LEGO built a drivable Bugatti Chiron out of a million pieces of Technic

That thing is incredible. Apparently, in addition to the real wheels and tires, there are a few pieces of structural steel in it. But the body is entirely Lego, and not glued.

Never realised there was such a documented trail for Oll Korrect. Always sounded like a wacky theory to me.
I wondered if it caught on because it was similar to och aye and the way the preceding "Oh" can be used in English to communicate enthusiasm or guarded acceptance of the following word - "oh alright" vs "oh yes" for e.g.
