Sicily’s famed cascading limestone cliff may not be the obvious choice for the next takeover bid by the world’s richest man, but one Italian man is hoping for such an eventuality. Part of the island’s Turkish Steps is being readied for sale, with a call to Elon Musk to buy it. 

Ferdinando Sciabarrà, 72, who was last year officially declared owner of a slice of the cliff’s upper level after a long legal tussle with the local authority in Realmonte, Agrigento, and after years of complaints about the landmark’s upkeep, believes the multibillionaire would know how to look after it much better.
