Loadshedding is the pits! However, you can be thankful that you were not high up in the sky on a scary ride at Gold Reef City when Eskom decided to cut the power, lol.

One of the best things about the Mzansi people is their ability to turn any grim situation into a laugh. This video had people busting, and nothing was more proudly SA in the moment, not even the loadshedding.

Widely followed Twitter page @kulanicool shared the hilarious clip showing people stuck on a terrifying ride during loadshedding. A man saw this and decided to record it while commenting on the situation.

“Eskom did the things ”

The people of Mzansi wipe tears of laughter before commenting on the clip

While we are sure people’s reactions would have been different if they were the ones stuck in the hot seat, most people couldn’t help but laugh at the situation. The cameraman made it difficult to keep a straight face.

Take a look at some of the funny comments:

@Syzalouw said:

“I was here earlier this month and we got stuck on the tower of terror for like 20 minutes ♂️.”

@MechIndustries said:

“Shouldn’t such places be closed to the public? They consume a lot of electricity and I wonder the kind of generators they would need to keep safe operation.”

Crying student let Eskom know his laptop only work when plugged in, other people related to the struggle

In related news, Briefly News reported that with loadsheding having been ramped up to stage six, people are suffering. One young Mzansi man let the higher powers of Eskom know that not all laptops work without power, and his struggle resonated with many.

Stage six loadshedding has some Mzansi citizens sitting without power for more than 10 hours a day… and that is not to mention the endless problems that follow, like internet issues.

TikTok user Gift Kelton Bozekana recorded a funny but real clip in which he let Eskom know that his laptop only works when there is electricity. He explained it as being “like a fridge.” Not everyone is fortunate enough to have a laptop that’s battery actually works.
