Tesla CEO Elon Musk has declared he is “an alien” after being asked about where he gets all his energy and ideas.
He made the remark in 2018 during an interview with Joe Rogan.
Recently on Twitter, he also replied “obv” to a fan who asked if he’s an alien.

We all know Elon Musk is someone way ahead of our time. He’s the man behind some of the world’s most ambitious projects and groundbreaking technological developments.

In case you’ve ever wondered if he’s human, he’s actually not. That’s according to Musk himself who has repeatedly said he’s an alien.

So… Alien Musk?

Musk initially made the remark in a 2018 interview as Joe Rogan asked him “When I see you doing all these things, I’m like ‘How does this motherf***er have all this time, and all this energy, and all these ideas, and then people just let him do these things?’”

“Because I’m an alien,” responded the Tesla CEO.

Rogan then blurted out:

“That’s what I’ve speculated. I’m on record, saying this in the past. I was like, ‘If there was one, maybe an intelligent being that we created, like some AI [artificial intelligence] creature, that’s superior to people, maybe it would just hang around with us for a while like you’ve been doing, then fix a bunch of s***’.”

The video has since been viewed over 42 million times on YouTube and netizens couldn’t help but keep commenting to this day.

“Elon is so humble, he is very down to Mars,” one joked. .

“’I’m an alien.’ A comment by Elon Musk we should all take very serious,” someone also commented.

“The way Elon speaks it’s like he’s from the future and is careful not to say something to disrupt the time space continuum,” another wrote.
