The driver then begins to reverse out of the area but the wet grass is the only winner as the front-wheel-drive car struggles to make its way out from the lower section. It ends spectacularly with a burst radiator that spews steam and a more damaged car that finds itself back in the drain.

The Polo is one of the best-selling cars in Mzansi, with its manufacturer occupying second spot in March 2022, TimesLive reports.

This is what South Africans said about the Polo driver's incident:

Wayne Obie says:

"That man nailed that 22 point turn… I heard a rumor he is still attempting it at this moment… Although the burst radiator may put a small wrinkle in that plan…"

"Painful!!!"

Drunk man was handed a slap after almost being knocked by spinning BMW 3 Series at Mzansi event

A man was on the receiving end of a slap after he almost walked directly into the firing line of a BMW E30 3 Series while it was spinning at an event, Briefly News reports.

A video circulating on social media shows a man, who seems to be intoxicated, wandering onto the circuit where a spinner is showing off his car control in a BMW E30 3 Series. Fortunately, two marshals at the event reprimand the man for making his way into a dangerous area and give him a slap for good measure.

In a slap reminiscent of the one Oscar's host Chris Rock received from actor Will Smith, a man attending a spinning event in Mzansi got one too.
