And it wasn’t planned or prepared beforehand at all.
It was done on a whim.
With Elon cheering and making a $1 bet!
It happened when Elon went on Joe Rogan’s podcast.
Clash of the titans.
In the world of podcasts, Joe Rogan reigns supreme.
His show, “The Joe Rogan Experience,” is an absolute juggernaut, boasting millions of downloads per episode.
“The total length of all 2281 JRE podcasts (excluding sponsored ad reads) is 6,001 hours with an average episode duration of 2hrs 37min 51sec.
Listening to every single episode of The Joe Rogan Experience non-stop would take about 250 days or just over 8 months.”
It’s a platform where the famous and the intellectual come to spar with words, and sometimes, as it turns out, with arrows.
So, why was Elon Musk, the poster child of modern innovation, sitting across from Rogan?
Simple. He was there to talk about the future, and what screams ‘future’ more than a CyberTruck?
Elon , in true showman style, drove the electric beast right to Rogan’s studio in Austin, Texas.
The conversation was flowing, cigars where smoked and alcohol was imbibed, and then, out of the blue, Rogan throws a curveball.
He challenges Musk, asking if the CyberTruck could stand up to an arrow.
Without missing a beat, Musk agrees.
So they went down to the garage and Joe pulled out his compound bow.
And just like that, an arrow is launched and the CyberTruck… survives.
The arrow is destroyed, and the truck?
Barely a scratch.
No shit right.
The car is 7,000 pounds of raw might.
What’s truly remarkable isn’t just the CyberTruck’s resilience, but Musk’s nonchalance.
He’s the mad scientist who’s done his homework, confident in the physics, the stats, the engineering.
His cool demeanor in the face of a pointed challenge is something to behold.
This isn’t just a billionaire’s whim; this is Musk showcasing his creation in the most Musk way possible.
He doesn’t need to prove anything, yet here he is, doing exactly that.
It’s entertainment, it’s content, it’s a glimpse into the mind of a man who’s reshaping our world.
He wasn’t concerned about “damages” or the insurance or warranty or that it would ruin his rep or bad publicity for the CyberTruck.
He was just being a dude like the rest of us.
In a world where billionaires are often seen as out of touch, Musk stands out.
He’s willing to put his creations to the test, literally under bow and arrow.
In the age of content, authenticity reigns supreme.
Musk’s willingness to engage in Joe’s challenge is a masterclass in marketing, yes, but it also shows just how “chill” he really is.
When you believe in your work as Musk does, no challenge is too outlandish, no test too bold.
We can all learn to chill a little more and be less worried, like Elon.
