Who is Victor Micula? Outrage as rich kid washes Lamborghini's wheels with expensive champagne in TikTok video
You may have been familiar with the rich kids of Instagram but here's a story about a spoiled rich kid who was seen washing the wheels of his Lamborghini with champagne on TikTok. A video has sparked outrage across social media after 25-year-old Victor Micula was filmed opening two bottles of champagne in order to see which one would be better to clean the rims on the wheels of his luxury car.
Micula is the son of a business tycoon worth around $210 million (£160million). His father Viorel Micula has businesses in the food industry, real estate, media, as well as tourism. Seemingly an experiment, Micula had told his followers that he had been wondering about using a bottle of Moët & Chandon as well as one of Cristal champagne. A bottle of Cristal champagne can cost around £200 ($263) in the UK while a bottle of Moët & Chandon costs around £50 ($65.90). In the clip, he is seen popping the cork on the Moët & Chandon bottle before pouring it all over the wheels of his Lamborghini Urus SUV. He then takes a face mask from his pocket and wipes the wheel of the vehicle. In the video, he can be heard saying, "I was curious, which of the two champagnes washes the Lamborghini's wheels better. Let's see which one washes better." The man dismissed the protective wear as a mere cleaning cloth saying: "Also, the face mask should not be forgotten as it is useful for something."
There is more to his rich and lavish lifestyle. As per reports, Micula would arrive at his school in a helicopter just so that he could sleep in extra in the morning. He is originally from Romania but resides in Switzerland and has been for the last six months, Bihoreanul reports. It is said that he splits his time between clubbing and sessions at a fitness center in Zurich as he is trying to lose weight. Romanian media frequently reports about Micula's sickening antics including one time when he was banned from a school exam after he had been caught cheating.
Reports suggest that he had also once driven a Ferrari down a pedestrian street in order to go shopping at a jewelry store with his at the time girlfriend. In the year 2016, he once bought a six-seat private jet said to be worth more than £6 million ($79,08,300) using his father's money.
It's not just Micula, there are more such rich kids on TikTok who have been flaunting their luxury lifestyles on the app. While Instagram allows you short videos and photos, Tiktok allows you more room for expression. An example would be TikTok star Chantel Jeffries who stated that she was taking part in the "my best friend's rich" trend and gave her 1.3m followers a tour around her mate's extremely modern mansion. The showcase included an Aston Martin and Ferrari, obviously. Then she showed followers his grand piano in the middle of a marble foyer before moving on to the games room - complete with a pool table and vintage arcade games.
