Alderman JP Smith het ‘n video op sosiale media gedeel waarin hy sê brandbestryders is gister na die Kaapse karnaval ontplooi, met die temperatuur wat verhoog het: “But this time, it was them bringing the heat.”
“The City of Cape Town Fire and Rescue crew left the Fanwalk in Green Point smoldering after their Cape Town Carnival pre-parade appearance.”
Brandbestryders met blinkgesmeerde bolywe het die skare met danspassies vermaak. In die kommentaarafdeling het versoeke vir die alderman om ook sy hemp te laat waai, opgeduik: “Mr Alderman, as a matter of public interest; your shirt… Take it off! Take it off! Take it off! Round of applause to our girls and boys in red. Mr Haskel, Mr Carelse… we’d love to see you oiled up too.”
Ander lesers het die danspassies gekritiseer met: “Muscle with no rhythm or rhythm with no muscle 
pick your struggle … Well done colleagues 
“
