Nerves of steel - How calm would you be in this situation?

- This tracker did exactly the right thing by remaining calm while an elephant properly sniffed him out. Chances are it would have ended very differently had he panicked.

The brave one here is the elephant, protecting his herd and facing the most vicious animal on the planet alone.
true... i was in a zoo and there was a box which said there u can see the most dangerous animal on earth... i opened it and saw whats inside... it was a

This guide actually pays the same elephant to do this every tour... they’ve had this hustle since he was a calf.
Elephant on a mission. Lol
really whats the name of the safari and guides website ??
that's correct, the elephants recognize them. Most people don't know this.

Legend says the guy is still sitting on that chair
yes, he is stuck to the seat by dried poo-poo
Legend also says he grew 3 more testicles on that day
“No sir not leaving this chair.”
Fun fact ...he still there at this moment :)
Legend says the guy change his underwear seconds after this meeting.
I worked as a safari guide for 10 years, got very close to elephants. There was physical contact there, tracker was totally cool. The body language of the elephant non-aggressive. Still a bit dangerous because if things change there is no time to respond. Having said that those big bulls often become very habituated, and in areas where they are not poached or hunted they become very relaxed and predictable. Awesome experience!!!
I would love to experience something like that
In a way, I envy this guide and the wonderful experience he had with a bull elephant. It's marvelous.
this elephant seemed unfazed by the humans. got the feeling the elephant knew from prior experience there might be something to eat in it for him and he checked them out for it. hope the tourists are instructed not to carry any food with them.
I love how the guy filming is more concerned about his truck than the guy sitting 6 inches away from the elephants tusks
the ranger is calm and collected and knows how to handle himself
Lol
Why is there a special chair at the front of the vehicle? Its almost like he is being offered as a sacrifice or food.
Guide for the safari tour
To let the animals know who is incharge in the car
It is known as the Tracker's chair. While the vehicle is moving, the tracker has a full 180 degrees view without obstacles and can also see tracks on the ground, in order to direct the guide driving.

If you encounter an elephant like that and it tries to attack you, just say "STOP" , the elephant is not allowed legally to hurt you without your permission
LMAO
@@GenEmperor He's not that far off (besides the law thingie). When an elephant charges, it's most often a mock charge, when you stand your ground and yell, it will back away. A mock charge can be mostly differentiated by a relaxed trunk, when the trunk is curled better pray that your tour guide has something loud to scare the elephant away.
If he does we have Karen in the vehicle and she WILL call the manager.
If they try to attack someone, the person had it coming because they don’t unless they have to... only self-defence
@@Cassxowary Don't be silly. The innumerable deaths caused by elephants throughout the whole of history were obviously due to a wide variety of reasons. Not everyone "had it coming". Do you suppose that an elephant has never killed a baby in the last few millennia, for example?

The men perfectly understood the body language of the elephant. The elephant was simply curious and didn't consider the men and their vehicle as a threat. Or else it would be snoring with widespread ears and tail raised. Even so, the men did a great job in keeping their cool and staying calm.
Mario Duddu ...ya he understood everything, like the show of dominance the Elephant made at the end by turning his side to the car. That you don’t scare me and now You can go. 😎

The guides had the discipline and knowledge necessary to read the behaviors. The approaching elephant was demonstrating curiosity behavior so all they had to do was calmly allow it to act inquisitively.
Right
correct. young Bull.not aggressiv
Correct, you can never fight it anyway so may as well be calm.
Behaviors my ass
@@dennisespinoza6133 exactly, it was a lucky guess. That guy shat himself and the elephant smelled it. Just a lucky coincidence, the tourist had no clue because he was the 1000th tour guide employed by that tour company after the previous employees left. They all had to go to their own funerals. Lol

Maybe he smelled man-dung?
The ellie probably knows the ranger well so both parties know how to behave. Elephants have mediocre eyesight but smell much better than dogs so they can easily tell us apart by smell.
Elephant wont ever forget that man
Elephants are naturally a very gentle, smart animal, they won't harm you unless you harm them first.

