A couple of days ago, we showed you a video of two heavy-duty tractors destroying a new Skoda Superb and asked if any of you, our readers, had information on what was going on in this clip. It didn’t take long for one of you to solve the mystery.

Carscoop reader Michał Jakóbik emailed us a link to Czech website Autocz that not only explains everything but also includes three more videos of the tractors putting down a Fabia estate, a Yeti crossover and an Octavia Scout.

As it turns out, the four brand new models were sacrificed by Skoda for a local competition among several fire departments from the Czech Republic where fire fighters recreated an accident scene and tried to save people (we assume they used test dummies) trapped inside in under 20 minutes.

If you haven’t done so already, you can watch the videos after the break.

Hat tip to Michał!
