Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg posted a viral surfing video in celebration of the 4th of July, leaving viewers baffled.
While many Americans celebrate the 4th of July by barbecuing on the grill and launching fireworks with their friends and family,Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerbergcelebrated a little differently.
In celebration of the country’s independence from Great Britain, Zuckerberg surfed the sea with a drink in hand.
In a 4th of July Instagram post gone viral, the CEO could be seen surfing while wearing a black suit with a bow tie. He was also holding the American flag while sipping a beverage with his other hand.
Lyrics from the patriotic song ‘Born in the U.S.A.’ by Bruce Springsteen also played in the background, “Born in the USA, I was born in the USA.”

However, netizens were confused about whether the video was AI-generated or real. Though he captioned the post, “Happy Birthday, America,” he did not clarify if the clip was fake or not.
“Not AI-generated,” commented one viewer with a laughing emoji. The CEO then responded, “Pure 8-month recovery surfing with a dry start right here.”
“Now that’s content,” added another. Zuckerberg then replied, “Just doing my part.”
The video also received plenty of positive comments, as many agreed he was “too cool” and that the “boss knows how to celebrate.”
