There are numerous attraction sites like Table Mountain and the harbour, which always excite local and internet visitors. The nature of the area is always calm and quiet.

A group of students who wanted to celebrate the end of their exam season and finish off the second term of the year made plans to visit the shopping centre. Other visitors were outraged by the large number of teens racing in the passageway, creating a chaotic scene.

Most people were so amazed that they filmed the horrific scenes and posted them online. Two girls had a fight while the rest continued to cause disruption.

South Africans were not happy with the teens’ behaviour and shamed them on numerous videos in the comments section. People worried about what the youngsters would do next since the schools aren’t even closed yet.
