I lived in a dense forested and remote mountainous area in South Africa and I always hiked alone, so I would totally disagree. I got lost several times because I never realized that after 4:30 sunlight can no longer penetrate the forest and it gets dark. But that's how you learn. I think that all the years I did rock climbing made me acutely aware of my abilities and limitations, so in the forest I wasn't too reckless in my judgments. My rule of thumb is : never climb up something without a rope that you can't down climb. If I had taken your advice, I'd never honed my skills as a mountain guide...
As an American living here for ten years .... I have said this for 30 years, don't walk alone in the woods. Especially women. ... And even in the USA, better have a gun at least..
My friends brother went missing off table mountain a few years ago, he was never found and he was a very experienced hiker and climber. It's a dangerous place to hike, you can lose your trail quickly, you can lose visibility quickly, and there are plenty of unforgiving drop offs that can break legs or worse. My condolences to all of Brooks family, friends, and colleagues. I am glad for all of you that at least she was found as many people who have gone missing on the mountain, will never be found unfortunately.
I live in Cape Town. This is such a sad tragedy and I pray for her parents, family and friends that they find comfort and solace in this dark time. Table Mountain is an iconic tourist attraction and many people get into trouble there often. It's not always crime related. People also get lost and hike into places where they get stuck, or even have to scramble sheer cliff faces. Either way, this is a tragic end to such a young life. May her soul rest in peace.
Thank you for posting this. Such a tragic end to a young person's life, but we don't know what happened. Hopefully her family finds the strength to get through this
@@acidicsoul4978 Because on any hike it’s well known you’re safer with company. Common sense. Also common sense if in an unfamiliar place you SHOULD do your research first.
Devastating news. People think that Table Mountain is a little hill to walk on. Its a 3400ft mountain with severe drops on many regular trails. NEVER hike alone anywhere
@@mvubu6823 actually, its closer to 5500 ft. But your point remains. Hiking alone is not a wise decision. I crashed while mountain biking alone near Cape Town in a secluded trail. I was lucky to be rescued after a couple hours and ended up in hospital for a week with severe concussion and two broken arms. If no one found me I'd be dead too.
It is so sad. I use to go up Table Mountain and or Lions Head 3x a week. And foreigners do stupid things like wearing flip flops or not taking extra layers of clothes, or taking no water or food with. Hiking on any mountain alone is not wise. I encountered so many of these people...every time I was up the mountain.
This young woman is not stupid, I'd be surprised if she made any kind of stupid mistake. I live in NC. The scholarship that she received to UNC-Chapel Hill is its most prestigious. One has to be superior academically to receive it. That being said, I agree, hiking alone is never a good idea. Never, not anywhere.
Why why why did she go alone?! I am from Cape Town and hiking alone is a no go, for a solo female?! People always get stuck or face accidents on that mountain.
At the start of the Devils Peak Hiking Trail, there is a CLEAR sign that shows "No single persons hiking". Must be three or more people. (In a pictogram). One can also see that sign on Google Earth street view.
People underestimate terrain. It doesn’t matter if she fell or was attacked you are not supposed to hike alone. In this area it is recommended for people to not hike alone. It odd because she was there to teach young men how to have respectful relationships with women, but we as women have to protect ourselves by not going certain places alone. It happens here in the U.S.
Many tourists die on SA mountains alone. They don't enquire from authorities or mountain clubs the does & donts of hiking or climbing here. And never ever anywhere in the world do u go ALONE.
Everyone just blasting SA. What if it was natural? She’s wearing a cast 1:53 So it might not be her first accident. I know it’s not enough to draw a conclusion, but it’s the only real evidence I see. I know many a person who is frequently in a cast. Because although they may be a bit clumsy, they refuse to be sidelined. And she has that confidence written all over her, by the sound of it. If there’s signs of foul play, that’s different, but let’s hear the details before ruining their tourism
@@edjohn4590 that was a calculated risk, though. She was there specifically trying to stem that exact problem. Work like that can’t happen if you have a crippling fear of the ppl you are trying to appeal to. So that risk, that most ppl are suggesting as a push factor, was actually a pull factor to her. And I personally feel she was better equipped to deal with them than the elements
I live 70 miles from UNC at Chapel Hill, in Virginia. It pains my heart to hear this. When you take risky task, such as going hiking in South Africa you put your life in jeopardy. RIP young lady. You had so much to offer.
@@mydogblue1 yup going hiking alone anywhere in the world is dangerous...... Just like sending your kids to school in the USA has become a nightmare ...but you can't stop the kids from going to school.....safety is something that most countries need to work on to protect society...in one way or another....
