It would have been an awkwardly painful and embarrassing moment for a local woman as she struggled to open the boot of a BMW in public.

Woman's awkward car boot struggle

A video of the strange happening is making the rounds on social media after it was posted by an X user @Djandy_kay.

The caption read:

"'Indoda (a man) must have a car.' Buka ke manje (Just look now)."

The one-minute clip shows the girl's car struggle as she relentlessly tries to open the boot and, each time, hits a brick wall over numerous attempts.

The person filming sat in their car across the street from where the bizarre scene played out.

A man can be heard incessantly chuckling with another man in the car with him, passing commentary and poking fun at the woman's predicament.

They are heard saying:

"Vula lapho, vula. Nangu umuntu uthi ufuna ukuthatha ubhakha wakhe ... ayivuleki le boot. Umahluleke la, voesek ke ... Akamuvuleleni ngan'lomjita mfethu?"

From the details in the commentary, one can deduce that the lass was with a male companion in the car, with whom she'd presumably quarrelled, given he was not seen once making an effort to help her.

This was despite the woman pacing between the passenger's side of the car and the boot a few times.
