Updated In a video posted to his X account, Colle can be seen pointing a handgun at his Cybertruck in a field.
After the firing the first round, the bullet appears to pierce the Cybertruck's exoskeleton, which Tesla says is made of dent-resistant, ultra-hard 30x cold-rolled stainless steel.
Upon seeing the damage, Colle drops his gun and places his hands against his head in astonishment.
"I don't think it's bulletproof, Dante," another person can be heard saying in the video.
The video then cuts to Colle firing another shot, which appears to do a lesser amount of damage to the Cybertruck, leaving only a dent.
"What caliber did you use? Only rates up to 9mm," an X-user wrote on the post.
"Supposedly, itâs rated up to .45 but I used 9MM here. I have a mix of rounds in my container so I mightâve had a hot/hard round that hit the first time because it stopped the second one," Colle responded.
According to The New York Post, multiple personalities have tested Musk's claims of the Cybertruck being "literally bulletproof," with Tesla botching a demonstration of the claims in front of a live audience in Los Angeles back in 2019.
Per the publication, in a follow-up test in December, however, lead Tesla engineer Wes Morrill posted a video to the company's official YouTube channel showing his team firing various calibers of bullets, with none of them penetrating the Cybertruck's exoskeleton.
"1.8mm Thick Stainless Super Alloy," the video's description reads.
In a post to X back in March, Morrill wrote that the Cybertruck "has lived a tortured life for entertainment - Jumped on, kicked, burned, beaten, and shot (multiple times)."
âTo quote the black knight, itâs just a flesh wound, Iâm invincible! Now weâve confirmed is tough, maybe Cybertruck can roam freely on and off-road in peace?â Morrill wrote.
