A YouTuber spent $25,000 at auction on a shipping container not knowing what was inside, but thankfully he got 'really very lucky' when he uncovered what lay within.
There's a lot of things you could do with $25,000 - save it, go on 25 really amazing holidays or put a deposit down on a house.
Or you could just say f**k it and decide to splash it on a 'mystery' shipping container from a cargo auction like one content creator, the YouTuber suspecting some sort of car lay inside.
The question is, was what was inside worth the hefty spend?

Taking to his YouTube channel in August last year, Slav from the channel SLAV's ADVENTURES revealed he purchased a shipping container for $25,000 with no knowledge of the type of car which was lying in wait inside.
"Imagine there is a Lamborghini, a Lamborghini inside of that container," Slav tells his friend. "It's possible."
However, just because it was a possibility, doesn't make it true - Slav's friend noting there were certainly some 'risks' to the plan - but with no further ado, Slav decided to crack open the container.
The pair unbolted the container and opened its doors to be met with a pile of crates with something much more exciting lying behind - a car.
Thrilled by the spot of what looks like a car concealed by a cover, the pair quickly moved the other tat out the way to get to the vehicle.
And now for the big unveiling.
"It looks like it's whole. It's not broken or anything," Slav's friend said, the cover still very much on, just feeling out the car and seeing the 'integrity' from the car's silhouette.
"Unfortunately it's not a Lamborghini," Slav noted.
However, that's not to say it wasn't an exciting find - the car revealed as being lime in color, with some epic lights and a Ford Mustang.
"Oh my gosh," Slav said. "[...] That's so crazy."
Slav resolved they were 'really lucky' with the find in the container and it's not taken long for social media users to weigh in.
One YouTube user wrote: "Bro your really very lucky pls don't sell this legend."
"PLEASE DO NOT SELL THE MUSTANG GT IT'S MY FAVORITE CAR," another added.
A third commented: "My dream car."
A fourth noted: "Gotta love a good Ford mustang I would keep it too that's probably a $60,000 dollar car and you got it for only $25,000."
