  • Tesla is selling a $55 Cybertruck decal inspired by Elon Musk's infamous window smashing incident.

  • "OMFG decal" references moment a Tesla engineer smashed the Cybertruck's windows with a steel ball.

  • Tesla recreated the stunt at the Cybertruck's launch — but with a baseball, not a ball bearing.

Tesla is selling a Cybertruck decal inspired by the windows that famously smashed during a demonstration at the futuristic pickup's unveiling.

The decal, which pokes fun at Elon Musk's botched attempt to show off the Cybertruck's unbreakable windows at its 2019 unveiling, is currently on sale for $55 on Tesla's online store, with the listing describing it as "celebrating the moment that made us all go OMFG."

It's a reference to the moment the futuristic pickup was first revealed, when Tesla engineer Franz von Holzhausen attempted to show off the toughness of the Cybertruck's "armor glass" windows by throwing a steel ball at them.

The demonstration backfired horribly, with the window cracking and the livestream audio picking up a stunned Musk muttering "Oh my f---ing god," in the background.

A second attempt went just as badly, with Musk joking that there was "room for improvement" after the Cybertruck's rear window also smashed.
