2015, Colbert: “You’re a billionaire trying to do good things. Superhero or supervillain? You have to choose one.” Elon: shows him a robot snake that plugs itself into your car Colbert: “Is that thing going to attack me in my sleep?” Elon, completely deadpan: “For the prototype, at least, I would recommend not dropping anything when you’re near it.” Ten years later he’s built reusable rockets, humanoid robots and the best-selling EV on the planet, and he’s still the only CEO who can deliver a product safety warning and a punchline in the same sentence. Superhero, obviously. Just one with a very dry sense of humor. @elonmusk
