Tesla offers manual door releases for situations with depleted power, but Janel opted to wait, fearing potential damage to her car. "Inside my car, it's 103 degrees, so I'm slightly freaking out. I hope I don't run out of air," "I can't open up the doors or the windows otherwise I could potentially damage my car, so I'm just stuck in here roasting like a frickin chicken dripping sweat,"

I hope that I don't die of suffocation and heat, but I can't afford my car breaking if I OPEN THE DOOR in the middle of an update.

What she did was stupid, but its really easy for people to push themselves thinking they are fine until they suddenly aren't. I'm sure she was thinking she could just open the door when it got too bad.

So instead of opening the door when it got too hot, she made a 40min Tik Tok that has been watched by more than 30mil viewers, documenting her fear for suffocating or having a heat stroke

GenZ is ruining heat stroke

Seriously. Reminds me of radio recordings of aspyxiated pilots. If it gets too bad, then it's already over. Pilots who unknowingly run out of oxygen just sit there zoned out not realizing that is happening and they are trained professionals!
