WATCH: Viral video shows terrified black man being shoved into a coffin by white man
Disturbing footage has emerged online of a black man being forced into a coffin by a white, Afrikaans-speaking South African man.
In the video - which went viral on social media at the weekend and has since attracted tens of thousands of views and comments - two white men can be heard discussing how to deal with the black man in the coffin, while one repeatedly tries to shove him inside.
In the 20-second clip, one of the white men tells the black man in Afrikaans to: "Get in. I want to pour some petrol."
Another person is meanwhile recording the events as they unfold.
The victim can be heard wailing uncontrollably as the coffin lid is placed on-top of him.
The distressing footage has caused widespread condemnation online - with some viewers criticizing the perpetrators for their actions, calling for officials to arrest the two 'racist' men.
Others, however, have questioned what the victim may have done to warrant the punishment - which some have deemed as 'deserving'.
The circumstances surrounding the video - and its source - are not yet known.
