From volcano lairs to flame throwers, these are 5 of our favourite Elon Musk moments

Tesla CEO and Dogecoin fanatic Elon Musk isn’t shy about posting his true feelings on social media.

In fact, his Twitter feed makes up the majority of Tesla’s marketing.

Does Elon know something we don’t?

Back in 2018, Elon Musk took the world by surprise when he created a legal flamethrower through his newest venture The Boring Company.

This was one of the maddest creations this super-genius had ever come up with and following its launch, he said this:
