I'd say it's real and dropped for the photo. There's a few of them around. Pointless things IMO

I wonder if they would bolt a metal disposable object, purely for that photo. So it scrapes to make the sparks without causing any damage.

Its not actually scraping on anything important, they weld a piece of metal to point down so when they drop it, it creates sparks.

Why would you fake that? Just bolt something to the bottom and drive along? Of course metal will spark if you drag it along the road!

They do. You use a plate on the bottom to give off the sparks.
This is nothing new...

I seriously doubt they would just grind whatever is there, its usually a titanium block that makes the sparks.
