In an astonishing twist, a Ferrari California Roadster, famous for its luxurious design and impressive speed, found itself stranded in the sands of Revdanda beach in Raigad. What followed was a surprising rescue, involving not another luxury vehicle but a local bullock cart.
On a typical morning outing, two Mumbai tourists decided to drive their Ferrari California to Revdanda Beach. As they ventured onto the sand, the vehicle soon became stuck, despite their best efforts to free it. Onlookers gathered, attempting to help by pushing the car, but it remained firmly lodged.
Just as the situation seemed hopeless, a local bullock cart driver appeared. A regular on the beach, the driver was no stranger to the sands. When the Ferrari’s owners, desperate for help, approached him, he agreed to assist. A rope was tied to the car and fastened to the bullock cart. With the strength of the bulls pulling the cart, the luxury vehicle was effortlessly freed from the sand, leaving bystanders in awe.
The rescue video quickly went viral on social media, showing the stark contrast between the power of a bullock cart and a high-end Ferrari. It’s not every day that the luxury of a Ferrari meets the rustic strength of a local cart, and the incident has been shared widely for its humour and irony.
This amusing incident highlights a growing trend on beaches from Alibaug to Malvan, where tourists often drive their vehicles onto the sands in excitement. The rising popularity of beach activities like ATV safaris, camel and horse rides, and water sports, often tempts travellers to drive their cars straight onto the beaches. Unfortunately, many fail to realise the dangers of driving on sand and frequently end up getting stuck or even caught in the tides.
While the situation at Revdanda Beach ended in a humorous and lighthearted rescue, it serves as a reminder to beachgoers to be mindful of the terrain.
