South Africa through the eyes of the world - Funny

[Muckaduck]

I'm a snake, and I find this offensive..

[tokkelkop]

This may be a bit funny, but it is the reason he survived you dumbasses. Oh! and by the way you don't need a lot of money to become fat Douschecastle

[KLE34]

That american woman is a retard. what was so funny ?? i have never and will never understand american humour - they so stupid and fat !

[DoucheCastle]

Don't hate. Just because you're too poor to afford the food to be fat doesn't mean you need to piss about it.

[KLE34]

lardass !

[Stitches6260]

I can't believe these dumb comments I read about South Africa and this video. I'm South African and I'm proud of it, by the way that man was damn clever because that was the only way he could survive. Most people would just die

[ftfr4nk]

no wonder americans are so thick!! they actually show this stuff on the news???

[ocgditto]

I can't believe this video also had to turn into a racists argument. It's just a funny thing (although the man is lucky, it could have been a sad story), that happened to an ordinary South African. We in South Africa are so much more than just the racism issues and political turmoil other countries seem to be so obsessed with. This man survived an attack by a deadly snake by biting it and having a sense of humor about it! And he got his 15 minutes too. I hope he enjoyed his fame!

[donross1970]

dumbass....this is only a joke!!! how do you think the cams were there on time.? lighten up and laugh at africa, theres alot to laugh at!!!!

[francois081]

your the dumbass... its a remake. we all know this aren't the real video. Oooh and you are right about alot to laugh at,,,,your the joke now.

[ocgditto]

@donross1970

Mmmm, ever heard of a reenactment?!

[twisted709]

im a south african,not proudly though, where i live most people are religious extremists and basically lives on rugby and beer,and many are racist s (black and white ppl).

so i guess i still need a reason to love my country...beside the wildlife

[Zuluking76]

let me help you with this you're not south african... you come a long line of white supremacist who colonized some of African soil. i love when white people say they are not part of Africa..... europe is waiting for you, youre real country.

[twisted709]

lol ok

[TGBAgentOrange]

Racist is what you are... So Egyptians aren't Africans? If you know your history you would know that there was only 1 tribe in South Africa who are true South Africans, and there is very few of them left because of the Northern neighbors infiltrating and stealing their land.... not only the "whites"

[Zuluking76]

i'm not racist. there are many Africans in egypt and i'm not talking about the arabs that colonize egypt. they are not African. they are racist! evil! people. you are primitive in thought... we are not tribes.. we are many nations in a continent. can't say the same for europe. to say that it was only one nation there is so uneducated. that's your justification for inslaving and killing a people. europeans and arabs have caused toal destruction! in and out of Africa.

~Zuluking~

[danieEMOprincess]

LMFAO!! i'm south africa, and found this soo funny. but i find it wrong that it was on a news station to the public, or was it???

[zsifk]

Oh no, it does not hurt me in the least. Remember, our opinions of Americans are built around great intellectual shows like Jerry Springer. And these people have nuclear weapons! It seems its SA: 1 USA: The population of the Midwest.

[missfl70]

I no longer watch TV for that very reason. I hate American culture, and I get all my news from the Internet.

[soulposishun]

seriously. exactly 100% right.

[missfl70]

To 09feb1992

I'm sure it makes you feel bad when that is the image that they have of you. But you can turn it around and tell them that South Africa is one of most beautiful places on earth and you are proud of your country. :)

[09feb1992]

To Missfl70

No i am not incorrect. The majority of people do think people in South Africans live in huts & its like 60 degrees outside, i know cause i have met people who do think that.

Its stops being "funny" when people start to believe in this rubbish stuff. Do you know how that makes South Africans around the world feel????/

[missfl70]

Well, I guess that just reflects that the education that these people you are encountering isn't very good. I confess that I didn't know much about S. Africa when I was your age, either.

Now that I am older, I am more interested in world events and other countries. Our news here is very US centered, so if you want to know what is happening, you have to search on the Internet. I did not have the Internet when I was a teen, otherwise I would have been much more knowledgeable.

[thebeerbaron666]

It's no hotter in SA than it is in Las Vegas / Arizona

[missfl70]

Youtube wouldn't let me reply under the person's comment. It's on p. 2

[barnsoldat91]

hahahaha the best part is 0:37 - 0:42

[barnsoldat91]

silly negro

[vincent4492]

You see if some people would acctually notice that there is a world outside theyr Fishbowl!!!

