- Angry Elephant Charges Safari Guide | Big 5 | African Wild Elephants
We experienced this nerve-wracking encounter in the heart of South Africa near the Kruger National Park. Tension was building up searching for this herd of 22 African Elephants. This Elephant Bull charged the Safari Guide and our Game Viewing Vehicle. Cazwell, our tracker, nearly wet his pants experiencing this deadly charge. He did an excellent job to cope under these unusual circumstances. I love it when he says: "What's wrong with you?" Nature always makes me feel small. Such a memorable experience!

“Elephant charges”
Guide:- slaps the car!
Elephant:- understandable!
😂
The Elephant knew that if he had stepped any closer to the Guide, he would lose.
BADLY!!!
@@LoboGuara5bruxaria Yeah.
You can always tell a mad elephant because of them walking faster than normal and in a careless reckless way where you can see they're ram into something even before they do it
It's more about your confidence in your power than your actual power
Quite cooperative 😂
I like how he casually talks to him like they are neighbors

That tracker is just very lucky! And so was everybody else!

luck and chance does not factor with the all knowing blessed Creator who works everything to precise calculations, those who continue to be absent minded of the blessed Creator will soon after there departure from this life to continue in their absence and void of his presence and pain will be relevant just as it is also on earth
After spending the last 5 months in the bush, I've learned this - you really are neighbors but you always maintain your respect as you get to know the different characters of the regularly seen elephants !
@@EliteSimp24 o.
So glad the elephant understands English.
Lol, 'Hayi' is actually not English.
Beautiful World Hayi is elephantese for Hey you in familiar tense
@@brindacockburn4033 Lol, 😂 I like that, even though you just made that up. 'Hayi' means 'no' in Xhosa/Zulu. It is also used as an exclamation in a sense of danger, fear or surprise.
Beautiful World Thanks - glad to know.
@@makteko funny part they were not even speaking Zulu ...it shows how similar are sa languages are.. to west African languages languages
Everyone talking about the elephant. Just look at the sky as well. It's amazing.
Nah
It's about the quality of the camera the are holding here
This is how sky looks every day at Shimla.
And the elephant's willy too.
Hahahhaha ...fabulous
@@blossom7664 wow
Imagine asking an Elephant that just charged you “What’s wrong with you?”
Only a brave person’s reply.
I don’t understand why you’re so mad at me sir.
@@NielVanDerWalt.
"Hai, what's wrong with you" 🤣🤣🤣🤣 that man has nerves of steel, I would shitt my pants
Very delicate language.
Now i know why that guy has his seat ahead of the jeep 😂😂
Lol🤭🤭
Playing tap tap
He is having a death wish as I know
Legend has it they use his balls to block sunlight
It's a sacrificial chair.🤣🤣🤣😬😬😳
Elephant and guider work together whole day and splits money at end 🤣
Edit : ohh god I'm famous now 😂
Love u all from India🇮🇳 🤍stay safe stay blessed :)
😁😁😁
Like The Rock in The Jungle Cruise
🤣🤣🤣
Best comment 100% 🤣🤣🤣
😂😂
Excellent job, Guide, for staying cool. If you're out in the bush and your guide panics then you will suffer an immediate evacuation of the bowels !
Definitely! We had excellent guides.
Mad Max is just causual day in Australia !
What are u talking about this was too close.if it would be an elephant on mating Phase they all would be death rn
@@apache8165 “if your guide sh1ts his pants, you will too”
doesn't work this time: th-cam.com/video/anZckJUbu_E/w-d-xo.html
Never ceases to amaze me how such a big animal just seems to melt into the bush. Once saw a herd of elephants cross the road in Hwange, Zimbabwe and in less than a minute they had disappeared into the thicket. Almost by magic
Wow. It is amazing how Elephants keep on impressing the world. I agree with you! Magical.
I have noticed the same on many of these nature videos...but you wouldn't think it possible w/elephants...Then, gone...no trace, except the footprints.
