American actor Will Smith has assisted American YouTuber Salah Brooks who recently had her skydiving equipment stolen during her trip to Cape Town.
SALAH BROOKS: ‘GETTING ROBBED WAS NOT ON MY END OF YEAR BINGO CARD’
YouTuber Salah Books revealed she was robbed while in Cape Town, South Africa. She explained that her bags were taken and inside was her ski diving equipment worth around $10 000 (R164 224).
“Hi I’m Salah and I just got robbed in Cape Town and these are my immediate notes. Don’t leave your car unlocked, not sure if it was,” she said.
“My friends and I hopped out for a coffee, five minutes later we were back in the car. Drove an hour, opened up the back, the bags were gone. Those bags were completely useless to anyone who is not a sky dive. It is a $10 000 (R164 224) sky dive set up and it’s gone, and there is nothing I can do about it,” she continued.
She also revealed that her card, license and other personal belongings were also taken. However, she expressed that she still loves Cape Town and is not ready to leave yet.
“All replaceable items, no sense in mourning it, no sense in leaving… I love this place. I’ve been here for 30 days and I was just thinking this morning nobody even makes it this long without something happening at least. Again, nice reminder that I am not invincible,” she added.
“Getting robbed was not on my end of year bingo card,” she captioned the video.

WILL SMITH HELPS YOUTUBER
Salah later revealed that Men in Black star Will Smith had seen the video and replaced hers and her friend’s sky diving gear. She revealed that it was thousands of dollars worth of gear. Salah expressed that she couldn’t believe it was true until the money hit her back account. Take a look…
