Man killed by trained elephant

The next time someone questions whether elephants are dangerous game, ask them what they think after seeing what this trained elephant did to its handler.

Wow! The elephant apparently had enough.

Wow! The elephant apparently had enough.

Had to have broken about every bone in that poor man’s body.

Broken! How about turned into mush!!!
My PH’s sister said she was dumb enough to go on one cow Elephant hunt and would never do it again! I ask why and she said that when in the herd the Cows they wanted nothing else but to turn you into jelly! That what just happened to that poor man sadly…

I've watched videos of them working over rhinos and buffalo, apparently just for the fun of it. This one only appeared to be mildly annoyed. Besides that, it's a much smaller Asian elephant and probably only half the size as a big African bull.

In the wild, when a big bull becomes aware of you and turns and squares up, they somehow become even 10 times larger. It's something that simply can't be described.

Having seen how "trained" elephants are trained and treated I am on the elephants side.

Nasty way to die but at least it wasn't prolonged.
A good reminder to never be in close proximity of a pissed off elephant.

Apparently X former Twitter removed the content.

Here is the video that was originally posted

Still no video.

The above video shows an Asian Elephant. Imagine an African Elephant. We rode in the backs of Elephants on our first trip to SA, and it crossed my mind of what would happen if one of those Elephants would go rogue.

Ran into a cow that had lost a tusk and the socket had gotten infected. That was one pissed off bitch. Seeing what she did to a villager was horrifying.
The next elephant I saw was at a zoo and I broke into a cold sweat just seeing it.