So beautiful. Elephants are truly amazing creatures
WeedyZA ...until they're hunted for sport by bipeds with no soul.
+Visteo Bman 😂 You are a one man circus... and no, you aren't racist. You are just poor and ignorant.
Aw how nice :), until they tear your head off because they don't like the look of you. These animals are unpredictable.
Even the elephant is surprised at the guide’s sheer guts. The tusks were on his legs and he still didn’t budge. More power to you Sir.
ofc he didn't budge. he knows his stuff. it's an elephant, not a hippo, rhino or lion. one false move and you might startle the elephant, that is when things get out of hand.
One of the outtakes from Weekend at Bernie's: Africa. Elephants never forget.. except this one! Went through the scene a dozen times and he just couldn't nail the one effin' line he had. 🐘
I held my breath watching this, quality.
the art of communication. Something many people still unable to do properly.
Elephant comes over "what are you? Who are you?"
Guy is relaxed, his body languages says "look buddy, no danger here, alright?"
Elephant says :" oh okay, no danger, lemme check what's up there and I'll be gone"
Exactly. He is designated to protect the tribe/herd/group. So, he will step forth to analyze what's happening with these strange anamolies, like noise making creatures aka jeeps, funny looking creatures inside them, Us. As long as he is satisfied that there's no harm here, we are all safe. That's the reason why, we need to keep our mouths shut when there is a problem ahead and think rather than respond immediately.
Right!!!! Tell all the people who have been killed by an elephant the same thing. This is stupid people doing stupid things. Just because you think you’re “communicating” with an animal doesn’t mean he feels the same. You give them space by staying away and observing, not trying to get in their space, that’s crazy. One swipe of his trunk and you got a vid for when good times go bad.
Brigada91 exactly
Ijustcamehere Ijustcamehere true it is a crazy gamble depending on the elephants mood

Its amazing to think that the elephant is going to remember guys smell throughtout his life. Elephants never forget
poor elephants, one can only hope they make mostly positive experiences

Brought to you by Old Spice Elephant Memory edition.
I was thinking that.
Fantastic pieces of creativity and genius. All the animals are a display of the most inventive designs ever.
Well,.....elephants never forget, right? They've probably met several times before. Elephant's like, "oh hey, Kevin, how's it going?"
The real strength of a human lies in his brain and not his muscles.
Lol your dp says something else
You say that because you don't know the power of the balls
The brain's masculine power mostly comes from testosterone, hence male criminals and fighters are far more common than female ones. Male hormones are the key, related to "balls".
Well said!
But I don't think humans belong there anyway cuz they always fuck things up! Sad but so True!!!!!!
That was beautiful. The Elephant saw they were no threat and then tried to have a friendly communication with the human-things for a moment. Sensing they were of good spirit, the lead elephant left them alone and moved on.
Thanks for uploading!!

That elephant was very kind one.. He just checked whether there is any threat to his group or not. Otherwise he was OK with the presence of the strangers in his territory..
But you need to consider that this was a common safari route so they are mostly used to humans
Well that only works for some elephant .
And in africa there was elephant massacre.
If any elephant survive from that. They always remember what human do to their species.

He CLEARLY has had experienced alot of life issues cause the patience and resilience he displayed lolol he can face anything
The elephant knows what he is doing, he is blocking the humans by standing infront of the vehicle , so that his herd is crossing safely to the other side, he is buying time and waiting for the full herd to cross the road, after the last elephant crossed the road , he just waited for two more minutes and walked away, real Leader💕💕
Towards the end, the elephant is like "Gentlemen u may now watch my behind as I leave!!"😊
Made my day!
He was like thanks for nothing
Where's my peanuts?
😂😂
Elephant : Yo hoooooman come on don't be scared ,
Let me pet you...
You are so cute.
Everyone else figures he was scoping them out as a threat but he probably just wanted the hoomans to 'mire' his tusks. He seemed almost disappointed at the end, he was waiting so patiently too
In fact I have read that elephants view us the same way as we do dogs! So most probably found him cute.

I didn't hear that at first. Watched the video again after reading your comment. Ignorant guy. It was very aggravating to hear him say that.
The driver and tracker could tell the Bull wasn't aggressive, they likely know the herd pretty well. He had no reason to be concerned for the tracker and saying that about his car was just an offhand wry comment, you guys get too worked up about nothing.

Dorian Payne lol you are not kidding...
That elephant must have nerves of steel for approaching a human like that.

Ikmel A.A.A. 😅loool
Agreed! Hands down, humans are the most wretched creature that has lived upon the earth...that elephant is lucky he didn’t get killed!
RicoTorreze The female crossed first, then the male came out (the guy off camera called him a ‘boy’, but u can tell bcuz he’s bigger than the other 2). As the male is checking them out you can see a juvenile cross behind him. The male was checking out the humans to make sure there was no threat to the juvenile. He sensed no threat so moseyed on his way. If he had sensed threat he would have called out an alarm long b4 his approach & more elephants would have come charging. Yes some may have been killed but the humans would have been the ones left worse off. More that likely these men were nature reserve employees and the elephants are quite use to them. You can learn more about them by reading up on The Zimbabwe River Valley Elephants. Our zoo is big into conservation. You can also learn more about the elephants at HTTP://www.scz.org. They are an amazing, beautiful & very intelligent animal.
