The owner (?) didn't seem too upset. So I guess it wasn't too big of a deal.
I'm surprised the shop let him in there to film it without a representative closely following him.
Video shows him walking in, like, "well...there's my car. it fell off the lift. kinda sucks....so whatever...."

Looks like total BS to me. (But they did get a view count out of me.)

Looks staged. Car has significant damage on the driver's side and rear bumper, which appear to have not touched the ground in this scenario. Looks like they forklifted an already damaged car into the shop as a stunt. Also, what a stupid-ass sticker on the windshield. Ruined the car well before this happened.

Yep, that is what I think too. Fell off the back end and did some kind of turtle roll smacking the other side on the lift.
These kind of accidents are often quite dynamic. Do you ever drive by an accident scene and wonder how on earth the cars wound up the way they did?
Loook at some of the crash compilations ( I will never drive in Russia in the winter) on YouTube and you will see.

prob happened on purpose for his YT channel, likes, and monetization. Take a $10k car and make that and more on video views, etc
