Elephant close encounter: Toro Yaka Bush Lodge South Africa

lmao

Mictlantecuhtli they had some psychic communication. He prob told him there's still time to cancel the shipping on the gourmet fruit basket 😂

Mictlantecuhtli ,that guy was incredible.I would of freaked the fuck out and ran like a little school girl.

MrLoomis42 you are a schoolgirl.

Yes,yes I do.

Or: "Aw, who's a good human? Yes you are! Yes you are!"^^ No really, elephants think humans are cute.

Ha ha ha ha ha

Hahaha

🤣🤣🤣

😂😂

i love you 😍

🤣

Perfect. 🤣

Cucumber not so cool. Ice is cooler than cucumber

@@abhijitsarmah6700 cool as a cucumber is a usage to show a cool behaviour

@@mrshaftla why can't we say cool as ice?

They are not so gentle when a young bull kills an old male with a tusk up the ribs. I've seen this on vid.

He's curious and like a scientist he's trying to probe and feel new features that his trunk has never felt before.

that "Who you waving your trunk at? You belong to me" pose...

Javier Lopez w

Man that's just great haha

And u watch way to much tv

More like, "We are only here, nothing else" pose. What is so warlord about sitting and enjoying the company of such a magnificent creature?

Claro se os guias estão espalhados pela África, é claro que ele conhece.

They know 💜

They are cousins

They are friends from work 😂

💀🤣🤣🤣

Ha ha ha

i knew it.. someone will point this.

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Funny enough I thought something similar

+Laurina Steele I have seen a few of these earlier and wondered to myself as to how this could really happen, and have come to realize that all this is some power which i will explain as we go on.I think it was this same African man whom i saw going on a hunt with three of his friends, they only had a spear each and in no other terms they went to hunt for buffalo, into the territory of the LIONS, soon they encountered, with a Pride of Lionesses, that had brought down a massive Buffalo, this same man left his 2 friends behind and walked into the midst of the LIONESSES, who just simply, went back 10 spaces, they did not roar at him nor even felt agitated by his visit they did this like as though they had known him for a very very long time, they basically gave him permission, to take a share for himself and his tribe of people, the man cut out a complete rear thigh part of the freshly killed Buffalo and moved, as he stood up the lionesses acknowledged his going away by a wag of their tails and he left the balance for the LIONESSES to finish off. This Power that i have been talking to you about is the what is actually known as the "Power of the JINN", only a very few people in the world have this and have relentlessly, no scare against them,nor are they a threat to other humans on the contrary they are very helpful people and help others all the time. So if you one day meet one of these people tell him about what ever the problems you may be facing, lots of people meet them to cure themselves off a dreaded illness or wanting to know why is it that they have not ben successful in their jobs or their business, speak to them and i am sure you will certainly find peace within yourself. Thank you yours respectfully feroze "ghaff41@gmail.com"

it wanted a snack

this has nothing to do with what you're claiming it was a massive bull investigating one wrong move and the bull would have killed them all they can spear their tusks through jeeps...

Feroze Ghaffoor - old Bush legends, superstitions - HE IS TRAINED TO READ THE ANIMALS BEHAVIOR and trained how to react - simple as that

Lydia Roselli are you talking about the animals or the poachers ?

Thor Odinson

Wonderful

I’m sure those guides are well experienced

Lucky r u serious

. . . And what the elephant was communicating was . . . "Would you like to live the longest three minutes of your life?"

You probably are, to pay such a compliment

Absolutely the bravest man 👍👍

@@williammunny7133 What a sweet thing to say

" ..... Excellent Tourists!" I was thinking that too. Not just any tourist stay cool in a moment like that. The tension of that silence was as high as the wisdom of everyone there. These people definitely got their money back with just that experience.

Lol! Exactly! I believe you. He was so still...extremely still, that he must be still there!

just brilliant

A measure of peace between a human and a creature of nature.

It's been over 10 minutes and I'm still crying.

Kahe cried 🤔? You rather appreciate the wisdom of Jungle officers and to that wild elephant did behave very well😉

@@ciahart Loader please..✍️😝😝

This is a group of retired bulls that's hung around the area for several years and the local guides have nicknames for all of them. This one is the leader of the group and has a reputation for getting really close to the jeeps. If you check Toro Yaka's Facebook page they recently posted and even "closer encounter"

@@jasoncapell what is the secret behind this? How is it possible?

