Joke Book
SPRINGBOK wing Cheslin Kolbe became the center of attention in a humorous video uploaded by his captain Siya Kolisi in London, which has garnered over two million views on Instagram.
As Kolisi strolled through the city’s skyscrapers, he made sure to highlight the impressive architecture, before introducing his towering teammates Eben Etzebeth, RG Snyman, and Lood de Jager.
If Kolisi ever considers a career change after rugby, his comedic talent was clear from his witty commentary.
With laughter in the air, Kolisi pointed out, “We’ve got another tower,” while the four hefty athletes walked along the streets.
“Here we have four men, well, I’m a handsome man,” he quipped, turning to Kolbe and adding, “and then there’s the other half.”
More laughter erupted from Kolisi, and Kolbe couldn’t help but appreciate his captain’s jokes.
Wanting to join in, Snyman shared four Instagram images from their time with the team. Kolbe is visible in each shot, but only his head appears.
Captioning the photos, “Photo album from tour,” Snyman let the visuals speak for themselves, creating another humorous moment reminiscent of Kolisi’s video. Kolbe also reposted the same four images on his own Instagram.
It’s notable that Kolbe stands at about 1.72m, which isn’t particularly short, but in comparison to many of his Springbok teammates, he does seem somewhat petite.
