Nah, they wouldnt snap off all four wheels at once.
I think someone just loosened the lug nuts on all the wheels for one reason or another...

yyyoooooowwww that hurts! looks like the rear driver's side lugs were sheared off... maybe someone thought torquing them to 180 lb/ft would be awesome?

I think he got the wrong lugs for those aftermarket rims. When he tightened them down they feel tight, but they are secured. So bye bye rims! Lucky for him the rx7 disc sit high the the wheel well, so the car just sat on the bottom of its body and the discs were saved.

"Dude, you got some wicked curb rash."
"Actually, that's road rash!"
Seriously, who the hell is this videographer? He walks around and tapes the whole car and SKIPS OVER the wheels? WTF? He zooms in on them for 1 second and then continues to film extensive images of the paint job. Moron.
