Pakistani tags Elon Musk, says: Look at your lookalike -- 'Pathan Elon Musk'

An Elon Musk look-alike has been discovered by social media users in Pakistan. A recent video showed an individual in Pakistan whose face resembles the Tesla and SpaceX CEO. The video, recorded at a local food joint in Pakistan’s Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KPK) region showed Musk’s doppelganger enjoying a meal with his friends and was shared on social media platform X (earlier Twitter). This comes after another video of a locally built vehicle with a design similar to Tesla’s Cybertruck was spotted in Pakistani in January.


In the video, the individual who looks like Musk can be seen with friends when one of them addresses him as "Elon Musk" in Pashto. The video was initially uploaded on Instagram and later shared on X with the caption: "Look at this doppelganger of @elonmusk in KPK, Pakistan. Elon Musk Khan Yousafzai." From his jawline to his eyes, the facial features of the Pakistani man bear a resemblance to those of Musk.

In January, a video and photos shared on social media showed a replica of the futuristic Tesla Cybertruck cruising the streets of an unnamed Pakistani city. The video was shared on Instagram with the caption, “Elon Musk wants to know his location!”

At first glance, the sleek, angular design of the truck looks very close to the real vehicle, but as it turns a corner its Pakistani origin is revealed. The Cybertruck replica seems to be an effort by local creators to reproduce one of Tesla's widely recognised vehicles. The Instagram post didn’t reveal the name of the creator of the Pakistani Tesla Cybertruck, yet the vehicle's design is expected to attract attention from automotive enthusiasts.