Was she hiking alone? Table Mountain is so dangerous, the whole country of South Africa is dangerous but criminals have started waiting on the more isolated trails. The violence along with the xenophobia has me planning to move back home, people really need situational awareness as soon as they leave their front door wherever in the world they are.
I believe the airport should have a large sign that says: 'For your safety, please don't hike alone. Always hike in a group. It’s extremely dangerous to hike solo.
I CANNOT UNDERSTAND WHY THE TRAILS DO NOT GET SAFETY ATTENTION. SO MANY INCIDENTS HAPPENED ALREADY. THE GERMAN YOUNG MAN ALSO STILL NOT FOUND. CAPE TOWN IS SO BEAUTIFUL, THESE INCIDENTS IS NOT NECESSARY, IT HAS A VERY BAD INFLUENCE ON OUR COUNTRY. SO SORRY FOR HER FAMILY, SHE WAS STILL SO YOUNG, AND JUST WANTED TO ENJOY OUR COUNTRY. IT IS TIME THAT THESE TRAILS GET PROTECTED, WE ALL WANT TO ENJOY OUR NATURE AND THE BEAUTY OF OUR COUNTRY, WE DO NOT WANT TO SHARE IT WITH BLOODY SCUMBAGS!!!
She clearly was failed by many, starting at an early age: parents, schools, etc., letting her live a woke lifestyle. And the idea of sending this young woman to South Africa to train local men and boys on the dangers of "masculine toxicity" is pure insanity (a fact that this story fails to really report in detail) in the danger that presented. Her team in South Africa should have warned her about going out alone, especially hiking in the middle of nowhere, but they are probably just as clueless as she was. She should have stayed in the USA and studied at the Planetarium. She'd still be alive. And now, it looks like she paid the ultimate price for it.
Reminds me of those two girls from the Netherlands who went missing in Panama about 8 years ago. They went to a country they knew very little about, especially the language and those mountains they decided to climb on their own, without a guide. They were completely clueless to the danger that lurked all around them. Very sad.
So naive to think that she could lecture boys and men in a place where human life is cheap.Remember the guy who insisted on converting that tribe to Christianity who when he didn't get their " get lost message" first time used a more permanent method of making their point when he returned .
I thought it's against the law to hike Table Mountain alone or without a guide. We call her the short girl with a big temper, coupled with the gale force winds over the weekend, it must've been very dangerous. Rest in Peace 🙏🏾 🤍🕯

Sad and tragic, probably could have been avoided had she not hiked alone. Rule number one - don’t hike on your own. May she rest in peace. I’m live in Cape Town
Oh my heart 😢 So sorry to hear about this.. What a beautiful and talented young lady I hope this does not sound totally insensitive or offensive but I am relieved it was an accident So very very tragic nonetheless My heartfelt condolences to family and friends Just a word of friendly advise to hikers Especially in Cape Town the weather can change drastically and dramatically. Never hike alone and try and map out a route that someone knows where you are South Africa is picturesque and breathtaking but the terrain is treacherous Never take a chance RiP angel 🌸
No tinfoil hat here,but why does this guy focus on a young girl meeting young boys and young men when they approach masculinity. And here I always thought exchange and intern students go to places to study and broaden their education,not social life.Hmmmmm. Not sure if she was still also wearing a leg boot and I am sure absolute all around her would have warned her not to go alone.
RIP to the young lady, I enjoy hikes but if its on a tough trial I always go in groups or with another person. Its surprising easy to trip fall and get badly injured. Even in Japan solo hikers have dead for this reason.
It will not surprise me that she was killed, so many people have been attacked on that mountain and thats a fact, i am sure the City of Cape Town will not disclose the truth because this is South Africa and the country needs the dollars.
Yip I concur with your comment... it is the dollar signs... Most tourist deaths are not reported on mainstream news..... hence they arrive unaware of the dangers...MHDSRIP
The cause of her death will be determined by an autopsy. The City of CT will not be able to hide the cause. Table Mountain is not a walk up a path, it is dangerous terrain and the weather can change in an instance.
I hiked solo multiple times, and even climbed the slopes of Table Mountain in Cape Town South Africa in the 1970's. Very dangerous. If you want answers from the South African authorities, don't hold your breath... They are incompetent at best. So sad that this happened. My condolences to the family and friends.
Had a strange dream last night and a brief part in it i was walking past a family of people that were sitting outside next to what persume was their home maybe 30 people of all ages, a couple had dread locks, all white people fair skin blond hair, and they all shared resemblance to this girl. Im sure just a wierd coincidence. They did a wierd subtle side to side head shake kind of like east indians do. They were all smiling even a little one did this slight head shake and i thought it was cute. They said they were like a American indian sounding tribe and were at this place because they were relocated. Seeing this womans photo made me remeber my dream from last night. Been having strange dreams lately.
