Elon Musk, the billionaire founder and CEO of Tesla, SpaceX and Twitter, is known for his eccentric behaviour. Now, an old video showing his bizarre dance moves during a 2020 event at Tesla's plant in Shanghai has sparked a wave of amusement across the internet. 

The clip was shared on Twitter on Monday by user 'Tesla Owners Silicone Valley'. It showed Mr Musk breaking into an awkward dance and even stripping off his jacket to reveal an NSFW (Not safe for work) T-shirt with a cartoon of the factory. "@elonmusk knows how to get down," the caption of the post read. 

Watch the video below: 

According to CNN, Elon Musk broke into an awkward dance at his company's plant, Tesla Gigafactory, in Shanghai, China. The event was held to celebrate the first deliveries of made-in-China electric vehicles by Tesla in 2020. 

In the clip, Mr Musk was seen walking on the stage at the event for employees and Tesla owners. He was seen removing his blazer and bopping around like no one was watching.

Twitter users were quick to react to the now-viral video. "He's silly and super mischievous, I think he's pretty awesome," wrote one user. "He likely can afford dance lessons. It would be a good investment for him," jokingly said another.
