The often surprising Elon Musk was stunned himself Thursday when two windows cracked during a demonstration of his futuristic, all-electric Cybertruck which had been pitched as bulletproof and practically indestructible.

Longtime Tesla lead designer Franz von Holzhausen, following Musks orders, threw a small metal ball at the pickups driver-side window and cracked it quite spectacularly after the vehicles unveiling in the Los Angeles area.

What do we know about Elon Musk's wild-looking vehicle so far? It can reach 60mph in 2.9 seconds, its 231.7 inches long, tows 7,500 pounds and that shatterproof glass might not be as sturdy as promised #Cybertruck pic.twitter.com/TvynvYBH9U

Oh my fucking God, Musk erupted as the audience gasped. Maybe that was a little too hard.

So von Holzhausen tried again, this time more softly lobbing a metal ball at a rear passenger window and cracked it as well. Theres a little room for improvement, Musk quipped.

The stainless-steel angular vehicle inspired by the film Blade Runner doesnt look like anything else, Musk boasted before the mishap. He explained in a tweet Friday that the window stunt had gone well in rehearsals.

We threw same steel ball at same window several times right before event & didnt even scratch the glass!

Some on Twitter suspected that the shattered glass may have been a very successful publicity stunt. In any case, analyst Gene Munster of Loup Ventures told Bloomberg: Its classic Tesla. Its poetic. I applaud the company for taking risks: This was not a boring presentation .

Musks tastes have so far struck a chord with consumers. But his popular cars have also suffered glitches, including with the companys touted autopilot system and links to accidents.

The Cybertruck will retail starting at $39,900. The reception on Twitter was a bit mixed. But scores of customers have already put down $100 deposits for the truck, which wont be manufactured until late 2021 at the earliest, according to Bloomberg.

Democratic presidential candidate Andrew Yang tweeted Friday that the world needed a Cybertruck without knowing it.
