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?
