Apartheid ended 30 years a go, its no excuse anymore. Bheki Cele, the police minister is to blame alongside the ANC government.
Way less crime during apartheid. Many want it back including the coloureds .
Was there way less or was it relatively more confined to certain localities from which it wasn’t reported?
30 years wasn’t that long ago.. the effects of events like that don’t just disappear over night.
@@mjb6839 seriously… people are idiots
107 cops killed in 1 year has nothing to do with past history mate. It’s fugging culture ..
I live in Cape Town. 80 murders per day. I have been a victim of crime a few times. You get robbed on the trains too. I never go out anymore.
Who's doing the murders white people or black people
80 murders per day is impossible, that means close to 30 000 murders a year in a single city
@@Cornerkid82 80 murders per day in the entire South Africa.
@@zuleigahanslip7689 the way you phrased it, you made it seem it was only in Cape town
I was warned never to get on the trains in Cape Town.
If you think Capetown is bad you should do a video on Johannesburg..
If you think Johannesburg is bad you should do a video on Tijuana.
@@bob-zi1eb😂
@@niomisingh8871 I giggled at all three, responses🤭.
Johannesburg has way less murders than Cape Town but more robberies.
I agree it is a match for CT
Went from 500 murders nation wide per year to 3,000 a year in just one city. Wouldn't blame the past for what's happening now. That's just scape goating
As if the Apartheid government counted the many blacks(terrorists) it killed. Whether by hanging, assassinations or the many excursions in the townships. Not to mention how they armed the IFP...
Sad. Prayers. Jesus have mercy.
The past has a lot to do with it. You can’t just look at present only and pretend the majority haven’t been handicapped generationally by apartheid.
@thelionofjudah007 it's been long enough. Yes, you can. Making excuses is the way of the weak minded. If you don't start now, you will never break the culture of victimhood
@@nobody687 I was waiting for you to mention the word ‘victimhood’, it’s what every colonisers and victimisers say. Yes the Black South Africans were victimised. You whiteys don’t like the past to be mentioned unless it’s about you. It’s no coincident that the minority still hold the economic power even up till today. This the only mistake Mandela made - he got political power but fail to get economical power.
The problem we face in South Africa is that criminals have more rights than civilians. And even when you defend yourself you as the victim can be convicted
It's similar in the U.S and Canada.
‘Victims’ wrongs’, you might say!
@talon1706 not really in US it's similar jn Australia
What are you talking about.?! If it’s a legal shooting you can’t be prosecuted for anything.. the FCA is very clear on what’s required for lethal force to be justified.. if you are being prosecuted then you did something wrong, and that will happen to anyone in any part of the world..
@@michaeldewing1904 in South Africa you need to be very specific with the term legal.
Your'e a British national, you don't really comprehend the history of this country, to say this chaos is the 'legacy' of apartheid is quit the opposite of the truth! Apartheid kept this chaos at bay! There was law and order during the apartheid era, the cities were clean and things worked!
The same lies are told about white Americans in the south. Look at blacks now and tell me they just suddenly got this violent.
They’ve always been like this.
He's Irish actually!!!! 😳🥺
This video was filmed in 2008. Its unfortunately a lot worse now.
Thanks, I thought so, by the video quality.
1000 times worse in 2024
Wow that’s insane
Is it still a tourist attraction? I find it hard to believe anybody would want to go there if there’s multiple people dying every day?
Yeah lol I was just wondering, looks like it came out in apartheid.
I absolutely hate it when everything is bcoz of apartheid! I’m an expat I left to get away from the crime too many things happened to me and my family including the death of my one sister I lived in constant fear! Things got bad bcoz the current leaders are corrupt and rob all government run business that in turn makes the criminals think they can also do it, especially when one of the leaders told people to just take what they want, but with violence! It took me a good 10 years before I could relax I’ve been in the UK for 20 years and still wake up by the slightest noises! It’s not the UK fault it’s the legacy from living in South Africa once the ANC got power!
Ah so before the anc, life must have been great for you guys yes ?😂😂😂
Funny how when you were in a apartheid regime you were good but when that finished you ran away
@@shsh-he5qg yes I did so that my children and I were safe! You have no knowledge of what we went through because of the crime so I suggest you keep your sarcasm to yourself!