Why u so call smart people, keep going to the other country and getting killed,is this education that important to lose your life,u people think American in all around the world, take it from s stupid person like me, it's not
Table Mountain. I got it. Enough. Apparently, there is a deficit of natural features in SA. Had that not been the case, there would have been more discussion surrounding the statement alluding to the missionary's purpose in SA, and I paraphrase: Coaching boys on proper masculinity. Once again, I paraphrased, but did the gentleman actually say something of the sort?? That, in my opinion, is a matter worthy of discussion, considering the audacity implied by someone of that age.
I dont believe in these "natural hiking falling from a mountain storys", sorry, especially with womans. Seems like she went alone but that is also an indicator that she was probably even more careful, so for me its always sussy. And i hiked the TM by myself and its not a big deal how can you fall from a cliff.
Very sad news. As a South African I have unfortunately decided to stop hiking anywhere, especially Table Mountain and Lions Head. Tourists must be informed that visiting South Africa is a safety gamble.
Firstly as per our news in SA she went alone hiking and it looks like she might have fallen. A huge tragedy and my condolences to her friends and family. 🤍 South africa like many other countries in this world has safe areas and unsafe areas .. We have thousands and thousands of tourists who have had wonderful holidays in our country. Crime is happening worldwide including the USA. I wont go into details either. We had huge search parties on the mountain looking for her including helicopters.....hoping she would be found safely😢......
That's absolutely insane that anyone would go hiking alone anywhere in the world for this very reason. So sad. And it looks like she had a cast on her foot as well? Just madness
@@jumpscare1530the cast had recently come off. Many visitors get stuck, or fall off our mountains - Table Mountain, Lion's Head, or Devil's Peak, where she was hiking. It's so sad.
SA is not a safe place. It is very dangerous. First timers and naive tourists are big losers here. Rather visit other countries. See SA on the tube rather. Its not eorth your life. RIP, sincere condolences to family and friends
Colonials did not create the black mind and their culture. They are not in control of their abilities or lack of it. After 30 years of black rule and having everything available, even university degrees to their names, they still have no clue.
What are they doing in foreign countries? They go missing & killed to many times in these countries! My deepest condolences to her family 🖤🖤🖤R.I.P 🙏🏻🇺🇸♥️🤍💙
South African here. You never hike alone in South Africa. Never.
I lived in a dense forested and remote mountainous area in South Africa and I always hiked alone, so I would totally disagree. I got lost several times because I never realized that after 4:30 sunlight can no longer penetrate the forest and it gets dark. But that's how you learn.

Where in the world is it a good place to hike a mountain on your own?
Especially not while studying, as the video caption suggests.
@@dubsounds Exactly, right. Nobody should ever hike and study at the same time. I mean, go figure. Sad story though, that's the truth.

A hiker recently died while hiking on lions head too so yes never ever hike alone.. it’s dangerous terrain especially when hiking down
Every year people die on that mountain...it looks safe because it's so close to an urban area but it still a mountain and it catches you out.
South Africans hike in groups. Maybe in the US its 100% safe to hike alone.
No no even the US has the dangerous Homo Sapiens and dangerous terrains that you're not supposed to hike or walk alone.

Don't bluff yourself .SA is crime ridden.Nowhere is safe !!
That's absolutely insane that anyone would go hiking alone anywhere in the world for this very reason. So sad. And it looks like she had a cast on her foot as well? Just madness
@@jumpscare1530the cast had recently come off. Many visitors get stuck, or fall off our mountains - Table Mountain, Lion's Head, or Devil's Peak, where she was hiking. It's so sad.
You live in an absolute dream world about safety in SA. We know the figures, they're horrendous
@@really.unlikely Again, there are safe places and unsafe places. Just like anywhere else in the world. It's not rocket science
SA is not a safe place. It is very dangerous. First timers and naive tourists are big losers here. Rather visit other countries. See SA on the tube rather. Its not eorth your life.
RIP, sincere condolences to family and friends
MHDDSRIP 🙏❤🥀
Look to Apartheid and colonisation for all your answers.
Least we were safe.
We didn't even know what rape was 🤷🏻
Colonials did not create the black mind and their culture. They are not in control of their abilities or lack of it. After 30 years of black rule and having everything available, even university degrees to their names, they still have no clue.
@@nathanagnew9167 there were very little crime until the ANC started causing uproar, killing their own and blaming the colonials for it.
@@lizma1956Evil person.
What are they doing in foreign countries? They go missing & killed to many times in these countries! My deepest condolences to her family 🖤🖤🖤R.I.P 🙏🏻🇺🇸♥️🤍💙
