Focalistic comparisons surface

Not everyone was convinced that Ghost Hlubi deserved the heat, though. @TshegoF68313 pointed out a double standard in the response, writing:

"Focalistic also did the same thing, but everyone is quiet. 😂😂 But for Ghost Hlubi it's dangerous. 😭😂"

The comparison to Focalistic added another layer to the conversation, with some netizens weighing in on whether the backlash was fair or fuelled by something beyond the stunt itself. Ghost Hlubi has not publicly responded to the stir caused by the clip.

Was Ghost Hlubi's stunt dangerous?

The video shows Hlubi in full swing, leaning out of the van's open door as it moves at speed, in what many felt was a reckless move on a public road. The clip sparked immediate reactions from netizens, ranging from genuine worry to flat-out humour.

@BosepeNgeke raised alarm, writing:

"If not AI, this is dangerous af."

@imheaven_sent was both baffled and amused, saying:

"He doesn't believe that he actually really fell off this time around, like seriously motionless. 😭😂"
