Elon Musk decided to put his two cents and try to settle the debate once and for all, by adding his unique spin to the flat earth theory.

On his Twitter page, the SpaceX and Tesla founder started an online poll asking his followers to respond if the earth was in fact, flat, hollow, or both. At the time of writing this report, around 4 lakh users had voted on the poll, with 60% of people claiming the earth is both flat and hollow.

If it wasn't clear that the whole thing was in fact a big trolling attempt of flat earth believers, then the response to Elon Musk's tweet removed any further doubts.

The earth is actually a delicous, cosmic hollow donut. True story, bro.
