Before the earnings were announced, Musk promised that upon selling 50,000 hats with The Boring Company logo, his company would start selling flamethrowers and added that even though it is little off-brand, “kids love it.”

The billionaire managed the expectations of the general public, later announcing the production of flamethrowers to make the world safer in case of a possible zombie apocalypseThe flamethrower cost $500, while The Boring Company offered a signature $30 fire extinguisher if something went wrong.

Despite seeming like quite a ridiculous way to spend one's money, the entire stock of 20,000 flamethrowers ended up completely sold out less than a week after the beginning of the sales.
