Viral Video Sparks Reactions
In the clip, the man is seen enjoying a meal of rice when a friend playfully calls him "Elon Musk" in Pashto. His striking resemblance to the Tesla and SpaceX CEO quickly caught the internet's attention, leading to a flood of memes and witty comments.
Social media users couldn’t resist drawing comparisons and jokingly speculated that Musk might have a long-lost twin. Some even called for an epic meeting between the real Elon Musk and his doppelgänger.
Hilarious Social Media Reactions
Netizens had a field day reacting to the viral footage:
"Pakistan is the only country where every celebrity has a twin!" joked one user.
"Elon Musk is in Pakistan, Donald Trump is here too—so who’s running America?" quipped another.
"Meet Elon Khan from Pakistan!" someone playfully suggested.
This isn’t the first time an Elon Musk lookalike has surfaced in Pakistan. Previously, photos of another man, dressed in traditional shalwar kameez and bearing a strong resemblance to the billionaire, made the rounds online. However, some users speculated that those images might have been AI-generated.
The World’s Many Elon Musks
Pakistan isn’t the only country with a Musk doppelgänger. China once had its own version, known as “Yi Long Musk,” who gained viral fame for his resemblance to the tech mogul. Reddit users couldn’t resist cracking jokes, with one commenting, "Man, the Chinese really can counterfeit anything!"
From Pakistan to China, it seems like Elon Musk has clones popping up worldwide. Now, the only question left is—when will we see them all in one room?