@@sff3658 Compared to Mexico. Crime in South Africa is not that bad.
You're right, Mexico is a shithole now.@@bob-zi1eb

I know a guy who was carjacked in the airport. He hadn't been in the country more than 15 minutes. The car rental people shrugged their shoulders and handed him another car.
Ahahahha no way
My daughter, her grandmother and two others got robbed at knifepoint in houtbay cemetery yesterday. My sis and her husband smash and grab near tableview Dunoon side. It's not safe anymore
How terrifying...my brother and sister-in-law were recently attacked on a farm as I was before I came to the UK 20 years ago. There's no explaining that to anyone and if you're white it's met with a you-got-what-you-deserved from 99.9% of brits.
The propaganda is incredible.
I hope your family are getting counselling of some sort❤️
@@jen8063 And our corrupt media has told no-one about the 40,000 murdered white farmers.
I am from Cape Town and this video was made many years ago.
I'm quite surprised at the level of disinformation in this documentary. Some of the information is relevant, but most is distorted, which makes me wonder how many videos on this holds any once of water.
Whats the situasie now? I want to visit.
Same thoughts. There’s even electricity which is quite rare with all the loadshedding
@@MorrissDeroos it's the best city for tourists
I'm watching this now and kept increasing my resolution. I wondered why everyone they interviewed looked "dated". So it is incredibly misleading.
I am from South Africa, I can tell you that there are many beautiful, wonderful parts of the country. but currently what is happening in this documentary is real. Definitely too frightening for many lifelong residents to go near.I only go there if I don't have a choice.
Compared to Mexico I think the crime in South Africa is overrated. In towns like Tijuna multiple beheaded bodies including murdered police officers are dumped in the street on a regular basis.
What a comment dude @@bob-zi1eb what does this have to do with mexico, its about south africa
@@TheTrillionDollarTradeMovie The commentator said that Cape Town was the most dangerous city in the world. The world rating placed Mexico first.
@@Mathilda5xp I see, thanks. Yet, Im pretty sure the channel knew what he was talking about though. Very sad for the rainbow nation.
MaY I ask, do you agree with his statement that todays culture of violence is purely down to apartheid of 40 years ago.??
Personally, I would call it BS.. but Im not from SA
If i had to speak the truth here i would get kicked off TH-cam. ....
We all know the truth.
I say it.
I’m not from SA. What is the “truth”?
The locals have gone native, that is the truth that the rest of the World doesn't want to know.
@@robinwalton-gm5ms my surname is also Walton .... just saw your surname and had to comment on it
Exactly. It's a ...... one particular colour problem.....
And another thing is it's time for Africa to take a long look at their own cultures and make a decision to stop blaming the past or other cultures and to look at how their own cultures are failing to support ordinary citizens who deserve better. Most politicians and leaders in Africa use their position to enrich themselves with the result that the lives of ordinary citizens are considered cheap and pointless. Africa needs to get its act together and stop waiting for some other culture to sort it out for them. Africa needs to sort out Africa and Africans .
Black run cities in the US need to so the same thing.
Africa is cursed
You mean stop blaming the "500 years "of been controlled like dogs by racist...can't be compared with 27 years of democracy...on ontop of that these racist still own 90% of S.A worth on theirs hands
The high level of crime in South Africa is not a RESULT of apartheid... Apartheid was an attempt to stop this level of crime from taking over South Africa....
Rubbish! District 6 was one of the safest places, until the Apartheid Government dumped people of colour in those horrible Townships, after they were forcefully removed from their safe homes.
Try and explain that to the political do gooders...
Lies! You should do your research to find out how people of colour were moved out of District 6 by the Apartheid Government!. I can assure you, that you will cry for days on end.
Exactly why neither party is better between the discriminatory one and this corrupt one. Both epic fails.
@@dikeledimothiba65 Exactly my friend. We are totally screwed... ALL politicians are evil, corrupt, stupid, lazy, arrogant and greedy...
I lived in Cape Town for over a decade. Beautiful city and I am grateful not to have been a victim of crime....but many people were affect. Always lived in fear. Something needs to be done. With real leadership, it can change.
