In the midst of March Madness, we created our own bracket of the 64 best living, historical and fictional BIZ Experiencess ever. Now, after three weeks of voting, you've picked your favorite BIZ Experiences of all time: Elon Musk. And while there were plenty of great contenders in our bracket -- from Vito Corleone to Jeff Bezos to runner up Henry Ford -- it makes sense that the Tesla and SpaceX founder is the last BIZ Experiences standing.

Musk's brand has never been more popular. Tesla recently surpassed GM to become the most valuable company in America. SpaceX is planning to launch a revolutionary rocket this summer. Even Musk's tweets of farting unicorns are now big news.

He's one of the wealthiest and most powerful people on the planet, and he's only 45 years old. Who knows what he'll come up with next.
