The world’s richest man danced with his robot what is Optimus, and why did it dance?

The world’s richest man, Elon Musk, danced energetically with his robot Optimus. His video is going viral on the internet.

Imagine if your salary was so high that you became the world’s first trillionaire — wouldn’t you be dancing with joy? Something similar happened after Tesla’s annual meeting in Austin.

During the event, Elon Musk, the world’s richest person, danced on stage with his robot “Optimus.” The highlight of the meeting was that shareholders approved a massive $1 trillion (around ₹83 lakh crore) pay package for Musk.

After the approval, Elon Musk joked while dancing with his robot, saying, “Everyone’s meetings are boring, but ours is full of fun!”

This moment not only showed Musk’s confidence but also reflected Tesla’s growing ambition in technology and robotics, proving once again how innovation and leadership can shape the future of the AI-driven world.

Why was a $1 trillion pay package given?

More than 75% of Tesla’s shareholders have approved Elon Musk’s $1 trillion pay package — one of the biggest in corporate history. As soon as the voting results were announced, the crowd began chanting “Elon! Elon!” in excitement.

This pay package has been designed to keep Musk connected with Tesla for the next seven and a half years. If the company successfully meets its goals, Musk’s ownership in Tesla could increase from 12% to more than 25%.

Tesla’s chairperson, Robyn Denholm, explained that if Elon Musk ever decided to leave, the company’s stock value could drop, which is why keeping him is essential.

By approving such a massive compensation plan, investors have shown strong faith in Musk’s vision — from AI development and self-driving cars to humanoid robots. It’s a clear sign that they believe in Musk’s leadership and the future Tesla is building through innovation and technology.
