Viral News: Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg, tech giants known for their workaholic personalities, took their rivalry to social media over the 4th of July weekend viral video of Zuckerberg.

The drama began with Zuckerberg posted his viral video of himself wakeboarding while sporting a tuxedo, American flag, and a can of beer in his hand. The internet, as expected, had mixed reactions. Some praised Zuckerberg's "swagger," while others found the whole scene a bit...well, awkward.

One user posted ‘I hate to admit it but Mark Zuckerberg has swagger.’

Mark Zuckerberg's Happy birthday, America! US post went viral on social media.

Elon Musk Mocks Zuckerberg's Surfing Viral Video Post: 

Enter Elon Musk, the master of online jabs. Responding to a post about the video, Musk took a playful but pointed dig at Zuckerberg's celebratory display. "May he continue to have fun on his yachts," Musk wrote sarcastically. "I prefer to work."

This comment adds fuel to the fire of a perceived difference in priorities between the two tech giants. Musk, known for his relentless work ethic and ambitious ventures like SpaceX and Tesla, seems to suggest Zuckerberg is focused on leisure, while he himself remains laser-focused on progress.

Netizens Reaction to Musk Zuckerberg Clash:

One user wrote, ‘We’d actually prefer it if you took a week off away from Twitter.’ commenting on Musk's tweet. Another user wrote, ‘Elon you’re allowed to take a day off in the name of America.’

Whether this is a friendly jab or a deeper-rooted dig is up for interpretation. Regardless, it's a reminder that the world of tech is a competitive business, and even the CEOs like to play it hard.
