Texas Drivers Swear by This Hack to Beat Brutal Car Heat

El Paso, Texas is literally nicknamed the Sun City because well, we have so much sunshine! And while I appreciate our sunny skies, I don't appreciate how hot my car gets suring the summer time! And If you've ever sat in your car in the middle of July and questioned all your life choices, this article is for you. 

I came across an article online that shared a story on how a math professor from the University of Cambridge dropped the most game-changing TikTok hack to cool down your car in seconds!

This Viral Math Professor's Car Hack Just Saved Your Summer

Here’s what you do:

1. Roll down your passenger side window.
2. Then open and close your driver’s side door four to five times like you're mad at it.

That’s it. You’re fanning out the hot air and pulling cooler air in. In one test, the temp dropped 20 DEGREES inside the car in literal seconds. No more burning your thighs on leather seats or feeling like a rotisserie chicken before the A/C kicks in. 

The internet's been whispering about this sorcery since at least 2016 when Thrillist ran an experiment proving it actually works. But now that a math professor has blessed it with academic energy, we’re officially obsessed and we officially believe it! 

I’ve already decided I’m doing this every single day until October because in El Paso, the heat doesn’t really end until then.
