Ferrari Owner Gets Special Treatment: Security Guards Skip Check At 5 Star Hotel In Bengaluru [Video]
The rich people have powers which normal citizens do not have. For example, any normal citizen goes to a five-star hotel in a standard car like a Toyota, Maruti Suzuki, or any other which is commonly seen on the road. The security guards do a thorough check of it before letting the vehicle inside. However, a video was shared online which showed how, after seeing a Rs 4 crore Ferrari, not one but three security guards saluted the owner and even skipped checking his vehicle.
Security guards salute Ferrari owner
This video showing the Ferrari 458 passing the security check-in at a five-star hotel has been shared on Instagram by Varunnn_04 on their page. In this short clip, we can note that a Ferrari 458 Italia, finished in the classy shade of Bianco Avus (Pearl White), was entering The Oberoi hotel on MG Road in Bengaluru, Karnataka. There were two people sitting inside the supercar.
Now, generally, when a standard vehicle enters such a five-star hotel, the guards first stop the vehicle and check it for explosives and other lethal weapons. However, in this particular case, the first security guard was seen saluting the owner of this Ferrari 458 Italia. Soon after this, we can note that there were two more security guards on duty.
However, these guards also did not stop the driver. One of the two guards even had an inverted mirror on a stick to check the underbody of the vehicle for explosives. But in this case, he immediately moved away from the vehicle and saluted the owner, after which the owner drove ahead. We can note that there was another supercar at the main entrance of the hotel.
Power gets respect
The above video is one of the biggest examples of power getting the ultimate respect in India. There is a tendency which a lot of Indians have, and that is to bow down in front of powerful people. In this case as well, the security guards did not perform their duty of thoroughly checking the vehicle. We understand that any person who owns a Rs 4 crore Ferrari will not be carrying explosives.
However, it is the principle that matters, and when the rules are levied on normal citizens, they should also be applied to VIPs as well. What can also be noted is that this particular Ferrari was equipped with black film on the windows. This is also something for which any other vehicle owner can get in trouble, but most rich owners get away.
Ferrari 458 Italia
As mentioned, the supercar seen in the video is a Ferrari 458 Italia. When it was new, it was priced at Rs 4 crore on-road. It is easily one of the most popular Ferrari models of all time, and it was known for its bone-chilling naturally aspirated V8 motor’s noise.
This fire-breathing Ferrari 458 Italia came powered by a 4.5-litre V8 engine that produces a maximum power of 562 bhp and 540 Nm of torque. It can accelerate from zero to 100 km/h in just 3.4 seconds, and it has a top speed of 340 km/h. What makes the 458 Italia even more special is that it is the last naturally aspirated Ferrari V8-engined supercar.
