Elon Musk insults cave rescuers as "pedophiles"

After the rescue of the Thai football team, a dispute over an offer of help from the entrepreneur Elon Musk has developed. The American billionaire scolded one of the British divers who was rescuing from a cave as "pedophiles" via Twitter. Earlier, diver Vern Unsworth said about Musk: "He can push his submarine where it hurts."

Musk had a small submarine developed by one of his companies for rescue on his own to bring costs to Thailand. However, the team of Thai and international badistants denied it. Many have accused the American of being interested only in "self-promotion." The twelve footballers and their coach were also saved thanks to a spectacular rescue operation with many divers.

Diver Unsworth told the American news channel CNN that Musk's offer was "just a publicity stunt." "There was absolutely no chance that it would work." The rigid outer shell of the submarine provided was about 1.70 meters too long to avoid curves and obstacles. "He would not have gone 50 meters into the cave."

This submarine donated Musk for rescue – but it was not used.

Musk returned to Twitter that he had never seen "this British guy living as a stranger in Thailand," in Cave. Then he also called him "pedo guy", a "pedophile guy". When waves hit social networks, Musk did not comment. The tweets were then removed from his account.

Musk, who is also a Canadian and South African citizen, is best known for electric car company Tesla and its private space company SpaceX. He has more than 22 million followers on Twitter.