@@debrahouston2884 very true. They just disappear in a flash
On these types of trails we were warned that if you saw an elephant dung-pile, that was still steaming, you were point-blank in the danger zone. Yep, the bush just opens and closes like sliding doors even for the largest land mammals on Earth.
This is barely related, but it's the same with deer that live near me. They live in a fairly small wooded area and I've only seen them a handful of times. I've explored the woodland a lot as a kid and have no idea where they stay during the day.
Mock charge. Well done Guide and Tracker. Clients - you too for keeping calm & quiet.
Thank you! It was an unreal experience.
@@NielVanDerWalt i think that the guide handled it well “slap!! Hey calm down what’s the matter with you?”
ম৷ িম৷
Elephants are so graceful but yet so intimidating.. I couldn’t imagine being this so close up it would be so humbling and probably floor my emotions.
It feels unreal.
Guide: "what's wrong with you?"
Elephant: "I was about to ...you disturbed me."
Such amazing self-confidence in front of that enormous force coming towards him, those tusks were really close.
Too close!
Lol ... that guide is like "Don't even try, I'm not taking any sh-t". Everyone should try these African 'game drives', it's a wonderful experience - there is nothing like being out in the real African wild.
Yeah that elephant was really brave but he knew that guide wasn't playing.
I love it when he says 'whats wrong with you' the elephant says I'm going to knock down a few trees and then we'll have a chat.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Ppliiiii
Funniest comment!
"What is wrong with you"😂😂that took me outtttttt
It couldn't be said any better. Thank you!
Elephant :" wanna mess with me."
Guide slaps the car
Elephant :"Ok"
Couldn't have been said better. Love it!
Elephant: "you're gonna die MOFO"
(Guide slaps car)
Elephant: "hey chill dude, I was just playing, can't a bull have a laugh these days?"
lol
hahaha
The traitor still flinched hard when the elephant got close though so🙄
Loool
Elephants have an innate fear of humans due to the amount of time they've lived alongside us. We're not the biggest or strongest, but we are incredibly adaptable, intelligent, and live in large groups. This means that if one person is killed, it's more than likely that more people will come for whatever killed their friend. There are lots of videos where people who hold their ground are able to ward off large elephants. Really neat stuff!
At the beginning of the video look at the sky wow Africa is beautiful
Couldn't agree more! What a country!
Let's destroy it 😎
I love the fact that these guys were in a way prepared for this situation hearing from their communication, even the driver telling him to hit the bonnet, big ups to the guides
So beautiful! This person can communicate with animals so beautifully.
are you serious? he was just lucky
@@jacquelinerobin7732 Not lucky. Smart. He knew not to jump
Make loud noise to scare them - beautiful communication.
You really think he " communicated" with a wild and annoyed elly ? Just was very lucky the elly decided to veer off...
He slapped a car😮
That elephant : I'm gonna sma....................sh that tree...😂😂
😁☀
😃😃

🤣🤣🤣
The Big Animal is so intelligent .I bow down to his sudden reaction of calming down .Brave guide .
How can u be so fearless!! I wish O had 1% of bravery of that guy
Because he have balls of steel
While you have...
Me too having same thought
You should try taking 100% of him 😂
Wow!!! Everything!!! The gorgeous scenery, sky, lushness, dirt roads...the elephants..My God....What an absolute gift to get to experience that.....So jealous in my concrete box
Thank you for the kind words! Africa is a beautiful place.
@@NielVanDerWalt You are blessed.
That spotter. Firm, brave and compassionate to the elephant's feelings. Keep being all that!
The Elephants sees these safari jeeps quite a lot, they probably see it as a nuisance, rather than a actual physical attack. I'm sure if they felt impending danger no one would be able to walk away from their wrath.
