TikTok sensation Michelle Sky Hayward dives into Cape Town's murky waters, sparking a wave of reactions online. Image: TikTok TikTok user and content creator Michelle Sky Hayward leaves netizens scratching their heads after taking a deep dive into what seems like bubbling sewer water. Generally, most people know to steer clear of dodgy-looking water; however, Hayward seems to have taken the phrase 'diving into the unknown' quite literally. The content creator, who has since gone viral, shared a video of herself swimming in the mysterious-looking foamy water in Cape Town. 'I'm having so much fun, I literally don't even feel the cold,' she told the camera, moments before taking an unintentional gulp of the questionable water. Hayward then screamed and laughed after some water went into her mouth, saying it tasted 'salty'. Video Player is loading.

The adventurous fitness enthusiast has since posted a video on both Instagram and TikTok confirming that she is 'not an American tourist' and is a local to Cape Town, swimming in the sea 'at least once a week'. She said, 'I actually didn't smell anything when I went into the sea; it smelled like the normal ocean smells. 'I did notice that the water was super murky, and it is usually clear in that spot. There was also a lot of foam that I hadn't seen before. But I honestly loved the foam. I felt like I was in a bubble bath; it was so cool.' The video's comments section was filled with people baffled by the water's murky appearance. Viewers were quick to point out the obvious signs of questionable water quality, with many left wondering how Hayward didn't notice. 'I refuse to believe this is raw sewage and it doesn't have the worst smell … how did you not smell it?' asked @nsreemxx. 'As humans, we have a natural aversion to things that don't look or feel right. Even if they didn't know the exact reasoning, people would not want to get in this water upon seeing it. But I guess not everyone,' said @RedScarf.

From tired to terrific: watch this woman's viral TikTok facelift transformation
Michelle Wood, a TikToker, has garnered significant attention for her astonishing facelift transformation. Her youthful new look and impressive results have captivated many. Image: TikTok TikTok users were amazed by a woman's stunning transformation after she revealed her new look following a facelift. Michelle Wood took to TikTok on June 6 to document her cosmetic surgery journey as she was in Guadalajara, Mexico, to get a deep plane facelift because losing weight twice in her life changed her skin drastically, especially her neck. Wood also explained in her video the type of surgeries she is going to get in detail, besides the facelift she got, including a full forehead lift, a chin implant, as well as minor changes. 'Good morning, my name is Michelle, I am documenting my journey here in Guadalajara. I am down here to look more refreshed and to feel more refreshed. 'I am 50 years old, almost 51, and I have decided to get a full face lift, forehead lift, upper bleph, lower bleph (eyelid surgery) and a lip lift as well as a mini chin implant to help my profile,' she explained. In another video, the mom of two explained that another reason why she got the surgery was because she never felt 'pretty and always looked really tired', and she is quite happy with how she looks now. According to Wood, the entire cosmetic procedure cost her 270,000 Mexican Pesos, which is approximately 254,341 South African Rands. The before and after videos shocked many online users as Wood continues to document her healing journey as users expressed that she looked 20 years younger and her doctor did an incredible job. Social media user @michibee33 commented: 'This is unreal!!! You literally look 30, but like naturally 30. Never would guess it's a facelift, you just look young. Amazing.' 'Seriously, your face lift has got to be one of THE BEST I have ever seen.' @ wrote. Other online users expressed that she now kind of resembles Nickelodeon star, Amanda Bynes. 'You kinda look like 2000s Amanda Bynes!!' @aliaxismall shared.
