#OTD in 1977, THE SPY WHO LOVED ME was released in the United States. Underwater scenes of James Bond's Lotus Esprit submarine were filmed using a custom-built wet sub piloted by a former U.S. Navy SEAL. After filming was complete, the sub was placed in a storage unit where it eventually was forgotten. It was rediscovered when the contents of the unit were bought for $100 at an auction. The sub is now owned by Elon Musk. | U.S. Naval Institute

There is no way this is possible, but a car actually drove underwater! In 1977, Lotus built a real submarine car for James Bond that wasn't just a movie prop. Engineers converted a Lotus Esprit into a functioning underwater vehicle with fins and sealed systems. It moved slowly, but it worked! The craziest part? Elon Musk bought the original at auction and promised to upgrade it with Tesla tech. Sometimes fiction really does become reality! | Auto Viral
