15 minutes ago — Elon Musk’s personal helicopter crashed in the Nevada desert: Police confirmed the entire fuselage exploded, black smoke filled the sky .MD

The Nevada desert has never seen such a terrifying scene. Just 15 minutes ago, Elon Musk’s personal helicopter suddenly lost control in the sky and plummeted into the dry sand, creating a giant fireball. Nevada police confirmed that the entire fuselage exploded immediately after the collision. A thick column of black smoke rose hundreds of meters high, obscuring the fiery sunset.

Witnesses recounted that the moment the helicopter broke its rotor blades and spun, people in the area screamed in despair. “It sounded like the sky was cracking,” one driver described. Paparazzi and fans gathered nearby quickly raised their cameras, flashing continuously, but many people burst into tears and knelt on the ground when they realized Elon Musk was in the plane. Police cordoned off the scene in chaos as hundreds of people jostled to get to the scene.

Immediately after the explosion, ambulances and paramedics rushed into the sea of ​​​​fire. Sirens wailed across the desert, and emergency CPR was performed on the spot. “His body was motionless, we put on an oxygen mask, and we performed chest compressions for 12 minutes,” a paramedic described. The ambulance’s red and blue lights cast a dramatic and chilling light on the yellow sand.

At Reno Hospital, Elon Musk was taken straight to the ICU. The monitor on the wall kept flashing red, and doctors had to shock him multiple times when his heart stopped. All night, the cold white light in the ICU did not turn off. Cardiologists described it as “the most intense emergency of their careers.” Global media crowded outside the hospital, microphones and cameras blocking the entrance.

Meanwhile, social media exploded. The hashtags #PrayForElon and #GoodbyeMusk climbed straight to the top of global trends in just 20 minutes. In California, thousands of fans flocked to Tesla headquarters to light candles, turning the front yard into a sea of ​​light. Colleagues in the tech industry such as Tim Cook, Sundar Pichai, Mark Zuckerberg simultaneously posted prayers. Even some American and European politicians also expressed their condolences.

But the tragedy did not stop there. As the news spread quickly, hundreds of fans flocked to the Nevada desert, jostling on a temporary wooden bridge to look down at the scene. The bridge suddenly collapsed, injuring dozens of people, ambulances rushed in with sirens, turning this place into a “double disaster” in the same day.

Early this morning, the chief doctor of Reno hospital walked out with a tense face. In the bright flash of cameras, he choked: “We did everything. Elon Musk did not make it.” The whole world fell silent in that moment.

In the Nevada night sky, black smoke had not yet cleared, mixed with the cries of fans and the flickering candles in the wind. A call for national mourning was issued. At SpaceX, engineers pledged to erect a giant monument in the desert – right where he died – as an undying promise.

The tragedy not only took a man, but also left an endless void in humanity’s technological dreams. And the question still echoes in the Nevada smoke: What really caused that fateful helicopter to burst into flames?
