Tesla Cybertruck's front trunk, better known as a frunk, was tested by an owner for its sensitivity to detecting objects in a now-viral video taken last week.

A southeastern man used fruits and vegetables to test out how well his Tesla Cybertruck's front trunk, better known as a "frunk," detected obstructions while closing before he decided to test out post-software update sensitivity with his limbs. "Right now, it's not very safe," Jeremy Judkins says as he starts his now-viral video. He shows a cucumber, carrot and banana all being sliced in half by the side of the frunk during closure.

He then shows how and why he decided to do the test, with the electric vehicle's screen detailing how a software update will make it so that the "frunk can better detect obstructions just before it finishes closing." ELON MUSK SAYS WARREN BUFFETT SHOULD BUY TESLA SHARES His experiment progresses to his arm, his hand and then his pointer finger. His arm and hand were detected without issue. When testing his finger, he looks nervous as the frunk begins to close down on it.
