Viral video shows the terrifying moment an e-hail driver in Cape Town, South Africa barely walked away with his life after being robbed blind by a group of young men who invaded his car and took everything they could get their hands on.
In the clip taken by the victim’s dash cam, the driver had just parked his car when two young men barged into the rear and front passenger side doors, both brandishing knives. They instantly start going through the car for anything of value, demanding the driver turn over what he’s got. The terrified victim continues to repeat that the men can take whatever they want, even as two more thugs enter on the driver’s side door.

“You wanna f***ing die?” one of the men asks the victim, even as the poor man insists he doesn’t have anything of value in the trunk of the car.

After a few moments, the four thieves make off with the man’s phone, speed point machine and cash - but not before one of them inexplicably shakes the victim’s hand before exiting the car.
“Muslim?” The young man asks the victim as he gets out of the car. When the man says, “yes,” the thief briefly shakes his hand and says “Salaam.”
Which makes it all better, I guess?
The thieves have yet to be apprehended, despite their faces all having been caught on camera in plain sight.