When I went on a safari, we saw the elephants from far away and they came toward us to check us out. It probably depends on the situation in the park, but they seemed as curious about us as we were about them 😊
some elephants think they are annoying but others are curious too
The aggressive one in this vid looks like a young male, probably just being a boisterous youngster who is mostly bluff.
Duh 🙄
Wow! Fantastic job to the guide and his co-worker. I would’ve had a heart attack right on the spot! Good job on the elephant’s part too for self control💜
Same here I would definitely shout loud 🙂🙂🙂
Nah. Not would’ve had a heart attack. /
You know how they say an elephant 🐘 never forgets, i think it turned away because it knows the guides that work there, if it was a stranger it would have been a different story.
@@Rigza_wa_Janelook
@Rigza_wa_Jane no lmao, it's because elephants test if you are confident or not by charging at you. When it charges at a rhino or human and they don't move they stop because they think you are calm because you can win against them and don't feel threatened. Running shows fear which means the elephant is confident in the fact that it poses a threat to you
Omg…. How cool, calm and collected was the gentleman in the bucket seat on the front! He didn’t even flinch lol…👏👏
Hello Linda
The Elephants, earth & sky were so majestic it was ethereal.
The man sitting on the precipice is one of the bravest
The best.
More than everything happened it was a bliss to watch the beautiful landscape of Africa 👍🏼
Pi
So chill he doesn't even sweat.
The animal probably already knows this guy and sees him everyday.
that is very probably
Elephant : charges
Guide : my hand has more power than your trunk
That’s one skilled tour guide 😂
Mr Caswell, the elephant whisperer.
Wow...u jus gotta love Africa!
N olifant is n rerige mooi dier so groot en perfek gemaak ❤️❤️
HE IS IN HIS RIGHT!!!!🔥🔥🔥👏You invaded!💥
Amazing, never seen an Elephant with two trunks before.
Man:what's wrong with you?
Elephant: you are in my territory.. duh😣
Great courage to sit there Mann.. Had heart in my mouth..
It's all fun and games and laughter until you cross the line. Get 'em, Simba!
It's amazing of these giant creature can actually hide pretty well
Yes, I think it is their earthy-grey colour that help to camouflage.
The guide plays the confidence game with the wild, and it has worked so far 😁
Elephant takes offence at use of nothing more than iPhone to record his majestic beauty.
Probaby an android user.
@@alanfoster6589 💩🐑🍎💩🤢
"Voetsek" is an amazingly effective word to chase off about anything, even elephants!!! 😂😂
he has a spirit of steel...OMG
Plot twist:
Angry "elephant" is sitting on the car's mounted chair.
I can not believe how clean the dash of this vehicle is in these conditions. 😀
I admire the attitude of the tour guide. respect
Height of cool. When I go into the bush, this is the guy I want looking after me.
South Africa is a fantastic place for open vehicle safari like this!
Well done.
That guide is THEE KING of the Jungle! Impressive!👏🏾
Thank you!
It's 100,000 years ago. You're walking with some other hunters from your tribe through the scrublands of Africa, armed only with primitive weapons. Suddenly you hear a trumpeting sound and the snapping of tree limbs. You look ahead and see a massive, tusked animal running at you with incredible speed while making the loudest sound you've ever heard.
It's incredible to think that every human on Earth had ancestors who experienced this very situation. We've come a long ways as a species.
Some of us come from another galaxy. We don’t have elephants in our planet. But yea, we’ve also come a long way as a different specie
Now we are turning into a bunch of Bxtches... no pun intended
That's me staying calm in the name of God when problems come charging at me 👍
Thanks..nice
@@bharathirajasulochana3961 God bless 👍
🎉😢
😊😊@@samzero00james
He handled that like a boss!!! That's how you put an elephant in its place.
Handled like a master. Elephants ate so beautiful
I agree. Elephants are my favorite in the wild. Talk about gentle giants…
"Haai ..relax ..whats wrong with u" just like that the elephant was gone
“The Elephant whisperer.”