GAYTON MCKENZIE IS THE NAN TO STOP IT
What a pity. Cape Town is breathtaking.
Thank you ANC
You use the word "black" very loosely. According to current South African legislation, most people in the Cape flats are classified in a minority group and discrimination is mandated against them by a plethora of racist laws. Not as badly as against white South Africans, but still. The ANC vowed to end Apartheid and transform the country, but instead they transformed Apartheid and ended the country.
White South Africans are discriminated against? Can you elaborate on that please.
@@bob-zi1eb I can't give you an exhaustive list, because there are dozens of racist laws at present in South Africa. Far more than under Apartheid. The laws divide South Africans into a number of racial groups, namely "black" (the bantu majority), "couloured" (first nations and mixed raced individuals, people of Asian descent and "white" people. The laws favour the majority and disadvantages minorities when it comes to getting jobs in the public sector, the private sector. Minorities also are disadvantaged when tendering for government contracts and in some cases are disqualified outright. Water licences also have to be allocated in a discriminatory way. There are many many more. If you google it, you should be able to find an exhaustive list quite easily.
@@bob-zi1eb I will love to elaborate on that. How about racist water license allocations being imposed on white-owned farms. If you do not hand over 51% or more of your farm to a black South African, you lose your rights to a water license. Note that this impacts the entire country's food security.
The ANC government have bought over 6072 productive farms since 2009 in their Proactive Land Acquisition Scheme in which these farms, bought from white farmers at below market prices, were to be leased to black farmers who were to be trained by the Department of Agriculture. Today 43% of these farms are found in some degree of degradation, while 7% are completely fallow. 53% show signs of overgrazing and soil erosion. The Department's agricultural colleges are underfunded, equipment is broken and outdated, the animals in their care malnourished and graduates remain unemployable.
That is just one example of what white South Africans face.

@@zeddyteddy3729 Stop over exaggerating. Move to Mexico. Cartels grab their rivals off the street and then cut their faces off. It sounds ridiculous but it is really happening there. There is a famous video of a young cartel hit woman slowly decapitating a los zetas member with a machete. It's a level of violence that no one other than ISIS comes close to.
Crime in south africa is really bad. Compared to what's occurring in Mexico it's a picnic. Stop being snowflakes.

I live in omagh from South Africa 😂
It's difficult to believe that anyone from the UK can be quite as innocent as this man. We used to live in Durban and moved to England in 2018. How it has changed! Within a month the shop at road level had been robbed at night by men carrying AK47s, in our very building! In a small town/big village. The UK has drug issues, loads of knife crime and a thriving black market. Rough sleepers are everywhere in the cities and tons of illegal immigrants arrive from France in good weather.
Yes, I agree, but you can't argue with statistical figures, it's still much much safer in the UK. We travel to Cape Town every year and love it, but as a Brit would I move there, yes, if I had a gated home on a gated estate with Security. See the difference. Power, crime, political instability, corruption, I hate what has happened to my Favourite City/Country in the world.

@latrinemarine826 Ghanaians are very nice and calm people. You try and come and visit Ghana 🇬🇭 someday . You will love it.
The rot starts at the top.
I lived in Cape Town from 1979 till 1991. In 1981 I lived in Claremont (the Southern Suburbs which was English speaking) and slept with my ground floor window open. Imagine that!
We lived in Stanley Rd near villages ruby ground until 1980 when our family left, some of the best days with great friends I'm just sad about everything that has happened over there❤️ from a fellow ex Claremontonian
Was The Group Areas Act in place then?
@@Mo-yd8xc There were no black or coloured people living in the Southern Suburbs at that time (as far as I am aware). There were designated areas for black people and coloured people in the townships, e.g. Langa, Guguletu, Kayalitsha, Crossroads, Atlanta and Grassy Park. Sadly, it was during that time that the government forcibly removed all black and coloured people out of District Six which was adjacent to the city and where all races coexisted quite happily. District Six was then turned into a low cost housing white area. To buy a house one needed a deposit of only three thousand rand. I refused to participate in the scheme. They moved all the District Six inhabitants to Atlanta (Cape Flats) where there is nothing but sand and today Atlanta is the most dangerous place to live in the Cape Town area. I went to all the places I have mentioned and they were appalling, impoverished; you could see the despair on people's faces. It was very shocking.