They would also stop asking if I had lions in my Back yard!!!!

Or if there were Tigers on the street!!!!

I mean FUCK man Tigers live in India!!!! and no there isnt a shortage of food!!!

Yes we have enough water and no it isnt 50 degrees there!!!

Eish some people are just too f****** stupid

[8Elvenfury8]

i agree, real domkops out there =P

[09feb1992]

haha, they must carrying on thinking like that.

All the better for us south africans.

We can keep our beautiful country which is better than other countries to ourself :P :)

[1cyan5]

Where would you find an open field like that near Johannesburg? It's rediculous!

[buildingabetterSA]

What a useless news channel. There is more to South Africa than snakes. What a stupid bunch of people. Ah, it kills me! Stupid stupid stupid people. Ignorant as hell.

[CyrilKlopper]

I'm South African and that was hillarious!

I love that guy (and the newsreader was pretty funny too)

[09feb1992]

so what if snake arent ment to be put in mouths. Its not your mouth.

most americans think that south africans live in huts & ride wild animals to work or school

typical americans

[xCuppyCakeSqueakersx]

Omfg.

I know right?

eo;

Pisses me off..

[TheCleanerMan]

It's true. Not just americans think like that. Many other cultures too. My friend's wife is polish. She was so scared before her first visit to SA. It was so funny :-)

[africanamamu]

Cool I like him and would do same HA HA LOL

[BiltongBaz]

I remember that ! Ya -he had to bite the things spine to get it to let go

[Alprazolam08]

poor snake, he got bit by a nigger!

[Swanbow]

I was being sarcastic, but then again I did quite make it apparent. The guys face was priceless, Haha.

[optixit]

Sorry Mark. I should have checked your profile first! Yure forgiven

[Swanbow]

You ignorant bitch. That snake could of killed him, I hope you get attacked by a snake. Lets see what you will do then.

[optixit]

Halloooooo to the real world fuktard. Snakes are not meant to be put in the mouth! Are you black or just plain stoopit

[buildingabetterSA]

Stupid fucking american! There are too many of them in the world. Why is SA being made a joke of?

[0o0doir0o0]

what the hell is so funny??

[168PDK861]

It is nothing BUT a one party state. I read the comment while in Nigeria that Jacob Zuma said the ANC will rule until Jesus comes again. Is that a rational comment coming from our next President? The same guy who slept with a known aids sufferer ( who claimed she was raped ) and then showered afterwards, Whose "theme-song" includes "bring me mymachinegun" You think the video is funny. Come to AFRICA and I'll show you funny. Fucking hilarious. And fucking sad.

[168PDK861]

If they cannot take on the American Army might, they hijack planes with innocent civilians and fly them into buildings occupied by innocent civilians. Are they heroes? Freedom fighters? Soldiers? No, they are cowards who revel in they art of terrorism. Anybody can kill an unarmed civilian. That's why anybody who makes the statement of freedom fighters and heroes of the "armed struggle" please refrain, unless you grew up where you had to look under tables when eating out for mini-limpet mines.

[huntleyhouse]

Americans have a strange sense of humour lol

[McChickenNuggetz]

hahahahahaha thats funny.

[168PDK861]

We did not embark on active extermination like the rest. We put them in homelands, gave them their own governance. What happened? Go move around the old "homelands" Nice "Africa" experience. People kill and slaughter, rape, rob, hijack now just outside my frontdoor instead of in the townships and homelands like before '94. Where does the problem originate from. From the suburbs? The white areas? Maybe idiots, bigots and fucking hypocrites. Not mad-dog killers.

[treskall1]

You never hear about the autonomy of the homelands in Europe. Basically SA is just put forth as a prime example of what good can come out of international sanctions. Left wing leaders around Europe disregard completely the factors of armed ANC guerillas, less US support after the cold war, weariness from the border war etc. and think that bringing down Apartheid was solely something they managed to do by boycotting pre 94 South Africa.

