Musk revealed that he had been assassinated twice in the past 8 months

July 15: Following the failed assassination attempt on U.S. presidential candidate Donald Trump last weekend, Tesla CEO Elon Musk said he himself had suffered two assassination attempts in recent months.

Musk publicly expressed his hope for Trump's "speedy recovery" after he was shot in the ear at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, on Saturday, and spoke about his own experience with the attack. Musk wrote that two men had tried to kill him in the past eight months, both of whom had been captured about 20 minutes from Tesla's Gigafactory in Austin, Texas, and were carrying guns.


Musk also mentioned the situation at Tesla's annual shareholder meeting last month when asked by a shareholder how he ensures his safety and how he takes care of himself as a high-profile figure. He responded that he understands shareholders' concerns and once again emphasized the severity of the current situation.

"I mean, it's a little crazy right now," Musk said. "A rough estimate is that the likelihood of a killer trying to kill you is proportional to the number of killers who hear your name. Well, they often hear my name, so I thought, 'Okay, I must be on their list.' Yes, in the past seven months or so, there have been two crazy people who attempted to kill me and others. So this is not just for me. They didn't come up with any specific motive, they just wanted to kill people, so I do need to be careful." (Source: IT Home)
