One of Brazil’s richest and most powerful men, Chiquinho Scarpa stunned the world when he announced that he was burying his million-dollar Bentley so that he could lead his later life in style.

It attracted a lot of media attention, mostly negative and was strongly criticized for its extravagant gesture and the destruction of a valuable vehicle.

Why won’t you donate the car?

How far is this gentleman from reality?!

Moments before he landed his Bentley car ready to bury… it was then that he made a statement that he would not bury his car and then revealed his true motive for the drama: for organ donation to creating awareness.

“People condemn me because I wanted to bury a million dollar Bentley, in fact most people bury something more valuable than my car,” Scarpa said during a speech at the ceremony.

“They bury hearts, livers, lungs, eyes, kidneys. This is bullshit. So many people are waiting for transplants and burying them with their healthy organs that could save so many lives!!”
