Book Description | Growing up in South Africa, Elon Musk tasted pain and learned how to survive it. When he was twelve years old, he entered a wilderness survival camp, known there as the Fieldsskool; He remembers that experience by saying: “The situation there was similar to the events of the novel Lord of the Flies.” They only allowed each child very limited rations of food and water, and what was worse was that they encouraged them to fight over it. “Bullying was considered a virtue there,” his younger brother Kimball confirmed, and the older kids quickly learned to punch the younger ones in the face and grab their stuff. Elon, who was young and generally not good at social situations, was beaten twice and ended up losing ten pounds. |
