A bizarre video has surfaced of Elon Musk’s dinner table actions and it has left everyone saying the same thing.
The clip of the billionaire has been doing the rounds on social media after he appeared to have some strange table manners (or lack thereof).
Musk was seated next to President Donald Trump during the dinner, which is said to have taken place at the president’s Mar-a-Lago estate in Palm Beach, Florida, on March 15.

In the video, the Tesla boss can be seen playing with a fork and two spoons, balancing the cutlery on one finger.
Viewing the bizarre behavior was Neuralink director Shivon Zilis, who is the mother of four of Musk’s children.

Many people have taken to social media to share their reactions to the footage.
One user wrote: “Not at the dinner table!”
While another person said: “Ah yes. Peak 5 year old behavior.”
A third commented: “Engineer dinner table entertainment.”

A fourth user wrote: “I did this s**t when I was 6 for attention, thinking I was a god damn genius. This man is over 50.”
And a fifth added: “We all feel this because we were all once children at the dinner table crafting silverware balancing art followed by looking around for approval of said skills.”
However, not everyone was as critical of the behavior, with one user writing: “Now that’s some next-level multitasking! Balancing cutlery like it’s a physics demo, all while talking policy with Trump, only Elon could make dinner look like a TED Talk and a magic show in one.”

Musk doesn’t appear to be fazed by the backlash to his antics, with the SpaceX CEO taking to his own social media platform X, formerly Twitter, to explain exactly what he was doing.
He wrote: “A fork and two spoons balanced on the tip of my finger.”
Although, while it might seem like a bit of harmless fun at a dinner party, according to a Daily Mail report, just one seat at Trump’s dinner came with a required ‘$1 million contribution per guest’.
This means it might have been a pretty pricey meal for Musk.

The world’s richest man has been seen by Trump’s side regularly in recent months after supporting him in his election campaign.
Following Trump’s return to the White House, Musk was appointed as the new head of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), which has proven to be controversial.
