During the week South Africans were shocked at the racist comment made by a man known as Adam Catzavelose.
In the video, Johannesburg businessman Adam Catzavelose is seen publicly boasting about enjoying his vacation at an undisclosed beach outside of the country. His boast turned sour when he also mentioned that there wasn't a single black person in sight.
The video went viral immediately, sending the rest of South Africa into a rage of anger on social media.
However, comedians such as the likes of Tats Nkonzo, David Kau and Trevor Gumbi took it upon themselves to change a negative situation into a positive one as they introduced the #AdamCatzavelosChallenge where they imitated Catzavelose video but added a positive and humorous twist to it.
