Getting hijacked is quite common in South Africa, and you are lucky if you survive it. My professor got hijacked the other day I found out...I think someone Mike Tyson-ed his ear during it, because it was all bandaged up right after the incident.
What the carjackers like to do (apparently) is throw an egg onto your windshield, which people naturally react to by putting on their wipers. Then that makes them completely blind when it spreads the egg all around and makes it white, so then they have to pull over. That's when they come with guns and knives and whatever else, and steal your car...and hopefully not you.
So this one guy devised an ingenious little operation where he hooked up a gas can inside the boot and added a flame thrower to his car. When he pressed a petal right by the drivers door, flame shot out the side of his car...hypothetically roasting the unsuspecting carjacker. Unfortunately, he got a little antsy when a police officer was walking up to his car from behind and stepped on it, lighting the cop on fire. Vavoom. Crime fighting Capetonians.
