Elon Musk Turns Wingwalker

Breitling Wingwalking Team Takes The Billionaire And His Wife For A Jaunt In Hampshire, England

Of all the business success Elon Musk can claim, he now can add "Wingwalker" to his resume ... not that he needs a resume.

Multiple media sources report that Musk and his wife Talulah Riley went for a Saturday afternoon jaunt with the Breitling Wingwalking Team, and Musk posted photos of the stunt on Instagram.

With the photo, Musk said "went for a nice wing walk, what could go wrong?"

Breitling offers members of the public brave enough to climb out to the cockpit and stand on the wing the opportunity to do so for about $620. The company's website says the planes fly at speeds up to 130 miles per hour.

Fortunately ... nothing went wrong.