[168PDK861]

We had to join the international community eventually. Not because of outside pressure. We managed quite nicely isolated. We adapted and survived. Now, I can tell you, the guy who planted a bomb in a crowded bar and blew 3 to kingdom come and maimed a lot more was the chief of traffic police in my area.Got fired for driving drunk. Was a foreign emmisary once. Ambassador. Much more examples of this type of "Heroes" we have in governance now. Crying fucking shame that cowardice is rewarded. Bitter

[treskall1]

Yeah, that Bobby is quite a joker. Heard he also threatened to kill some of the officers who blew his cover about the drunk driving incident. On the scene the Metro police allegedly threatened to shoot witnesses. That whole thing stinks...

His bombing of the crowded bar happened during the 80s and the so called struggle for freedom, so I guess that gives him a free pass? But as a high ranking official blatantly misusing his authority? Are people OK with that, just so long he is not white?

[168PDK861]

No. As long as they belonged to the right side. We had some liberals and free thinkers who also aided the cause who are also givin a "free license" as long as the right palms get greased along the way of the gravy train. Look, all governments are corrupt but putting up self-confessed murderers and terrorists as leaders is going to lead to something not as quaint as corruption. Attacking soft targets are not the action of soldiers, so please, no comments on freedom fighters.

[treskall1]

Yes, I know. But it seems to be the general consensus that any action from that time was warranted, at least if it came from ANC. And it makes sense that the most prolific prisoners are given high positions now that their friends are in high ranking positions. SA seems to be a one party state. And their politics are not about left or right, more about getting rich fast and making strange policies in order to appease the mass of people who are not getting rich.

[Decypha77]

I don't get what the issue is here... why was race even brought up? I'm a black South African and I find this hilarious.

Apartheid is history, I'm tired of hearing about it, tired of people rehashing it and whatsoever. I'm prepared to move on as long as everybody else is. There are bigger issues in society today.

[JaquesDeBlanche]

EXACTLY!

[777jboss777]

lol...just remember that that guy will fuck you up..and take you to his neighbourhood,,paint you brown,,,and drink black label whislt you hang to a tree..

[dudleyfeebish]

What a moron! Only in South Africa will you see this...

[BaphometsUnholySon]

And you, dear dumbass, would run screaming. Yeah I have seen some arb shit in SA but dont be a fucktard

[09feb1992]

PROULDLY COLOURED SOUTH AFRICAN

[Zampan0]

i don't understand the laughter.

[mozcorson]

jeez there are a bunch of ignorant oaks commenting on this video. Im a proud white south african male who regards all our "races" here equally. Rather keep ur vulgar and politcally "stupid" comments for the bar or pub or wherever else u can justify talking such crap. On an international site such as Youtube, think twice before slurring such racist slander all over the walls so to speak.

[KENA429]

the blacks are just and evil criminal race and you can not have black rule. The blacks dont value life like whites.

After the last white emigrates or is murdered in Africa i hope the whole continent starves or gets Aids. Sorry i am bitter.

[wweebu]

porque tan resentido con los engros, facil te emtieron la pinga por el orto

[prepschoolkid]

i value life very much and I am black.

[treskall1]

I think he was referring to the lives of others as well. You don't see white South Africans murdering families over a couple of rands and raping the young females before they leave.

[prepschoolkid]

I do vakue the lives of others

[treskall1]

Well, good. We need more individuals like that in the world.

[prepschoolkid]

there is waaay to much death and destruction in this world

[mlfunction]

FUCK i'm sick of seeing every comment being about racism.the past, black, white and all that shit cant people just comment on what they see and put all that crap in the back of their fucking heads. shit!!!!

[optixit]

Very valid point. Unfortunately black african racism is here to stay and it seems racism in general worldwide is a fact. Im a white south afican who left the country due to reverse racism. Im happier than ever, safe, make good money in europe and quite frankly couldnt care a shit about the color of my skin or of the skin of others as long as they let me be...

[stur18]

yes. god so over it... its supposed to be a thing of the past lol

[boredom10101]

hahahahahaha

[ginobili210]

yo @ :27, :40, :51 and

[ginobili210]

@:59 tell me that shit aint funy.. i favorite this video for crying out loud so what that makes me racist??

fuck you its comedy dumbasses its his face expression that is funny not the color of his skin, fucking idiots make a big deal about nothing....

