So earlier this week South Africa took a major "L"!
During Nelson Mandela's public tribute and ceremony earlier this week, a man believed to be an interpreter for the deaf, fooled thousands in attendance and around the world as watching from their television. A random man somehow got himself on stage, as many different politicians and close relatives to Nelson Mandela spoke, and pretended to interpret the different speakers words through fake sign language.
At one point during the airing a mini video playing on the side of the screen showed a legitimate interpreter properly signing during the speakers. As it has still not been determined how this random man managed to get past various security at this event, this writer can't help but wonder, "How funny is this going to be in this weeks episode of Saturday Night Live?" All that being said it's extremely disrespectful to the memory of Nelson Mandela as well as to deaf persons around the world.
All that being said here's the ridiculous video of the fake interpreter during the service.
Holla!