@@jasoncapell thank you for the input

@@jivart4069 If you view a few elephant encounter videos, you will see a range of behaviors. In this case, the guide clearly knows what to expect with this particular animal. There are other videos where an elephant will not be so gentle. In some cases, the guide will yell at an elephant, slam the car door, or wave a stick to discourage an elephant from coming too close.

@@jasoncapell Thanks for the explanation. So very happy these old boys have a place to go. All blessings for your life among the most gorgeous places on Planet Earth. 🙋🐘🌱💜🙏

Feroze Ghaffoor We live in NAmibia And we work with several of these tribes whom all still practice these arts ! Check out Namibia or close up africa safaris,we can take you to these people , Himbas an San Bushmen !

piet skiet the tusks have value on the black market, and ivory is useful in art and many cultures

@@ShadowJ667 voetsek !

piet skiet sorry if you cant handle the truth. most poachers sell the tusks rather than keep them as trophies. I think its disgusting, just as much as u do, but it is what it is, efforts are made to stop them, which is having success, for example theres an international ban on ivory trade, a lot of parks are also hiring local millitia as well as the guides to patrol the park and watch for poachers

😂😂😂

🤣🤣🤣🤣

That elephant probably knows them. They do this for a living. The elephant was just coming to say Hi and check out who was in the jeep. Maybe also looking to see if they had any food.

Andrew Lewitton where is this?

Lydia Roselli that’s untrue, sure there will have been cases of that but they are very expressive animals and give you plenty of warning before they do anything.

@Lydia Roselli shut the fuck up, karen

How is the driver amazing?😳😳

yes, i believe they have met before...and the scent assured him. Amazing.

Ian Craig lol ok?

This...

Sucking the smell of the guides scrotum more like.

Unltil it starts kicking your and Everybody's ass.

Most unpredictable animal

I wouldn't move either, I'd be bloody petrified to the spot!

His vision is based on movements 😁😁😁😜😜😜

That inly works in movies. Plus, the elephant can still see you

He's the bait.

Thank you yours respectfully feroze "ghaff41@gmail.com"

