Elon Musk when he was 17

Ever imagined how Elon Musk looked like when he was 17? Well, you can now see for yourself. A photograph of the tech billionaire, from when he was 17, has gone viral on Twitter. Musk is an extremely popular figure on the micro-blogging site. His meme game is right at the top and his market advice can easily make or break stocks. Even though the cryptocurrency mania keeps him in the news most of the time, the reason, this time, is a little different. A Twitter account, Weird History, has shared a picture of the Tesla CEO, which people are finding very fascinating. In the pic, he is seen wearing a white T-shirt and blue jeans, folded up to knees. Musk is wearing a cap over a hat and has a hammer in his right hand. The caption read, “Elon Musk, at 17 years old, visiting his cousin’s farm in Canada wearing “a hat on a hat”. Genius!”

Although wearing a hat on a hat might not be the most reliable sign of genius, it does show that the tech CEO also has a sense of humour and helps to make sense of his frequent jokes and usage of memes on social media. If you were ever wondering if this has just been the attempt of a CEO to seem more human and relatable — well, it looks like Musk has just always been a little weird.
