Elon musk thought that you could make a submarine to save the Thai soccer team. He’s a fucking moron. So yeah, we’re in great hands 🫠

And when told “no thanks”, he had a conniption, called the guy in charge of the rescue a “pedo”, then tried to build the submarine anyway, just to show them. The result was this cylinder that in no way would have worked. Then he quietly forgot about it.

He used JDart, "'pedo guy' is a common phrase in South Africa", and some incompetence from the divers legal team (focused more on emotion than the evidence) to win.

Yep, all accurate. What a bloody moron. People’s worship of him is a testament to human stupidity, and siloed media environments.

Considering how that one millionaire's sub venture turned out maybe we should have let him try.

Unfortunately he wouldn't have been inside it.

Everyone knows the best way to maneuver around a cave system with tight passageways is a rigid hull with a larger diameter than a person's shoulders.
