He forgot to mention that the Cybertruck software assumes you want the frunk closed if you continually keep pressing the code button, and so it will continually increase the pressure. In the whole video, he did it on a carrot, then his arm, then on his hand, then on his finger. Each time the pressure was more because the Cybertruck thought the person wanted it closed.
