A recent simulation has illustrated the potential outcome if a chemical bomb were to hit the heavily armored limo known as the “beast” that transports Donald Trump. Trump, one of the most protected figures globally, faced threats during a rally last July, highlighting the ongoing risks faced by the Republican.
Despite surviving with minor injuries, the incident became a significant event in the 2024 Presidential Election. Previous assassination attempts on sitting presidents like Abraham Lincoln and John F. Kennedy underscore the need for heightened security measures.
Measures have been implemented to safeguard the president and the “beast” limo, a fortified vehicle used for his transportation when not flying on Air Force One or Marine One. Weighing 20,000lbs and costing $1.5 million to build, the limo boasts advanced security features such as night vision technology, tear gas dispensers, and electrified door handles.
Additionally, the limo is equipped with three-inch thick bulletproof windows, eight-inch thick armor, a secure communication system for launching nuclear codes, and even a refrigerator stocked with the president’s blood type. In case of a chemical or biological attack, the vehicle can seal off and provide oxygen to the occupants.
A recent simulation video on YouTube demonstrated the response protocol if the limo were to face a chemical bomb attack. The vehicle would go into lockdown mode, sealing off vents and activating the oxygen reserve for the president’s safety. The driver would swiftly navigate away from the danger zone.
Viewers were amazed by the limo’s capabilities, with one commenter describing it as more of a tank than a car. The simulation highlighted the meticulous planning and technology aimed at ensuring the safety of the president during potential security threats.
