadays would say AI, but that's old, way before all the AI crap. In Ruzzia iirc.
To be fair, the ground wasn't wearing hi vis.
The driver never had a chance.
This is how I feel when I open my mouth at work..
Or how I feel when I f up
This is so unsettling.
Fuck this one guy in particular
r/fuckyouinparticular
Geologists on their way to work
This should be in r/FUCKYOUINPARTICULAR
Imagine telling your insurer.
“Where’s your car?”
“In there 👉”
I saw a hand come up to the boot window are they okay
Didn’t see it till you said this. Jesus
"And there it was, my new car, gone."
Can you imagine what was written on the insurance claim? ‘You’re not going to believe this but……’
That's the entrance to the underground car park.
Shit did the driver survive? I can imagine him not seeing the hole but did the driver get a chance to leave the car
Was I the only one waiting for the next car?
Repo guys are getting wilder nowadays.
It looked like the ground was hungry and wanted a quick snack.
Booting cars is so yesterday, sinking them for illegal parking is the way to go.
Since when could the earth just eat your car. That is HORRIFYING.
