Mark Zuckerberg has posted a surfing video of himself on his Instagram
Tech billionaire Mark Zuckerberg didn¡¯t disappoint his admirers as he put up a striking display. Dressed in a tuxedo, he posted a video of himself surfing in the ocean carrying an American flag in one hand and a beer in the other. Bruce Springsteen¡¯s Born In The USA is playing in the background.
The video, shared on Instagram, has garnered hundreds of thousands of likes and thousands of comments by Thursday afternoon since its posting.
"Happy Birthday, America," Zuckerberg wrote as the caption for the video, accompanied by a US flag emoji. This post marks a notable departure from a similar attempt three years ago when Zuckerberg faced widespread ridicule for a video showing him surfing to John Denver's "Take Me Home, Country Roads."
Many believe that Zuckerberg has been putting in a lot of efforts to transform his public persona from a stiff and awkward tech CEO to a fun-loving one.
His fans and followers have witnessed him taking up jujitsu, getting into public spats with other billionaires, and donning a laid-back style instead of his usual gray t-shirt and jeans attire.

Zuckerberg's personal life isn't the only area seeing growth. Financially, he's experiencing significant success. According to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index, he currently holds the fourth position among the world's wealthiest individuals, boasting an extraordinary net worth of $181 billion(Rs 1.5 lakh crore). In just this year, his wealth has increased by an additional $53.1 billion, largely due to the strong performance of Meta's stock.
