Yeah, my first thought as well was that "pulling up" would be pulling the steering wheel back, which wouldn't do anything. Certainly wouldn't swerve the car all the way off the road, you wouldn't want to jerk a plane left or right in that scenario either.

So... definitely made up. But still an amusing greentext.

Would have been a better joke if they had paddle shifters and accidentally yanked hard on both.

Motorcyclists: yanks back on the handlebars and pops a wheelie, "pulling up" the front wheel

It does if you also suddenly give it lots of throttle on a powerful enough motorcycle
