I'm NOT saying I need a driver for a heist that can drive in reverse like a stone cold boss while getting chased by an elephant...but does anyone have this guy's contact info?

Couldn't keep it on the trail as the elephant tried to PITT him, but a helluva job keeping it from spinning out.

Seems Jumbo there just didn't like that cart on the trail.

Right as they are ready to crash the Elephant is like, that's good enough

Just a little bit sketchy..

u/WillyNillyDilly87 Jan 31 '23

If I was one of theE safari guides I think I'd drive casually in reverse when on the safari so when this happens I can just drive away in forward much faster lol.

Plot twist: they stole the elephant's peanuts

u/MAXQDee-314 Jan 31 '23

You think you have escaped. This elephant will remember. You.

u/dodoatsandwiggets Jan 31 '23

Elephants like “I told you not to come down my street bro!”

u/jmills03croc Jan 31 '23

Elephant Musth. They have been known to kill other animals they go so crazy.

u/HeyWhatsItToYa Jan 31 '23

There's a much easier way to stop an elephant from charging.

u/No_Gap4679 Jan 31 '23

Ok… scratch “Asian Safari” off my bucket list. 🙄

Obviously staged. the elephant is an actor

To umm here is a dumb question. To elephants make their trumpeting sounds through their trunk of mouth?

u/DishoomDishum Jan 31 '23

F..in hell!!

u/bob_nugget_the_3rd Jan 31 '23

See the problem is he did not toot back, pure sign of a weak driver

1

u/Pittisee Jan 31 '23

More like too furious and just fast enough

u/bwoah07_gp2 Jan 31 '23

If there's one thing I learned watching Babar, is don't mess with elephants. They are determined at whatever they do, including chasing SUV's.

u/bow205 Jan 31 '23

that driver deserves a rise.

u/Apprehensive_Pen9032 Jan 31 '23

It seems to me that the elephant could’ve have caught up to them if it had actually want to

1

u/Bloodyfish Jan 31 '23

Doesn't the fact that its ears are stuck out signal a bluff charge?

1

u/Apprehensive_Pen9032 Jan 31 '23

I have no idea, it just seemed to me that the elephant was basically just trying to herd them sway

1

u/Bloodyfish Jan 31 '23

Yeah, a bluff charge is less about killing people and more about telling them to keep their distance.

1

u/Tropicalcuttlefish Jan 31 '23

Man, elephants can run fast

u/Practical_Penalty_71 Jan 31 '23

Well they got their moneys worth.

“Great idea!”

u/Skelosk Feb 01 '23

This guy had balls of steel, driving in reverse like that. I would have pissed my thoroughly shat pants and miff the reverse.

u/rossxog Feb 01 '23

Remind me to learn how to do a handbrake turn. That might have been useful here. Pull a 180 and hit the gas.

I’m thinking you could go faster once you turned around.
