  • killing things for no reason 101

  • ';'

  • i don't know what i think of shooting a handicapped elephant, according to other comments, with a bow, but I have got to say that is some top notch hilarious narration

  • cg

  • this man was no sporsman, he was showman, his success down to the pain he caused various animals, handicapped or chained so he could get a shot, and only killed for the camera. Fred Bear is the true sportsman, respecting his quarry and pitting his wits against it with no unfair advantages nd giving the the cleasnest death he could.

  • i am against killing animals like this (hate mr ellie's screams) but thats got to be quite a feat! condemns and kudos

  • The truth behind this footage is that the elephant had his knee caps shot with a rifle before howard shot it with a bow. That is why the elephant doesent charge. Do a little research and see how howard had many of his kills handicapped before he shot.

    Fred Bear is the true bowman.

  • Awesome footage of the past - too bad that most african states ban elephant hunting nowadays despite the exploding numbers of these bests and the growing problems of the rual population with these gigantic dangerous critters.

  • @Sideshowbobx Too bad? That's great news. If you're in for a real challenge, pick on someone of your own brain level. There are a bunch of criminals in this world that need a little lesson in manners.

  • @Comp1337e For once are game animals not stupid nor am I into hunting down fellow human beings - for criminals there is the legal system.

    And tell some poor african farmer that the growing number of beasts is great news - if you want to save em start a zoo, but don't kill him with your good intentions.

  • @Sideshowbobx

    Excuse you, but we humans encroach upon the wild habitat and destroy it more so than the other way around. I feel sorry for the farmer, but you mentioned too bad on the ban of hunting, not the ban on defending your life if an elephant attacks. Big difference!

  • GUYS STOP HATIN

  • @goshinjujitsuwales : Yeah, old age does that to someone dumbass. Thus is fucking years ago, and he's the greatest archer in modern history, stfu troll

  • @goshinjujitsuwales troll.

    he was the best archer of the last century!

  • @goshinjujitsuwales troll.

    

  • Its Howard Hill... the archery legend. RIP

  • omg!!! my freinds grandpa has the same boadhead he used on the elephant!! that style is illeagal now because it had 2 barbs at the end so it would stick in the animal. but i swear on my life it is that very sdame broadhead

  • The sound quality of this video is mind boggling.

  • I wish they hadn't edited in the fake elephant sounds and that bullshit charge after the second shot.

  • @clocwirkoj : Them Hollywoods right?

  • this is kind of corny i love archery and hunting but this is way to corny. plus him shooting animals trie dto tree and stuff kinda put me off. im more of a fred bear guy. his stuff doesnt seem as corny. that being said i want to add a hill bow to the collection eventually.

  • will never understand why people insist on putting howard down , he did it all and did it first , yeah there were other great shooters then , todays shooters are imitations of howard , and his bows are the best , why doesn`t all the animals being executed on the outdoor chanell bother anybody ?

  • Not a bad shot for an animal that had already been shot with a gun. If you want to see the real deal, watch some of Bill Negleys vids from the 1960's. He did it without having a guide along shooting a .500 Nitro.

  • @Dutch35611 hey dutch what proofs you it it is shot with a gun and not with the bow

  • what a asshole - i wish i could kill this dude with my bow -- what a shame killing for fun -- what a pussy howard fuck u idiot !

  • @chris16june - I have the full movie. Hill shot the elephant on request of a tribal chief because it went rougue and was killing villagers. Africans do the same thing. Baka pygmies in Cameroon (whom i have lives among) will kill an elephant for meat, but do not poach them for profit (ivory).

  • @chris16june

    to be fair everything is used in africa. that elephant more tehn likly feed a whole village. in africa if the animal has no financial value they are useless and shot off. one reason elephants came back was do to hunters paying money to hunt them.  according to guides in africa

  • @misterman463 : You're a fucking asshole, how DARE you disrespect the greatest archer that lived in this modern century! This is was a long time ago before these animals were outlawed to hunt, so just stfu you ignorant cunt.

  • what do u mean i didnt comment on that at all im barley on youtube maby i left my acount open and someone commented on it cuz it wasnt me

  • The reaction of the animal was surely edited. I admired Howard Hill for his skill with a bow, he is still considered by many the best archer of all time, but he also holds the record for most species killed. Everything from elephant to snakes. I don't really see the point in it now, but then again the attitude towards hunting purely for sport was much different then. So I think it would be silly to judge him.

  • So... my question is, what the hell do you do with a 10,000 pound elephant after you have killed it lol...

  • @Modern1995 Unless the tribe nearby is Muslim they will take the meat gladly.

  • woouu what a shoot ,I´ve never seen that hunt like that it looks so exciting and the elephant reaction is incredible

  • Male or "Bulls" regularly go into "must" which is the condition of being ready to breed. When they can not find a mate they become frustrated and will kill anything that crosses their path. Those who are opposed to killing such a beast have never lived in Africa. I wish people would research stuff instead of taking the "helpless, poor defenseless animals "side right away. Plus the meat all goes to natives who otherwise cannot legally kill game themselves or can't afford it.

  • @kerbouchard73 i too fall into rage when i get blue balls....no one s safe

  • Elephants targets as "killers" are the ones to go into villages destroying farmer's crops and killing villagers in the process....

  • What a beautiful animal.. how cruel...

  • do u feel sorry fpr the wittle ewophant?

  • @fishnkid1923

    I am a bow hunter and I have never seen an animal react like that elephant did it didn't charge, it didn't try to flee it just stood there and let a tool shoot him. You put arrow into an animal its either fight or flight.I suspect that animal was chained and the film doctored ...disgusting.

  • if thats what happened then i agree with you...

  • @djamolodine Everything that fucker kills just happens to be by a tree. yeah, its bullshit.

  • @tooth656 what a beutiful animal yes! yet they hunt humans, they kill people every year, dont be an asshole, we do what every other species do, eat food!

  • the sound of the elephant wasnt even real but i am pretty sure the kill is

  • THE ELEPHANT STORY

    Howard Hill has been asked many times to tell the facts on bagging an elephant with a bow and arrow.

    Following is a list of questions and answers.

    2) How many arrows did it take for all three? 4

    3) How heavy a bow did you use? 115 lbs.

    4) Was this a hand drawn bow? Yes

    5) Did you use an explosive tip or poison on the tip of the arrow? No

    6) How long an arrow did you use? 41" with a special designed broadhead

  • I do not know have not seen the translation of this video I am Brazilian it uses a touch of medieval hunting in a bow of 70 pounds

  • I do not know have not seen the translation of this video I am Brazilian it uses a touch of medieval hunting in a bow of 70 pounds

  • The video describes the elephant as 'the killer'.. Had this bull elephant killed someone?? What poundage did Howard use to shot the elephant??

  • @wwood14 The way the story goes the elephant had killed a few of the people in the village. The bow Howard shot the elephant with was 115 pounds at 28 inches.
