Having been told to “stick his submarine where it hurts,” Elon Musk took to twitter this morning to defend himself against British diver Vernon Unsworth, calling him a “pedo” in the process. Musk claims he never even saw Unsworth and was escorted in by Thai navy seals to help, challenging the notion he was asked to leave quickly. He also promised he would send his sub again to prove it would have worked.
"I challenge this dude to show final rescue video." In his next tweet six minutes later, Musk replied, "don't bother showing the video" and promised to send his sub to the spot where the soccer team was trapped. "I was *asked* to help repeatedly," Musk continued in another tweet. "Declined several times, as I thought they had it in hand & only agreed to help when Thai SEAL died (deep cave pumps not operating at time). We designed the mini-sub to Stanton's specifications *and* brought a flexible rescue pod just in case."
