- VLOG 2/3 in collaboration with Times Live!
I went to uncover some little known springwater vaults at the base of Table Mountain and I found some seriously weird stuff. We are sitting on a ton of water!
In partnership with Times LIVE and Good Hope Adventures. Special thanks to City of Cape Town for maintaining this heritage site.
Cape Town water crisis 2017 is far from over however the aquifer under Table Mountain is pumping out quite a bit. See what the City of Cape Town is doing to try utilize it.
South Africa is an amazing place and if you are looking for things to do in Cape Town Western Cape then go to goodhopeadventures.com to find out more.

Amazing clip. So much detail brought across
Lekker video..history is my passion. These vids are my kinda thing..😁
I love this stuff, unearth more unknown awesomeness for us please!!! subbed!
Will do Brother!
Wow really interesting! Did not know about this!
Thank you for sharing.
I say to heck with green point stadium and the parks, we the public need the water. CT water management personnel should do something about it and there also seems to be a lot of wastage.
Awesome Vlog mate - you've given me a few weekend ideas to explore!
Capetown Freeminded thanks a million!!
Very interesting!
I don't know what amazes me more, the fact that this exists, or the fact that I used to live just a stones throw from there (a bit further up in Sidmouth Ave) and never knew about it! Well, I knew that there were loads of rivers, and so on, in the area, but didn't know about these springs. That's very cool, and I can only hope that the City of Cape Town is using them as much as possible to help lessen the ongoing water crisis!!
Do an updated vlog on the current levels in those vaults.
Nice find!
Thanks for spreading awareness of water resources in Cape Town. I used to conduct tours with European students accompanied by a tour guide...
Excellent videos
Wow wow wow. We have so much history in CT.
You’re a great vlogger!

Merci pour ce partage , en espérant que cette eau puisse servir LE PLUS rapidement QUE POSSIBLE aux résidents - COURAGE A TOUS -
so now..... with Cape Towns Water shortages ..... what does it look like NOW???
Greetings Adam, can the general public access these natural gems?
Lol I know that Guy Matt, he gave me a tour around cape town and cape point in August with my school from belgium
This area couldn't possibly even come close to supplying CT with enough water.
WE IN SOUTH AFRICA REALLY NEED THE YOUNG GENERATION. TO FIND WAYS AND USE OUR WATER RESOURCES TO HELP EVERY ONE HAS EXCES TO CLEAN WATER AND ALSO GENERATE ELECTRICITY HOW I HOPE THAT SOUTH AFRICANS CAN UNITE AND MAKE OUR COUNTRY INDEPENDENT LIVE IN PEACE AND HARMONY REMEMBER EVERY BODY NEEDS TO WAKE UP AND EARN A LIVING NOT GRABE ANOTHER ONES AND ALSO THE GOVERNMENT MUST HAVE PEOPLE WHO HELP THE PEOPLE NOT THEMSELVES. UNITE AND GIVE ALL RACES A CHANCE TO WIN SOUTH AFRICA AND BACK PEACE TO ALL ❤
"Abandon hope all yee that enter here!"
good
So now I am confused. Is this not enough water to keep the taps running in Cape Town?
Joe Koch : do you see the houses/apts in that area? it's to sustain ppl like them. not the ones in shanties and huts
4:02
shit man for a second I thought I was gonna see Adele.
u got me😅
LOL @ the maths expert "1686 is 10 years after Jan van Riebeeck got here" !
*THEREFORE* All you schoolkids watching now : 1652 + 10 = 1686 ! The internet never lies!
when did they stop using all those lead pipes?
Great Tshirt idea.. "A WORLD OF AMAZINGNESS"..how many more things are in cape town i havent seen.. Who's that 1 person that disliked this video are you dead inside???
Yusuf Petersen haters be haters lol
Thanks
I went ther for a school outing
Still trying to figure how this is fixing the problem?
I don't get it. If there is so much water in these vaults, why is CT experiencing a water shortage? Doesn't make sense.
Wayne Viviers, My thoughts exactly
the springs produce around 5 - 10 million litres per day.... CT uses 600m per day.
Wayne Viviers then it might mean CT has no crisis
It's a lot of water but it's not ENOUGH water.
It's a money making thing...
Nice but a marginal quantity compared to the need.
Cape Town currently, with water restrictions, consumes a minimum of 520,000,000 liters per day.
This well produces a bit less than 2,500,000 liters a day.
This is less than 0.5% of Cape Town's daily need.
Fred van Leeuwen this is one of 13 plus every little bit helps
That is why I started my comment with "Nice"
1652 Jan van Riebeek arrived. Don't know about your ten years before 1686. Lol, you numbers remind me of your president JZ 😂😂😂. Kidding man, but funny none the less. 😁 nice vlog man
Bonga Dlamini lol bro I'm mostly wrong 😂
+Bonga, time was more valuable in 1652, 34 years back then are only 10 years today. :)
They’ve fixed it?
Laka video minere
Okay this is a wonderful video but what is the name of that beat @ 2:46 ?
kabelo tsepang good question, I'll try check 😊
Wow that would be great!
lol he never checked
He knows de wey.
This too needs the sky to RAIN. I'm so happy now the richest people will die last. I want to know who you're talking about when you say "we" are all going to pull through this crisis.
883.8 megaliters per annum from those springs, that's almost 1.7 days worth of water for Capetown
Waooo bro.
I live there
allot of water going to waste...to hell with the stadiums parks and wine farms..the public need the water...!!!
Still not enough water for the city
lekker ou jan
With this knowledge the City okayed this water to go to Greenpoint Stadium and Greenpoint echo park.... like serious. We are being fooled.
😮Firstly thanks to God for that abundance of water and thanks Jan Van Riebeeck and Simon Van Der Stel for building the vaults. (1686)👍😀
And thanks to your all-powerful fairy for the drought too. Aren't you a little too old to have an imaginary friend?
Amanda Wait no they found the springs they did not building the spring
The native people built these, probably in slavelike conditions. They also found the springs since they are of the land.
Lol your city is out of water and your still worrying about whether a white or black fella built it or found it. Lol its like two ants arguing over huge rock. The rock will outlast em all. Mother nature owns the rock and she doesn't care what colour you are.
Yup Monty. The blame game. South Africans love that but when shove comes to push they all sit on the sideline to only moan and complain
Yes, Green Point eco park, and the rest flows into the sea... idiotic, right?
One of my colleagues approached Patricia De Lille regarding this, and she appeared on the front page of the Cape Times, but did absolutely nothing about it...
They were warned about the draught round about when Greenpoint stadium were upgraded and yet, they made sure they can get the stadium be sorted with water, but what about the people.
30 litres per second x 5 = 12 million litres per day -
Ray Watson can you math 3*5=15
Soooo, temporarily human consumption at home could be more important; than at sport venue's. Running out of good potable water, sooner, because of *less - important use. Hard to explain to a dying√ child or grandparent ? Matt.7:12/ Romans 12:20/ 13:10 Love works no harm, to its neighbor. When the supply was small, God took care of the widow, her son, and Elijah. Hebrews 11:6 LORD Bless...🙋
.
The black man whos showed this to white ppl pretty much sealed the deal for the native population
Clean yo lens man!
