Okay, I missed this the first time through, but went back and looked. Sure enough, around 6:36 there's a caption that reads "Drove over sharp curb at 50km/h and resulted in cracked rim when I picked the car up."
But ... this really strikes me as yet more editorializing. If you look at the "sharp curb," rather than taking the text at face value, it looks like a perfectly normal driveway entrance, and 50km/h (30mph) might be a little fast but not outrageous. Actually, if you look closer, the speed reduces to 40km/h (24mph) before it hits the "curb." There's a small jolt, but without the caption I wouldn't even notice it in the video. I have a hard time believing that's enough to crack a wheel rim. But who knows? Maybe you're right.
