What if, in his will, he trolls us by having someone remove the foot from his corpse, and carry it to Mars?

I think market description implies him being alive.

As people, we know that is the intent, but technically speaking, he's still "setting foot." I think the man who likes physical puns like "let that sink in" would like the other one as well.

predicts NO

The man is currently 52. It'll be at least a decade (probably 2) before any human sets foot on Mars let alone "regular" people. It'll be an extraordinarily uncomfortable journey, for which you'll need to be in absolute peak physical condition. Elon is a billionaire. He doesn't want to spend his golden years confined to a couple dozen cubic square feet eating protein packets on an exercise bike and peeing into a hose. He hasn't even been to low Earth orbit yet! Trust me, he doesn't want to go.

@NateBaer Yeah, I'm surprised the market is giving this one more than 20%, I thought it would settle lower than that.

@NateBaer "He doesn't want to spend his golden years confined to a couple dozen cubic square feet eating protein packets on an exercise bike and peeing into a hose."

That sounds exactly like the type of thing musk would like to do!

What if he dies on impact?

@DarrylDaytona That wouldn't count

predicts NO