I want to move to Cape Town is it better now?😅
@@Real.Adonis The murder rate in Cape Town has made South Africa the murder capitol of the world. There are grave shortages of electricity which means traffic lights stop working, your home is in darkness for long periods, businesses cannot operate smoothly and there is inflation. Before you go and live anywhere do your homework - find out as much as you can about the place. I won't be going back for any reason you can give me and my two adult sons don't want to go back either. They grew up there.
@RealStories I love real crime documentaries! Your channel is fantastic. I have liked and subscribed! Keep going with the killer pro content!
still blaming apartheid after 30 years!
Bring back the Death Penalty in South Africa *NOW!*
That is what one of our greatest athletes - Oscar Pistorius also said. Until he killed his own girlfriend and ended behind bars for years. If the death penalty was still in tact, he would have been sent to death.
So be careful what you say
You know the Uk must really be a crap hole if all their citizens all moving to South Africa and America as an upgrade and as expats. Insanity
@robg1358 And they immigrate in large numbers to New Zealand too, but this guy never does Real crime documentaries on the UK. Cape Town is not as dangerous as he makes it out to be. Crime is only rife in certain suburbs. It would be much wiser if he mentions those suburbs to make the visitors and citizens aware of how dangerous those area are.
Psychopath
No matter what weapon,a rock,a gun,a sword or a stick Humans have always hurt one another..
Certain humans cause more violence.
When was this filmed? It looks so dated.
I remember watching it on UK Chanel 4 about 20 years ago
Yeah it’s really old.. those salt and pepper shakers were demolished years ago, and suburban guns doesn’t look anything like that anymore..
It's a shame that these programme makers think it's good to drown out the dialogue with loud noise.
That fog dispersion unit needs to be implemented in every store in the US!!!! I think claymores would be better for anti-theft, but I bet that'd be frowned upon.
It will probably damage your store as well.
To the ANC(SA government), whatever you do, don’t take responsibility for your actions, blame it on Apartheid which ended over 30 years ago.
+500 years of oppression won't be undone in 30 years
Is blaming it on a political party that different?
Abhorrent and Shocking - The Root of South Africa's Problem
You don't get bad children, you get bad parents - let me state:
South Africa's root of the problem is the consultation of the demonic realm commonly referred to as the ancestors and this demonic consultation takes place from the top level of our national government and down.
Which means ...just who is guiding our nation and the inevitable deep pit we find ourselves in?
Great to see the ANC have developed the country so well! wait till melema gets to be president.....you ain't seen nothing yet
very impressive and instructive footage.
Brilliant documentary
I’m from Cape Town and I love the place and the people. The government let the citizens of South Africa down.
Time to vote them out next month!
It’s not just the government.
😂😂talks about the “most feared crime boss in the city” next minute the “most feared crime boss in the city” is gunned down 😂😂 THANX CAPETOWN❤❤❤❤
great job. Its so sad
Nelson Mandela should be thanked for this. He promised equality a better living standards.. he delivered nothing. The slums still exist
@@jen8063 what happens?
He created them
Just leave bro you don't need that in your life
Politicians, power hungry rats
It's no wonder why the Western Cape wants to break away from the rest of South Africa. Maybe being their own country (or with more governing authority at least) they can finally do something about crime. Something that I don't think will happen under the current South African government.
The average indigenous Black South African doesn’t want to break away. South Africa is one nation just like Africa is one nation amidst the Berlin Conference borders.
I live in Cape town, I carry a dummy phone and fake notes just to hand to the robbers.
Worked twice before when getting a gun put to my head.
❤ 🇿🇦
I'm from the Cape Flats this video is very old ,crime has quadrupled since then
I like how the grannies hit that accelerator 30:46
😂 the culture there is “if it doesn’t spin, I won’t buy it” They also prefer manual gearbox cars than automatic cars
Well done, you did an entire documentary on Cape Town without using the word “coloured”.
The crazy thing is I came from watching a video of Orania into this video.. what a difference.
