THEY say ‘never meet your heroes’, but a European fellow is not heeding such advice, as he builds himself a boat to sail across the Atlantic Ocean to see Elon Musk.
The man (pictured) has transformed his apartment in Manchester into a shipyard, and when he’s not working as a machine operator, he works on his boat, LADbible reports.
The longest stint the explorer has spent on one of his vessels so far is five hours, through the canals in Manchester.
However, the chap, who has no engineering qualifications, will have to manage two months across the Atlantic, where he plans to sail to Musk’s SpaceX Starbase in Texas.
The man hopes to accomplish the feat before the year is up.
He has set up a GoFundMe in a bid to bring in the cash needed to build his boat – setting a goal of 69,000.
