Sarah Abouelkhair is not your typical Egyptian ... and the world has definitely taken note.
This week, Abouelkhair shared screenshots of an alleged conversation with NASA in which she proposes a simple, yet genius idea. Little did she know the world would fall for it.
This is how it all started:
She proposed a "giant grill" prior to a rocket launch
A mock grill was shared
The final proposal was brought forth
BBQ for everyone!
Perks of the proposal 101:
And well ... she had us believing NASA responded
And that Elon Musk's SpaceX wanted in
BuzzFeed?
Netflix too??
It went as far as Ellen Degeneres
It seems as though Abouelkhair has had her eyes on NASA for a while
People on Twitter kinda loved her
Others had different priorities
"Amazing"
"This is everything"
We all just need a tiny percentage of her luck, agreed?
Turns out it was all a social experiment
This is what actually happened
