When a bull elephant comes charging at you, the natural reaction is to start running. These hikers at Kruger National Park in South Africa knew better though, and calmly stood their ground when the huge animal approached them with a roar. A worker at the walking safari, Colin Patrick, later said that if the hikers had backed off, the elephant may have followed through with its charge.
The important thing was to stay calm and not make any sudden movements, which allowed this group to have an unforgettable experience. See more stories and videos on African Safari Sand Tours’ website. Credit: YouTube/Kruger National Park
