I really hope those people realize how big of a genius Elon is and how passionate he is about building the bridge to the future for humanity before it's too late. At the same time I also feel like with making things like spaceflight public, it can really end up in disorganised chaos as firstly, space is still unpredictable for now atleast and secondly, even if sending people to Space or Mars is strictly monitored and controlled there can be unknown challenges and risks at stake. Don't get me wrong, I really like Elon Musk. It's just that I'm really curious to know and understand how this will all initially and eventually work.

Up next , Falcon Heavy to deploy even heavier payloads with same or better efficiency.

The more i learn about Elon Musk and the more I'm speechless because it is incredible in how many ways this man is inspiring. At first I was completely amazed when the journalist asked "Did you think "I need to pack this", Elon answered "Never", and the journalist asked " Why not" and Elon said "I don't ever give up (...)", i mean the way he said that so calm but at the same time firm and unbreakable let me believe that he really never ever thought to give up, not for a second neither in the toughest moment. As many other comments highlighted, I think the most touching part of the interview is about his Heroes not supporting him. I mean he has had the people that inspired him since he was a child going against his idea, seemingly not even visiting his company... it's like a child that hears now from Messi and CR7 that he won't never become a football champion... And he did't give up neither beacause of that... To me this is self-confidence, brave, dreamer and inspirational of the next level. PS. Last but not least, I think the journalist deserves lots of compliments for this incredible interview and the questions he asked let people know not only the achievements, but most important the mindset of the man behind SpaceX and Tesla.

“When something is important enough you do it even if the odds are not in your favour” my life’s motto because of Elon.

[@crazyforvideosdx]

Who's here after the launch? I remember watching this interview and Elon is such an inspiration. Sometime the little kid with heart can win over the sumo wrestlers

[@coldcase8085]

12:07 -- He is like a kid. Felt bad for him. He will prove them wrong.

[@AmericanAF]

He's not like a kid. He's just authentic, like a kid.

[@paulgosu2773]

American AF what?

[@serp1732]

Paul Smith as in he’s trying to be nice and not shoot back even though he is extremely hurt that his hero’s are doubting him, he wants to make them proud also

[@Aquiles_Baeza_parada]

and He did it!! and now he is not only become a hero too, he becomes a legend!!

[@smittyjohnson9554]

Opening space up to the private sector is one of the few smart things the government has done in a long time.

[@eemage9476]

Obama government for that

[@thenormaldino3404]

8:20 "Never, i dont ever give up" **gansta paradise music plays**

[@shirolee]

12:06 When your heroes turn their backs on you, you become the hero that they couldn't be.

[@JJ-iq5cv]

Thanks Obama - you enabled a genius

[@mashable8759]

Really how?

[@davidr9761]

@@mashable8759 If I understand correctly, the Obama administration was what set commercial resupply services (CRS) and commercial crew program into motion!

[@selamneway5939]

and created a monster

[@aaronp818]

At 12:54 you could see his chin quiver. I can’t wait for Elon to prove them wrong.

[@pjc8056]

Aaron Patton already has!!

[@aurelstrat1829]

Today, he proved them WRONG!

[@mimilamar5662]

Love him.

[@rb8049]

Great to watch 10 years after taping. He has achieved everything he planned and more.

[@rose_d_mary]

2012: you put $100M into this thing that might not work? 😳 2020: *launches humans*

[@rose_d_mary]

@Master Of puppets thank you Master Of puppets

[@milanjana1919]

12:23 such a emotional situation 😫

[@kimorsa]

After watching them successfully sending astronauts to ISS, I can’t imagine the joy they are feeling right now. The falcon works. The dragon works. The two astronauts are now in ISS. What a brilliant achievement.

[@BryanWellington]

To see Bob Behnken and Doug Hurley blast off into orbit today, onboard the SpaceX vehicle, was simply amazing

[@keeshenraj]

2012 - worth nearly 2 billion 2024 - worth 290billion dollars 🤯

[@carloslionel1653]

Over $440 billion now. Insane.

[@foreignbananabread689]

Even the interviewer is skeptical everyone is eating there words now

[@rasalghul3963]

I wonder what the haters are gonna say when his spaceship lands on Mars 😂😂

[@nostalgicaf3245]

I seriously admire how Elon himself started up his own space company and it just amazes me of how ambitious he is... I legit wanted to cry when he said that his heroes were the ones who were against him :_(

[@ShannaLaesway]

Elon Musk has heart and a brilliant mind.

[@doubletrouble2283]

It has happened. Who’s here in 2020?

[@yudoball]

8:19 the interviewer looks like a proud dad

[@079mohd.danishjaved8]

8:20 that iconic line ❣️

[@michaeltoppo9794]

In such awe of this mans courage vision and grit!!!

[@SaiHemanthReddyWilliamHGates]

10:53 Well we are only a few weeks from the first Human Flight on Crew Dragon

[@constructioneerful]

This remains one of the best Spacex biographies.

[@MegaTech81]

His ambition made the reporter cry too. Hats off to both of them

[@loveanimals-0197]

I can guarantee you that this interviewer talks like that with his radio voice even at his house. "Miss Wife. You have made a coffee, that has captured my imagination. Well done." "Oh Son. You have done a tremendous job writing the English alphabet."
