A dramatic scene unfolded at Mount Tianmen in China, where a Chinese car manufacturer attempted to replicate the iconic Range Rover climb on the “Stairway to Heaven”. What was meant to be a triumph turned into disaster.
Midway through the grueling 999-step ascent, the vehicle lost control and slammed into a safety barrier, leaving onlookers stunned.
In a somber statement, Chery Automobile admitted its failure: “This result highlighted our insufficient assessment of potential risks and the shortcomings in detailed control during the planning and execution of this test.”
A harsh reminder: on the Stairway to Heaven, even the smallest mistake can be unforgiving.
