Back in January of this year, the talented South African music producer and DJ, Black Coffee, was involved in a serious travel accident while on a flight to his show in Mar Del Plata. The incident left him with some injuries, as he shared in a statement on his social media.

Black Coffee opened up about the accident for the first time during an interview on My Top 10 at 10 with Tbose. Recounting the terrifying moments, he shared, “I literally saw my life flashing; that was the most painful thing about the accident,” he told Tbose. “It wasn’t so quick, and I woke up in the hospital. It happened for like a minute, giving me time to think. I had time to pray while it was happening.”

The incident occurred during his tour of South America. Due to unforeseen circumstances, he had to change airlines for this specific trip. “It looked old, like no one had been using it. I felt uneasy,” Black Coffee explained.

Describing the moment of the accident, he said, “The plane was cruising, and I was listening to a gospel album. I reclined my seat, took a nap, and then I woke up to the plane shaking violently. I opened my eyes, and everyone was trying to hold on,” he recalls the horrific incident.

“It was moving so violently that I fell on the floor. There was a gospel song playing on my headphones, repeating Hallelujah. It felt like I had these angels singing to save me at that moment. I was on the floor, got up, and sat on the chair, trying to hold on. The plane just dipped so fast, and I hit the ceiling with my head, and I was unconscious for a couple of seconds. Shortly after, I was on the floor again, and it was simmering down. The plane inside was so destroyed—still flying—the oxygen masks were rolling.”

The pilot made an emergency landing in Uruguay, where Black Coffee underwent a 5-hour surgery to repair his upper spinal cord, which was damaged in the incident.

Showmax have announced a gripping four-part series on the criminal spree of South Africa’s most brazen convict, Thabo Bester, and his reported girlfriend, Nandipha Magudumana.

The couple are currently awaiting their pre-trial in the Free State Court. Along with seven others, the duo are facing charges of assisting Bester’s prison escape, fraud, corruption, and violating multiple bodies.

SHOWMAX’S TRACKING THABO BESTER: ALL THE DETAILS
Tracking Thabo Bester will be screened in two parts on 15 March and 22 March on streaming service Showmax. The series was produced by IdeaCandy, who also helmed Devilsdorp and Rosemary’s Hitlist

The four-part true-crime documentary will document the shocking news that the convicted murderer and rapist did not burn to death in his Mangaung prison cell. Instead, he was seen shopping alongside Nandipha Magudumana at Woolworths in Sandton City.

According to Showmax, the first episode follows GroundUp journalists Marecia Damons and Daniel Steyn as they investigate an anonymous tip-off. The duo co-wrote the bestselling book The Thabo Bester Story: The Facebook Rapist, the Celebrity Doctor, and the Escape from Cell 35.

Subsequent episodes look at why Bester was called the Facebook rapist and in jail originally. It also explores how a celebrity doctor fell for a convicted criminal and left her children to go on the run with him to Tanzania. Finally, viewers will get a look at who really died in Cell 35.

The documentary will see interviews by prisoners and prison warders at Mangaung Correctional Centre; the family of Katlego Bereng Mpholo, whose body was found in Cell 35; Nandipha’s brother Nkosinathi Sekeleni, and former South African Police Service head profiler Dr Gérard Labuschagne, who interviewed Bester after his 2012 arrest for rape and murder.

The documentary also shows the media’s and social media’s reactions to the story.

Director Nikki Comninos said: “We tend to discuss Thabo Bester like it’s an isolated case, but it’s clearly not.

“Bester has been depicted as some kind of anomaly for being able to run a business while incarcerated, but so did Dawie de Villiers – also a convicted rapist who lured his victims online – at a completely different prison. This raises questions about what is happening with the South African prison system.”
