He Camped Outside of Space X Headquarters for Months, and You Won’t Believe Why

One YouTuber and TikToker has made it his mission to get a simple hug from Elon Musk. The man has camped outside Space X headquarters for weeks trying to get the attention of Elon, even getting a reply from Musk’s very own mother. Since he’s already got Musk’s mother’s attention, and she wasn’t too happy, it seems his mission has already failed.
