A tourist and his girlfriend crouched down in front of a group of elephants in attempt to get a selfie, only for a young elephant to knock them down while their backs were turned.
The pair were part of a group of tourists visiting the Chiang Mai Elephant Sanctuary, a renowned sanctuary and wildlife preserve, on November 17, 2017.
The couple had been warned by a guide not to turn their back on the elephants, especially the young, year-olds, as they are known to be playful and cause mischief.
