Entrepreneur and businessman Tumelo Ramaphosa appears to be on a mission to make 2024 his year of taking on challenges with a fearless attitude.
The proud son of South African President Cyril Ramaphosa recently found himself enjoying some time off while exchanging the warm temperatures of South Africa for the frosty weather of Russia.
Taking to social media, Tumelo gave his followers an inside look at some of his experiences while vacationing abroad.
In an Instagram post which contains a series of videos, he takes his followers on an adventure by documenting his first meet-and-greet encounter with one of the world’s most dangerous animals – a grizzly bear.
In one of the videos posted, one can hear the amazement of meeting the bear in real life as he stands in awe of how massive the animal truly is.
Minutes later the two became so comfortable that Tumelo – who is big in stature himself – found himself wrestling with the gigantic beast.
To many people’s amazement he seemed fearless and had a lot of fun.
