Siya Kolisi reminded everyone why he’s South Africa’s golden boy: funny, friendly, and always ready for a vibe.

The clip, posted on TikTok by @sharksrugby, racked up huge numbers as fans cracked up and expressed their love for the Bok skipper's playful personality.

Siya's sweet surprise goes viral

The moment happened just as Siya was heading off and walking into the tunnel. A lady cheekily asked him to pick a hand, the fun game most South Africans know well. One hand was empty, but the other had a sweet, specifically a blackcurrant-flavoured one. As soon as Siya saw the label, he hit it off.

With zero hesitation, he broke into the throwback hit "Current" by Mandla Spikiri, belting out lyrics and busting out dance moves that took fans way back. He even asked the lady if she knew the song, laughing and jiving while showing off those classic steps. The clip ended with him still humming as he strolled away.

Others wondered if he ever gets serious or angry, saying they still wouldn't take him seriously
