You Won’t Believe How Elon Musk Got Punched in the Face

Tesla CEO Elon Musk recently caught everyone’s attention during a White House press conference with President Donald Trump—not for his work, but for his visibly swollen and bruised eye. Many wondered what caused the injury and why Musk looked like this in such a high-profile event.

Musk joked, “I was playing with X and said, ‘Go ahead, punch me in the face.’ And he actually did.” Musk laughed and said it didn’t hurt much at the moment but later his eye swelled up and turned black.
