Thrill? Yikes! This happened at Ndutu,TZ a few weeks back. We heard a driver calling for help after a male elephant knocked over their LandCruiser. I saw a video that eve and the culprit wasn’t even that big IMHO. But 2 passengers had to be airlifted out (never heard the outcome). You always think that you can read an elephant’s intent, but you really never know. Remember the story of Tom Siegel being gored by an elephant back in 2009/2010 (google it, a Forbes article)? That always crosses my mind when an Ele looks agitated or wants the right of way, so I always ask my driver to back away.
