'This Goes Against All of My Irish Bloodline Superstitions:' Woman Parks Her Car in the Hot Sun. Then She Pops Open Her Umbrella
A clever car hack has the internet debating whether convenience trumps superstition. TikTok user Jada ( @jadajz ) posted a 26-second video demonstrating an umbrella-style sun shade that's got viewers both impressed by its effectiveness and fighting with their ingrained belief that opening umbrellas indoors brings bad luck. The Umbrella Solution In her viral TikTok video, which has racked up almost a quarter million views since it was published on Aug. 5, Jada films herself from the passenger seat of her car, showing viewers her ingenious solution to beating the heat. The video captures her unfolding what appears to be a regular umbrella, but is actually a specialized car sun shade designed to look and function like an umbrella. Stay informed with our newsletter every weekday back Sign up For more information, read our Privacy Policy and Terms of Use . 'No, because watch this,' she begins, as she unfolds the umbrella-style shade. 'So easy, so convenient, so compact. Look at that. Immediately a difference in the heat.' The demonstration shows her wedging the umbrella handle against the entertainment controls below the main dashboard screen, creating an instant sun barrier across the windshield. The Heat-Beating Results Jada is clearly impressed with the product's performance, explaining the immediate benefits she experiences. 'I mean, there is no heat radiating from the front right now,' she says. 'Y'all loved it so much. I had to order another one, and it's just as easy to take down.' From the 15-second mark, she demonstrates the takedown process, showing how compact and convenient the shade is to store. 'It's easy. It's compact. All you got to do is fold it up just like an umbrella, and you can set it on the side of your door and keep it.' Jada loves the hack so much that she has incorporated it into her vacation plans. 'I got another one for Mexico because let me tell you, anything to beat the heat is worth it,' she says. Trending Now 'I'm Being Watched:' Tampa Woman Parks Her Mustang Near a Gas Station. Then She Decides to Stay in the Car Indefinitely 20-Year-Old Woman Tries to Buy a Car That's Been on the Lot For 1 Year. Her Negotiation Skills Stop Salesman in His Tracks The Superstition Factor While Jada focuses on the practical benefits, her comment section reveals a fascinating cultural divide. Many viewers are torn between appreciating the device and worrying about the sinister implications of opening an umbrella inside—even inside a vehicle. User Meghan captured this conflict perfectly, writing, 'This goes against all of my Irish bloodline superstitions but I appreciate the convenience.' The umbrella superstition sparked numerous discussions, with user shmeg commenting, 'Idc what people say I'm not gonna open any kind of umbrella indoors, stay safe tho.' Another viewer, Ashberries, wondered, 'My first thought was does this count as opening umbrella inside lol' User sab shared a similar reaction, 'LMAO my immediate first thought 'I'm not opening an umbrella inside' girllll HAHA.' The Practical vs. Superstitious Debate Not everyone was concerned about the superstitious aspects. User RachelOwensss offered a logical perspective: 'Inside of a car doesn't not equate to 'indoors' lol it's indoors like in a house or building. This is GENIUS' Others focused purely on the practical benefits. User Ali noted: 'That's smart for people who take their lunch in their car,' while peejayy93 from Florida praised the innovation: 'It really does! And I'm one of those who get there super early, so I die a little here in Florida waiting. This is genius, honestly, the old style was so annoying.' Some viewers brought up alternative concerns, with user Marissa pointing out: 'So.. create a blind spot,' though the user doesn't seem to understand that the shade is meant for parked vehicles. The Product Innovation The umbrella-style sun shade addresses common complaints about traditional windshield covers. WhitleyJT expressed enthusiasm for the design, chiming in, 'IMMEDIATE PURCHASE. I'VE refused to buy the ones that recoil in your damn face and hate the bulky accordion ones that take up the whole passenger seat. This is GENIUS. Literally can not wait till it gets here.' Traditional accordion-style sun shades and the spring-loaded circular models have long frustrated many drivers due to their awkward storage requirements and deployment difficulties. The umbrella design, on the other hand, offers a familiar folding mechanism that most people already know how to use. Modern Solutions, Ancient Fears The debate in Jada's comments highlights how modern innovations can clash with long-held cultural beliefs. While some users like Tiffany E. commented, 'I'm too tired during the work day to care about superstitions,' others remain committed to avoiding potential bad luck. The umbrella superstition, which dates back centuries and varies across cultures, typically applies to opening umbrellas indoors in homes or buildings. Whether a car interior qualifies as 'indoors' in the superstitious sense remains a matter of personal interpretation. Jada's video demonstrates that sometimes the most effective solutions come in familiar forms. By designing a sun shade that operates like an umbrella, manufacturers have created a product that's both intuitive and efficient—even if it does challenge some people's boundaries.

Vittori Partners with Totum 3D and ShapeUp Studios for Titanium Additive Production
PALO ALTO, Calif., Aug. 17, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Vittori announced a production partnership with Totum 3D and ShapeUp Studios to design, prototype, and manufacture titanium 3D‑printed components for its three‑phase roadmap: hypercars first, followed by premium eVTOL and electric‑jet programs. The scope covers design‑for‑additive reviews, rapid prototyping, and pilot short‑run builds of 3D‑printed parts. The teams are testing a practical mix of materials—titanium for strength‑to‑weight, stainless and maraging steels for heavy loads, aluminum alloys for light structures, nickel superalloys for hot zones, copper alloy for cooling hardware, and aerospace polymers like PEEK and ULTEM for cabin‑safe components (examples include 316L and 17‑4PH stainless, AlSi10Mg and Scalmalloy aluminum, Inconel 718, and CuCrZr). For larger sections, they pair printed parts with carbon‑fiber panels and honeycomb cores, and any cabin‑facing materials will be qualified to meet aviation flame, smoke, and toxicity standards. 'As others explore aerospace concepts, we're putting titanium parts into production now,' said Carlos Cruz, founder of Vittori. 'Proving hardware on the road first lowers risk and speeds our move to the air. The same printed structures and thermal systems will migrate into our eVTOL and, later, our electric jet.""Vittori's road‑to‑air plan is a strong fit for metal additive,' said Stefano Turconi, Head of Totum 3D. 'Common, lightweight architectures reduce part count and lead time while meeting demanding performance targets.' Industry context: public reports note leaders like Christian von Koenigsegg examining aviation concepts. Vittori's approach focuses on production today with third‑party manufacturing and a clear transfer path from road to air. Vittori's AI-hybrid hypercar, the Vittori Turbio—featuring a V12 targeting about 1,100 horsepower and 3D-printed titanium components—is scheduled for unveiling on October 4 in collaboration with Pininfarina. Further design details will be shared at the live event. This announcement comes as Vittori advances its current fundraising round to accelerate prototype production and support its three-phase roadmap from road to air. About Vittori Vittori engineers and builds hyper‑performance machines for land and sky—hypercars now, eVTOL next, and an electric private jet to follow. About Totum 3D Totum 3D provides high-performance material additive design, prototyping, and short-run production for performance-critical applications, delivering streamlined workflows that connect concept, engineering, and manufacturing into a cohesive process. About ShapeUp Studios Shapeup Studios provides Design solution development with shape research, seeking a balance between aerodynamics, lightweight, and tactile finishes in an innovative product development project.
