High tech billionaire playboy, Elon Musk and the brother of notorious drug kingpin, Pablo Escobar are fueding over Musk’s creation of a flamethrower, which is sold for $500.

Roberto Escobar Gaviria, head of The Escobar Inc., claims Musk copied the design of a flamethower that he previously manufacutred. He claims that one of Musk’s engineers saw his flamethrower during a trip to the  family’s Colombian home back in 2017.

TMZ reports “We’re told while Elon’s guy was out in Medellin that summer, he and Roberto allegedly got to talkin’ about a toy flamethrower that could “burn money.” Burning cash — literally — is apparently a favorite pastime of the Escobars … ya know, ’cause of how rich they were from all drug smuggling and whatnot in Pablo’s heyday. Torching dinero … the new wealth brag.

Anyway, Roberto’s camp claims nothing ever came of that convo — until, suddenly, in January of 2018 … Elon announced his ‘The Boring Company Not a Flamethrower,’ which raked in millions in the first few days on digital shelves. We’re told the Escobars were pissed.”
