Transcript
00:00Welcome back. Do you know that the man who once slept on the floor of his office is now trying
00:05to take humanity to Mars? This is not just a story. This is Elon Musk's unbelievable journey
00:12from failure to the future. Elon Musk was born in 1971 in Pretoria, South Africa. As a child,
00:19he was shy and often lost in his imagination. While other kids played outside, Elon spent hours
00:25reading books and learning about science and technology. At the age of 12, he built his first
00:31video game and sold it for $500. Elon always believed that America was the land of opportunity,
00:38the place where impossible ideas could come true. He moved to Canada first then to the United States
00:43to study at the University of Pennsylvania. But Elon wasn't meant to follow. He was born to lead.
00:50In the 1990s, when the internet was still new, Elon and his brother Kimball created a company
00:55called Zip2. It helped newspapers go online, something revolutionary at that time.
01:01In 1999, Compaq bought Zip2 for $307 million. Elon was just 27 years old and already a millionaire.
01:10But Elon wasn't satisfied. He wanted to change how money moved online. He co-founded X.com,
01:16which later became PayPal L. When eBay bought PayPal for $1.5 billion, Elon's dream only grew bigger.
01:23Not his bank account, but his vision. In 2002, Elon took the biggest risk of his life.
01:29He founded SpaceX, a company that wanted to make rockets reusable and reach Mars.
01:34Everyone called him crazy. Rockets exploded. Millions were lost. At the same time,
01:39his electric car company Tesla was also failing. He was broke sleeping on factory floors borrowing
01:44money for rent. But Elon never gave up. In 2008, everything changed. SpaceX successfully launched its
01:54first rocket into orbit. Tesla delivered its first roadster to customers. From that moment,
02:02Elon Musk became the symbol of innovation, courage, and resilience. Today, Elon Musk is behind some of the
02:11most revolutionary companies in the world. Tesla, SpaceX, SolarCity, Neuralink, Starlink, and the
02:21boring company. He's not just building companies. He's building the future. Elon Musk's story is not
02:28about luck or money. It's about vision, hard work, and never giving up. He faced failure, rejection,
02:34and doubt, but turned every fall into a new rise. From a small boy in South Africa to the richest man
02:41on earth. Elon Musk proved one thing. If you dare to dream big and never quit, the universe itself will
02:47open its doors for you. Believe, work hard, never give up. The Elon Musk way.
