The poor guy got a messily R1.50 for two years of saving these can tabs. Take a look:
People were shocked to see how little the man got and that he actually accepted it. Some dropped what they normally get, be it true or not.
Read some of the comments:
Sthembiso_Nojila shared a tip:
“In 2010, I made an elephant sculpture with just 3 2L bottles of those caps. It was bought by German tourist under 4k. ”
Tumi_flames was shook:
“And you took it?”
Zennande Zee Tshabalala could not deal:
“Aibo, I don't mean to laugh”
Makes knows a thing:
“You are supposed to take it to the Coke factory where they pay you R1500 per 2lt bottle.”
TshepoM was finished:
“If I never died of laughter today, I'll never die again ”
Man builds helicopter from scrap metal
Briefly News reported that a Mzansi man showed off his passion project he's been working on for some time. The man created his version of a miniature South African Police Service (SAPS).
In the video posted by @godwillgodwill, the man can be seen installing the helicopter blades onto the rotor mast in the scorching sun.
The guy shooting the TikTok video said the plan is to launch it into the air to test whether his work has paid off once it's completed.
