In one of the most emotional revelations ever connected to the billionaire visionary, a hidden video of Elon Musk — reportedly buried for over 12 years — has just resurfaced, and what it shows is shaking the internet to its core.
According to multiple insiders, the footage was filmed during the early SpaceX struggles, right after one of the company’s failed rocket launches. In the clip, Musk can be seen visibly trembling, wiping away tears, and whispering words that few expected to ever hear from him:
“She was the only one who believed in me… when everyone else laughed.”
The mysterious “she” Musk refers to has not been publicly identified — but some close to him hint it could be a woman from his early life, possibly connected to the moment he almost gave up on SpaceX.
One former SpaceX engineer told reporters,
“He wasn’t the Elon you see on stage. He looked… human. Broken. You could tell that loss haunted him.”
Even more shocking is the claim that Musk ordered all copies of the footage to be deleted from SpaceX servers just hours after the interview was filmed — calling it “too personal” and saying, “People don’t need to see their heroes weak.”
But a single copy, somehow preserved on an old backup drive, has now surfaced. In it, Musk speaks for nearly ten minutes about failure, love, and the loneliness of chasing a dream too big for one person to carry.
“People think I wanted to change the world,” he says at one point. “But truthfully, I just didn’t want to disappoint her.”
Since the leak, fans across social media have flooded timelines with emotional reactions. Some call it “the realest version of Elon Musk ever caught on camera.” Others say it’s proof that even geniuses carry heartbreaks the world will never fully understand.
Whatever the truth behind this lost footage, one thing is certain: it has forever changed the way we see the man who built rockets to Mars — and cried for the one person who helped him launch.