Grew up there. Man , that was really living. Apparently it took apartheid to make it safe.
Wouldn't move back there if you paid me.
The Mother thought that was her only option. So tragic. I know the pressure family member can put on you to get their fix. I hope I would not do what the mum did , but in self defense emergency situation, well

That makes for a great Hollywood movie...It is so good that even Hollywood does not come close...the police sirens do make for a dramatic effect. Well produced movie. You should do one highlighting the rampant pickpocketing, random stabbings and out of control gangs in Europe.

Huge inequality? No other country in Africa has crime rates as high as SA’s
@@wandredemendonca9482 Oh, look! A parrot parroting what it's been brainwashed to Parrot! How about that.
My late mother in law got pistol whipped (needed stitches) and my brother in law had a gun against his head in their living room (Johannesburg). She had Parkinson's and couldn't even stand up off the couch by herself back then. They stole a TV screen and a button cellphone. This was behind a 2 meter motor gate and a security gate (no challenge for a pick axe). Glad to have left South Africa and would die rather than go back.
Number one and two cities with highest murder rates, are in South Africa? ANC, is in charge, so who's responsible?
It’s NOT easy to buy a gun LEGALLY in SA. Citizens have to jump through many hoops and usually get turned down. You not allowed to use self defence as a motivation to own a gun.
This is false information. Every South African citizen is lawfully permitted to apply for a section 13 self-defence firearm licence. The legal requirements for application and ownership are stringent, and rightfully so, but not beyond the grasp of ordinary law-abiding people. Most licences do in fact get approved, if the requirements are met, within 3-4 months. Once your licence is approved, you may collect your firearm from your local gunshop. The onus is then on the lawfully licenced owner to get as much training as possible, to be a safe and responsible firearm owner.
My brother in law passed his gun competency test and then applied for a gun lisence. He has no criminal past, no mental issues, his neighbours were happy to sign affidavits of approval and still he got turned down. Twice. The police told him he cannot use the motive “self defence” as a reason on his form to own a gun. I guess as usual, it’s Different strokes for different folks. He had to sell his gun which the gun shop had in safe keeping for him until he got a lisence
I lived in JHB and moved back go to Cape Town because of the crime in JHB and Pretoia and else where.
I'm born and bread in South Africa.... At 44 years I have lived in all 3 main provinces and seen so much abomination and evil I dare not say here. It's been such along time since apartheid so hearing that word makes sore from the sheer sillyness and rather yawn. However we choose to stay here and always expect the unexpected and pack hard arms in order to protect family and friends. Otherwise it's absolutely beautiful 😊
South Africa has become a slaughterhouse of humans, with 75 people killed every day - the 2nd highest murder rate in the world. The chance to be murdered in South Africa is 4-5% for every individual living here. Only 14% of murder cases are solved. Organised crime is on the rise with almost zero consequence for violent offences. The South African Police is the single biggest source of firearms in the country- whether being stolen from, firearms being lost or provided by the SAP. Life is cheap in South Africa and crime is easy.
Basically the future of London 😃
100%😂😂😂
Id suspect some hard cores even own some of those security companys lol. Its perfect !
27:50 that cut to him sitting on top of the playground was so unserious💀 why did he do that 😭
Maybe to highlight the fact that there are little ones born and growing up amid the violence and crime. A subtle hint. I found it forceful.

When you have a large gab between the haves and the have not,add drugs, alcohol and slow service delivery to the have not them you get Cape Town
So typical that apartheid still considered to be the cause of crime in RSA. It’s nearly 3 decades since apartheid ended. Now worse than ever. Violence and corruption had been Africa’s problem for centuries. So I left this dump for the better.

It’s actually very difficult to get a weapons license in SA, despite the fact as a private citizen you need one for your own safety, and that of your family
The documentary is spot on about crime and many social ills, but it never addresses the fact that all these are a result of the problem, inequality and poverty are as vivid as a white cat in a burnt corn field.
The POOR can't sleep coz they're hungry and under depression & the HAVEs can't sleep coz the POOR are AWAKE
SPOT ON
I don't care how old this documentary is. This is the real deal in Cape Town.
