Fans of billionaire Elon Musk appear to suppose he’s the neatest individual on the earth. But Musk made a touch upon Twitter over the weekend that may very well be his dumbest but. Admittedly, there’s numerous competitors once you bear in mind that is the man who predicted in March of 2020 that the pandemic can be over by April 2020.

Musk was having a dialogue on Sunday about how he hoped “in coming years” to construct a Hyperloop, a system of transportation he first pitched in 2013. When somebody speculated that Hyperloop is perhaps useful throughout hurricane evacuations in New Orleans, Musk assured Twitter customers any excessive climate above floor wouldn’t have any impression on the tunnels beneath.

“Underground tunnels are immune to surface weather conditions (subways are a good example), so it wouldn’t matter to Hyperloop if a hurricane was raging on the surface. You wouldn’t even notice,” Musk tweeted.

The downside, in fact, is that underground tunnels undoubtedly can flood throughout excessive climate. And we’ve acquired 11 pictures of exactly that taking place lately, from flooding in subways to water overtaking underground parking garages.

It ought to be famous this man has a internet value of $264 billion. Meritocracy is a fantasy. Abolish billionaires.