[cooper560ca]

South Africa was completely self-sufficient for decades. They did it with inginuity, hard work and brilliant minds. The West forced them to give it up to the ANC and now look at what's happened. It's a joke, and UN sponsored genocide of SA whites. Now the western media laughs at some monkey claiming he bit a snake. The West and the rest of the world should have stayed the fuck out of SA's affairs. I'm a white Canadian, you can call me a racist if you want.

[thesaoak]

Bru segrigation is not the answer... That shit the afrikanners pulled was wrong... What the hell where they thinking? As a Proud white SOUTH AFRICAN, i can appretiate what they did in terms of developing the country... but thats about as far as it goes...they did so much to shatter the relations betwen races that what ever development they did bring about it is outwayed by the amount absolute terror of that time.. But having said that we are a tough breed of warm people & we will reunite as 1!

[jibjib106]

Totally agree, as another white South African

[optixit]

Very wise words M8. See my comment above

[KiwiBasher]

So what are you doing in the UK? I thought that you love your black bretheren?

[Outjo]

hmmm....so white English South Africans did not benefit then? A bit of a holier than thou attitude don't you think?

[Finger2212]

I'm Canadian too, but the situation is far different in South Africa than it is here. It's not like us with the Natives, where we as Whites make up the vast majority of the country's population and can therefore feel justified in calling the shots. Blacks make up 80% of South Africa's population, and to subjugate them to less than 10% of the population is wrong any way that you look at it.

[KiwiBasher]

Now get back to your frozen wasteland you American lapdog and keep your "Natives" in check.

[Finger2212]

And you can keep on taking it in the ass from Australia on your tiny barren rock in the ass end of nowhere. ;)

Stereotypes are awesome haha.

Natives represent 3.8% of our population, Blacks represent 79.5% of South Africa's.

I'd hardly say we're being hypocrites.

[mybliksem]

Why do natives represent 3.8% of your population Finger? Because your ancestors killed most of them when they were invading the country..... Of course you can feel justified in calling the shots, you eradicated most of the people who were there first, so now nobody is left to stand up against you. I'm a white South African, and yes there was segregation, but did we kill all the black people before we took over? No we gave them their own homelands and turned SA into a better country.

[Finger2212]

Oh please. South African settlers had no better intentions than the Europeans who landed in Canada and the U.S did.

It is no secret that practically all colonists held the Aboriginals in low regard, but Canadians really didn't pursue military extermination like the U.S did. Yes, I'm sure our ancestors really didn't fret that the Natives were being massacred by diseases that we caused, but it was unintentional at the same time.

We lowered their numbers by expanding Westward, not with rifles.

[Finger2212]

To imply that we are a lesser people because we outnumber the native population is absurd.

[KiwiBasher]

Hypocrite!

Fork tongued self deluded liar!

[panamajack5150]

There's nothing racist here, she's only laughing because of the face the guy makes when he bites the snake. It would be just as funny if it were a white guy.

[optixit]

Blacks will find racism in the most of innocent things. Their problem is they cant laugh at themselves and God forbid if you laugh at them - Then yure a racist

[LuigiTendo]

agreed! She's laughing at the face he's making as he keeps reenacting the stunning attack. LOl

arrrrgghhhhh

I would have laughed if it were any race/gender. it's just funny! And her face, gets me, when she laughs, i just have to laugh right along with her

[macafricascot]

They don't just have a chip on their shoulders more like a building site.

[panamajack5150]

Funny!

[ethanvin]

lol nice video, funny thing is that the rest of the world is laughing at the US...and they dont seem 2 realise it...shame. Alot of racist comments here, even South Africans wiv Kaffa! Funny that it doesnt take much 2 wind up a fat ass yank hehe but its a pitty the world judges u on ur dull, fake, loud mouth news lady.

[macedo840509]

Fuck You, what goes up must come down, so u fucken american bitches, will soon be the ones begging for money u bitche, we can farm for ourselves, we might have some racsists both black and white but most of stand hand in hand so fuck ur rasist country and your culture

[sweetchelley]

hey

[JonathanSawyer]

Hey the guys a legend! Check the size of that snake ... reminds me of the Miss California Video!

[kat110e]

fuck you americans. you arrogant, ignorant bastards. your economy is collapsing and soon you will realise that your hedonistic, self-serving society is not the answer. ha ha, lets all laugh at the funny black man. soon you will be ruled by one and i hope he has the balls to sort you fuckers out.

[ProRSA]

LOL! Looks very funny!
