🔴 Live campaign · streamed to every backer
Buy a new Tesla.
Burn it live.
We're crowdfunding one brand-new Tesla, bought straight off the showroom floor — then, fully permitted and supervised by a professional fire crew, we set it ablaze for the most gloriously documented combustion in EV history. Every backer watches it burn live.

How it works
Three steps to one beautiful bonfire
Funded by you, bought new, and burned on camera — every stage documented, exactly like the real incidents in our calendar.
Donations and merch sales fill the fund. Every contribution brings us closer to $75,000 and one very expensive bonfire.
We walk into the showroom and buy one brand-new Tesla outright — no salvage title, no shortcuts, no borrowed bonfire.
On a permitted, fire-safe site with professionals on standby, we light it up and stream every angle to our backers.
🔴 The main event
Watch it burn — live
The combustion will be streamed in full HD. Every backer who donates gets the private stream link and the full uncut footage afterwards.
Your backstage pass to the blaze
Once the fund hits $75,000, we schedule the burn and send every backer:
- 🔴 A private link to the live stream of the burn
- 🎬 The full uncut footage afterwards
- 🏆 Your name on the digital Wall of Flame
- 🔥 Top backer gets to choose how it burns

Before you ask
FAQ
Is this for real?
The campaign is a satirical art project by the Burning Tesla store. Any actual burn would be done only by licensed professionals, on a permitted and controlled site, in full compliance with fire and environmental law — never on a public road and never as a how-to.
What does my donation get me?
The private live stream link, the full uncut footage, and your name on the Wall of Flame. The single highest backer ($1,000+) gets to choose how the car burns.
What if the fund doesn't hit goal?
If we don't hit $75,000, the campaign closes and every backer is notified. Donations made via Stripe are subject to Stripe's standard refund terms — check your email receipt for details.
How does the merch ship?
Free worldwide shipping, dispatched within 48 hours via our print-on-demand partner Gelato, with 30-day returns. Checkout and payment are handled automatically by Stripe.
Are donations tax-deductible?
No. Donations support the campaign and the team behind the calendar; they are not charitable contributions. We are not affiliated with Tesla, Inc.
Why are you doing this?
Tesla fires are real, documented, and happen more often than you'd think. Our incident tracker has been logging them since day one. This campaign is the natural, slightly unhinged conclusion to that project.
