BILLIONAIRE CHASEA few days ago, a video went viral that, at first glance, seemed completely real: a Formula 3 car speeding through the streets of Abu Dhabi, chased by the city’s Lamborghini and Ferrari police cars. And honestly, given the level of luxury in the Emirates—where spotting a Bugatti is easier than seeing a regular sedan—it didn’t seem that far-fetched.
Because, let’s be real, in a place where millionaires can afford whatever they want and the police drive supercars, why wouldn’t some rich lunatic take his F3 for a spin around the city? It made sense. And the first part of the video seemed to support that theory: the single-seater weaving through traffic, blasting down the avenues, and the police in hot pursuit with their exotic machines.
But then came the second part of the video, and things started to look suspicious. The footage clearly showed how the Lamborghini squad blocked off the F3 in a side street with perfect coordination—too perfect. A flawless ambush, no hesitation, no missteps. Way too polished to be spontaneous.
And of course, after a bit of digging, the truth came out: it was all part of the filming for "Now You See Me 3," the next installment of the magician-heist movie series, currently shooting in Abu Dhabi. So no, there wasn’t a billionaire joyriding an F3, nor was there a real high-speed chase. But for a moment, with that first video, we all believed it. And rightfully so.

Fidgeting refers to nervous or repetitive hand movements—like playing with a pen, spinning a ring, or touching your hair—that help channel energy while focusing on a cognitive task.
THEIR CUSTOMS, AND WE MUST RESPECT THEMA video has sparked controversy in Pakistan, showing the assistant commissioner of Sadiqabad leading a crackdown on illegal parking. The footage captures him and his team puncturing the tires of motorcycles and cars parked in violation of traffic rules. The online backlash was swift, with many calling the action excessive and unfair, particularly for low-income motorists.
But before we get outraged, we should ask ourselves: is it really that different from what happens in the West? Here, they don’t slash your tires, but they fine you—and if you’re unlucky, they tow your car away, leaving you stranded and forcing you to pay to get it back. In many cases, the total cost of that ordeal can be even higher than fixing a punctured tire.
