A WOMAN swam across a dangerous piranha-infested river to spread the word of her lord and savior, Elon Musk.

The Costa Rican woman put her life at risk to share with others that she believed Musk to be Jesus Christ.

Tamara Espinoza Aguero, 28, undoubtedly believed that the billionaire was the Messiah, and she would let no barriers block her from sharing her beliefs. 

Aguero was barred from entering Argentina from Paraguay by customs officials due to not having a visa, leaving her with one option: to swim across a lake filled with flesh-eating piranhas. 

The woman took off for her swim across the 40-mile-wide Parana River from Bella Vista on June 11.

After beginning her swim, she instantly got swept downstream by the river’s strong current. 

Sadly, it wasn’t the Tesla tycoon who came to save her but rather the Coast Guard.

Video footage shows Aguero shouting as she waited for the rescue boat to help her. 

Aguero later told news outlets that she had a divine calling to spread the word about Musk.

“Elon Musk is Jesus Christ. He has no borders,” she said.

Paraguayan police confirmed that they contacted the Costa Rican Consulate with plans to send her home.

Musk, most popular for his Tesla cars, may not be the reincarnation of Jesus, but he has been attempting to reincarnate the social media platform Twitter since he bought it in 2022.

Musk bought Twitter, which he renamed as X, for $44 billion.

Since Musk’s acquisition, however, he’s been getting himself into situations with advertisers and users alike. 

This week, Musk attended the Cannes Lions advertising festival in Cannes, France. 

While there, Musk was asked to clear up controversial remarks he made last year regarding advertisers.

SpaceX was founded by Elon Musk in 2002.

After advertisers threatened to pull ads from Musk’s social media platform X due to anti-semitic content being spread, the billionaire told advertisers to “go f**k themselves,” reported.

“If somebody’s going to try to blackmail me with advertising? Blackmail me with money? Go f**k yourself. Go. F**k. Yourself. Is that clear,” Musk said.

This year, however, Musk is repenting for his words. 

“It wasn’t to advertisers as a whole,” Musk said. 

“It was with respect to freedom of speech, I think it is important to have a global free speech platform, where people from a wider range of opinions can voice their views.”

“In some cases, there were advertisers who were insisting on censorship,” Musk said.

“At the end of the day … if we have to make a choice between censorship and losing money, [or] censorship and money, or free speech and losing money, we’re going to choose the second.”