The best part of these video are the comments
Wow this video makes me feel like I'm right there. Beautiful majestic animals. Great quality video.
i come to watch this masterpiece everyday , this view makes me feel so good
Thank you very much for the complement! I really appreciate it. Please share with your friends!
This is the mercy of the Animal.
Great camera though!
Thank you!
They're lucky the elephant was only bluffing. They should've taken the hint and left the area. Not a good idea to antagonize a 7-ton animal
7 tons is more likely the weight of the female. Males are heavier. This would be a male, since he is alone.
7 tons is tops for a mature male. This fellow is a good deal less though still very strong & dangerous.
@@Hertog_von_Berkshire record is 11 tons
@@pettersaethre we not talking record weights we talking the average weight
@@bobbysanchezlive659 what did the guy above me claim. read the posts
Thanks for posting this video and hearting everyone.
Pleasure. Just trying to spread the beauty of Africa!
That man never even flinched! Wow
how can you stay calm on the face of death? unbelievable
This is regular for them
You acclimate yourself to it. What Khalid said.
Tour guide: what’s wrong with you?
Elephant: just messing with u no need to slap the chair 😒
Good one!
The way guide made elephant change route was cool
Those Trackers know exactly what they are doing, and certainly won't endanger their clients at any cost. All praise to the Rangers and Trackers!
You want that dude in your squad 👏🔥
I love my country...🇿🇦
Best country in the world!
I just 🤍 #ELEPHANTS🐘.
Such a cool guy!😍🤩❤
A mean the elephant.😉😄
Incredible!
He just said hello to the guide thats all that guy everyday in the jungle has made new friends.... the elephant was like :My man 😂🤣
Interesting technique to ward off this elephant! Man, this guide knows what he's doing. It's almost like the guide's body movement coupled with the hand slap distracted the elephant enough to not attack. Interesting! Kudos to you Mr. Guide!!🐘🐘
I want that guide when I go on my safari tour -- u can't scare those bushmen!! BRAVO, buddy!!! 🤣🤣🤣
I would be like 😳😧😧😧...🤪
Absolutely astonished.
@@NielVanDerWalt Yah!
(Elephant charges)
Guy with his hand - are u comedy me ?
اانتنک.
As if open vehicles were not dangerous enough, they decide to put a seat right on the bonnet and have a man sit on it.
Swag
Perfect quality video suited for 2023.
Amazing hd camera. I felt there myself in full screen view.
For that guy to stay cool and calm as a 5 ton animal charges him is incredible
1:28 that young bull already made a beeline before the guide slapped the vehicle bonnet .
Elephants are like diesel trucks they the king of the road! Lol I love Elephants 😁
After watching this I now have new respect for these guides
Handling the situation properly
Smart guide 👍
They have enough experience on this in sri Lanka we have lots of same experience.
Excellent video love it 💕👌
Young bull was far from angry. he was literally putting on a show
A pretty scary show.
@@NielVanDerWalt that I do would agree lol
Woow I like the view 🤩💚
Me too. The beautiful African sky.
I Always, Always, Always cheer for the elephant to come out on top !
Excellent video, know the feeling.
Tourists were like : " So, are you going to be our new Safari guide today? What happen to the other guy?
New safari guide was like : " Oh!! I guessed you guys haven't got the news yet. He forgot to tap the bonnet yesterday.
Great one!
That looks fun, riding a jeep on a chair fixed to its bonnet.
Fun, but scary.
Strong Jurassic park vibes here. Wonderful creatures
This is called real understanding...
This is what it looks like when I'm with my boyfriend and I'm hangry. lmfao
Hats off to this courageous guide..
Bro Park Ranger of the year 🙏🏿🙏🏿
Full grown bull African elephant, easily the largest living land animal: charges at car
Tour guide: slaps hood
Elephant: "Understandable. Have a nice day"
All jokes aside, this footage is amazing.
Haha! Thank you for the kind words. Appreciated.
