Durban's Deadpool - a mysterious teenager spreading positivity

Loading player...
You will find him in different parts of Durban - spreading positivity across the city. He is a high school student whose main objective is to create joy and happiness in our residents' lives. He believes that since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, people were less 'alive' and 'bright' from being in their homes for long periods and having less physical and social interactions with people.

Durban Deadpool wants to reignite and set people's joy alight by randomly popping up at malls, coffee shops, schools and in the streets.
Unfortunately, he does not want to share his identity, but we were able to speak to Marshall Security's Andreas Mathios who personally knows Deadpool. Here is what might interest you about the young man.
