Billionaire Elon Musk was captured on video performing an unusual balancing act with cutlery during a dinner with President Donald Trump. The footage shows Musk seriously concentrating whilst balancing a fork and two spoons on his little finger, as Trump and Musk's companion, Shivon Zilis, observe the display.

The exclusive 'candlelight' dinner occurred at Trump's Mar-a-Lago estate in Palm Beach, Florida, on March 15. According to reports, attendees were required to contribute $1 million per seat. The gathering was notably absent from the President's official schedule, as documented by Wired. The dinner coincided with Palm Event, a motorsport competition in Palm Beach.

The dinner invitation, bearing a 'MAGA INC' header, clarified that President Trump was "appearing at this event only as a special guest speaker and is not asking for funds or donations." The contributions were directed towards the Make America Great Again PAC, supporting Trump's 2024 presidential campaign.

The invitation, reviewed by Wired, stated simply: "You are invited to a candlelight dinner featuring special guest President Donald J. Trump." It continued with: "Additional details provided upon RSVP. RSVPs will be accommodated on a first come, first serve basis. Space is very limited. $1,000,000 per person."

The video has since gone viral.

Sharing the video, one X user commented, "Proof that Elon is an alien."

Another said, "Elon Musk effortlessly balances a fork and spoon on one finger while dining with Trump. Peak genius and dinner entertainment."


"Elon Musk built a fork starship at a dinner with Trump. Then he launched himself into space. Secret Service didn’t even flinch. Just another Tuesday," said a third X user.

"Musk only needs 2 spoons and a fork to trend," quipped another.
