While holidaying in Western Cape recently, the “Housekeepers” actress jumped off one of the world’s highest bungee bridge.
In a few videos that are packed with emotions on her social media pages we see Thabethe getting ready for the Bloukrans Bridge jump.

“I jumped from a bridge today...the highest bungy bridge in the world!!!
“Safe to say there’s nothing I can’t do (swipe left...see if you can see me wording that to myself just before I jumped) 🦅🦅🦅 will post part 2 shortly.”

With more than 80 000 likes on both posts, Thabethe’s fans and industry friends commented on how brave she was to put herself through the jump.
