African Elephant Charges our Truck

African Elephant Mock Charges our Truck!!!!
Tarangire, Tanzania

Response to comments:
We were slowly and respectfully driving past the Elephant and were mock charged while i was filming, just thought people might want to see this. Nothing was done (or thrown) only complete and total respect for the amazing African creatures, culture and people. This trip supported only local African operators and wildlife conservation. Peace and tolerance of all world cultures to the haters out there!

i don't get why in almost every video of an ele charging someone, the people laugh. like its not funny invading there home and teasing them like that.

You seriouly shouldn't tease elephants I don't know what kind of idiot thinks it's cool. It's dangerous it's not like teasing cows.

Omg, that was close... You probabily wouldnt be laughing at a charging elephent if you were not in the truck..

@tball82 I assume that they're laughing because they're relieved to be still alive.

@tball82 the tourists spend money when they come to africa to see the wild life. which makes the wild life and wild savana an asset worth preserving and protecting for the african governments. these "invasions of the elephants home" keep the elephants protected. more worth alive than dead, killed for the ivory and meat. nobody teased the elephant. they drove past him on a ROAD (they stay on roads) and the elephant s get used to cars. he wasnt really upset or anything. you get thrilled you laugh.

LEAVE THE ANIMALS ALONE.... NOBODY COMES TO YOUR HOUSE AND MAKES VIDEO AND LAUGHS, ASSHOLES.

It's not a widely known fact but...elephants kill several tourists every year. People are just plain stupid and think their watching a Disney movie or something.

There is a huge difference between 'adrenaline rush' and 'utter stupidity.'

The driver of this vehicle would be well advised to learn the difference between those two before he gets a bunch of tourists killed.
