Just to think that, at that very place where the video is at 5:25, a bit further down to the left, on Tuesday 31 January at around 6pm, I could have been lying there dead on that pavement. Had it not been for the mercy of God Almighty, Jesus Christ, I would have been stabbed to death most probably. I was crossing the road too by that corner, where the video is at at 8:05, I was going downwards, not upwards just as the content creator did. Cause I can see that he missed the real wrong turn there, and took the right turn instead, good for him. So as I was walking down, with a backpack on my back, I see these two guys behind me, they seemed to be like any other pedestrians on the road, so I thought. They crossed the road to the other side, the other one was saying goodbye to his friend, and he began to run down the street. All of a sudden the one left behind quickly walked in front of me and suddenly stopped and produced a knife. He shouted at me , and made some profanities, claiming that he will be stab me if I make a move. Upon realising that I am being robbed, I quickly took off my backpack and dropped it on the floor, and tried to make a run for it. As I wanted to run on to the other side of the guy wielding a knife, I saw some of his accomplices trying to block me and grab me, I then faced the other direction behind me, I saw more of his accomplices running towards me saying "Um'bambe, u'mbambe"!. Realising that I was now being cornered, I just found myself running back to that guy with a knife, he tried to grab me, but he failed, and I managed to pass him. To my shock, there were many of these guys, say about plus 10. I just had no idea how ,they all appeared from nowhere in a short space of time. By then I managed to escape them, yet one of them stayed hot in my heels, but I outran him. I just could not believe, what had just happened, I was trembling and in shock. Just to think that on the morning of 24th December, the very same thing happened to me, and again I managed to escape leaving my backpack. I had not gotten over the first ordeal, then this happens again, most people dont come out of these robberies unharmed or killed. I was told of some guy who was robbed, stabbed and killed around December time, during that same week I was robbed.Believe me if I had the money and privilleges to leave South Africa, I would have boarded the evening to a peaceful island, that same evening after the second attempted robbery. Just to think that such events, leaves one with a trauma is not a good thing to go through, trust me. Now you have to walk the streets of Jhb with fear, what kind of life, should that be, this country is heaven for crimnals and hell for law abiding citizens, thats just what it is now. I would advice anyone not to go to those very streets that the content creator was walking on, those are really crime ridden spots, stay away from them, especially at night time. Be all safe out there and take all necessary precautions. As for me I am glad that God showed me his great mercy and love, I would not be writing this today, but would have been lying in a morgue, imagine having kids that are still depending on you to raise them, then these scums of the earth want to just take your life and your hard earned money. Peace.

Didn't get off the motorbike many times as my intuition was on alert all the time. Taxi drivers were shaking their heads seeing a white person with a camera, possibly the locals thought that I'm mad and no one even approached me. It is horrific to hear about your experience.

If you find yourself "wrong turned" into any underserved, wrong or "bad" neighborhood, DO NOT PANIC!!! Keep your cool and calmly try to navigate your way out while acting like you have been there before. Incessantly repeating "this is the wrong turn" will hinder your ability to get back on track quickly without incident. In this case, the moment you realized it was a wrong turn, you should have turned around to get back on track.

When I visited Joburg nearly 20 years ago, my guesthouse was in Kempton Park. I wanted to go visit the Carlton Center (Tallest building in Africa at the time) so I took a shared Taxi that dropped me off where the CBD meets Hilbrow. Sure enough, I took a wrong turn after getting out of the taxi, turned North and started walking into Hilbrow. I stepped into a shop and they pointed out the right direction for me. It was a weekend, either Sat or Sun. On my way to the Catlton Center I saw a man sleeping in his taxi (probably passed out drunk) and another man trying to get into his car and the glove compartment in broad daylight with people walking by and standing around. The fact that the thief felt so comfortable was unsettling. It really ruined my perception of Africa. Thankfully, the people of Zim changed it again for the better. It was an interesting dichotomy....SA, wealthy yet dangerous whereas Zim, economically crippled, yet dignified. Anyway, I went to the Carlton Center and on my way walking back, there were 3 men just sitting near some ragged tarps in the middle of the sidewalk. Upon seeing them, I walked qhickly over to the other side of the street and after I passed them I looked back and was shocked to see that they were now following me. I walked as fast as I could a few blocks until I came upon a well trafficked street with lots of shops, etc and just blended in with the mass of people. As an ethnic Pakistani, I stood out, but to my surprise many of the shopkeepers looked similar to me. In Kempton Park, everyone told me to avoid Hillbrow. But Ill tell you, I much preferred the hustle and bustle of Hillbrow to the deserted streets of the CBD. Stay safe out there.

To be honest with you, you didn't actually go to the wrong turn side of Jozi. If you want to see Wrong Turn, go to Wanderers they will show you flames.Where you were it's nothing baba. You just saw those ladies and you thought it's a crime spot. It's not.

I’m literally shaking on your behalf broh🤦🏽♂️ I know exactly how it feels walking around/in those kind of JHB cbd streets. I used to even literally dress down (wear old no name brand clothes and dirty shoes), carry a cheap phone and then stash any money all over myself (some in my socks, very tiny pockets and even in my underwear). As soon as I felt followed I would get into the nearest shop on the street and do some very nervous window shopping until I feel that the coast is clear. Yoh, to date I still fear and respect JHB cbd, even if not on foot and in my car. Rather and prefer Pretoria shem, Hhai kabi.

I've been working at a body shop for a bit now and extra tips I learned was if you're painting the door, it's better to take off the mirror and belt molding (the trim at the bottom of the window) for a better paint job in the end. The mirror can get in the way, and if you're unlucky, the clear coat could stick in that gap between the door and the belt molding.