+Feroze Ghaffoor I know the video you speak of, I have seen it as well. It is a primal truth of our wilder human nature. Modern Man has lost it, forgotten it, has no need for it as they have tamed themselves with eyes glazed over and stomachs rich in fat and mind-altering medications. I realized a hidden clue that most seem to miss in the urban jungle, and that is how domestic dogs behave as their masters. Little Yapper Dogs have no discipline, no calm or reasonable state for which themselves could live by. This is because the heart and mind of their humans is no different, screaming and hyperactive without restraint or discipline of themselves to lead or to command. No good sense resides in many an urban man, no leaders to lead and so no animals could instinctually follow in respect, not even amongst other humans most of the time. That is why The Lion Hunters and The Tourist Guide can sit and walk amongst the most powerful of Predators and Beasts, because they aren't in The Urban Jungle, they're in The Wild Jungle, and so they must be Leaders of all in their space, and so respected by those who can sense this, man and beast alike. This also happens to be why I fear dogs, because I fear their mindless and uncontrollable humans which own that madness, and humans have weapons that no other animals should ever need to possess. {Also, there is a myth/story I once heard as a young child and never forgot about called "The Elephant Kings" of Africa. There was a Tribe/Tribes I'm not sure which, whom would only ever recognize Their King if a Wild Elephant would recognize them first, as sacred and royal kin. It was believed that when Great People Died, their Spirits/Souls would reincarnate as Elephants and Other Great Beasts according to rank, and so hunting them or desecrating their bones was taboo. This way of belief was reinforced greatly by what the Elephants themselves did, for when they were close to death they would go into a Sacred Cave and die there with thousands of others who passed on before them since the cradle of time itself immemorial. Their bones, and their tusks, were one day discovered by Ivory Trade Poachers who began stealing them and selling them on the black market. Naturally this caused many omens and plagues that caused The Tribes great suffering, and quickly led to their end of times as a peoples. The very last of this Tribe was supposedly visited one day by a group of explorers from "The New World", young and naïve as they were, they didn't realize what illegal things were happening until a group of poachers finally attempted to end the life of a Village Elder, who slowly as he was dying of his wounds would not take his last breath so long as the Elephant that recognized him was still drawing breath as well. This last "Great Tusker" was simply the most impressive Bull Elephant ever seen during the final years of their being Elephants in this land, he was as last as the village elder was old. Massive and Powerful, but Very Ancient in Spirit and Wisdom, was so Great this Bull Elephant that every time the Poachers shot and trapped and poisoned him, he'd destroy their vehicles and kill members of the hunting party who couldn't run away fast enough! But the toll of this months-long war was draining and ever-enduring, as more and more young thrill seekers joined the expeditions to hunt this legendary creature, for the fame and glory of its trophy. Finally it came the time to die, and the Elephant having lured the scores of Poachers away from the Sacred Cave for so long, was now due to enter its walls, as the last of his dynasty. Clever and Observant was he, for when it came time, The Elephant approached the Young Explorers in both Dream and Physical Form, and summoned them to learn of his story and of his final tale, as witnesses to his end. He brought them to the cave, and there they learned the history and stories of the Tribes and of The Elephant Kings, drawn on the walls and laid below them in the mounds of bones, where from the depths of the darkness below trumpeted the many calls of the ancestors, rising to meet them in vesper form. It was just then, that the poachers following the footsteps of the Bull Elephant, re-found the well hidden cave, and the final battle ensued there. Using its final burst of might and ancient power, it killed the poachers and thrashed itself upon the walls of the cave, sealing itself forever into the tomb, as both The Village Elder and The Ancient Kings took their final rest forevermore. The Explorers having well-escaped the collapse, swore a vow never to reveal the location of the cave on penalty of curse in the afterlife, but to also tell the story upon their death beds so that in times later a Prophecy may come to pass and be known. It is a Prophecy that one day in the future, that ALL The Elephant Kings Of Africa will exit their ever-watchful slumber to return once again, and revive the African Homeland to its former and ancient Power and Glory, as Great Leaders will be Born and By-Destiny be Found and Brought to Power as Leaders of their many Nations when the World will need them to most! However, before this grand time of awakening and enlightenment will come, very few of The Returning Elephant Kings themselves will appear far and few between as humanity grows and matures in its own wisdom, returning only and individually to guide a path that will one day lead to this greater outcome. It was thought that Nelson Mandela was in unknown secret an Elephant King reincarnated at a time when greatly needed most for not just all of Africa but for the whole world itself to learn such a lesson that was needed. This is also and surprisingly why that Sign-Language Translator who was utterly obsessed with "Seeing Angels" at the funeral, was as because Elephant Ears do after all look a lot like an Angel's Wings!]

Maria João Couceiro He knows the tracker by his smell ,and his feet,they can pick up your track's scent for days after you've been in there area ! ! ! !

piet skiet Yes, I believe so. But even so... It was A moment! ehehehehhe!!!!

AAAHHH yes,,very few things can so completely focus your mind ! ! !

Sure! I WATCHED the film...

NO ,,I mean actually being there,,next to the ellies,,we do that alot in NAMIBIA,,look @ EHRA blogs ,,elephant human relations aid ! ! ! ! ! ! !

yes, they are Very Intelligent..

Feroze Ghaffoor What an amazing man to do that. Thank you for telling all of us about this great man and beautiful elephant named April.

Devout Christian & Lord Jesus alone must have been with Joseph at such an immemorable yet terrifying time.

@@MichElle-sd6gj Lord Jesus doesn't do Safaris...no time for that.

Feroze Ghaffoor, are you sure this is the same elephant and guide? Because this elephant looks like a bull...

loksterization help me understand the difference of an elephant and a bull

1.60? How about 2.0 haha just pulling your leg, have a nice day.

Carlos E I’m dying in hospital

'cause everyone knows humans are the most important species ever in the history of planet Earth. We keep this planet going with carbon dioxide fumes, pollution, killing of animals to eat/save space/ trophies...yeah. How it works I suppose. God himself probably considers us a mistake on his hand.

lmao right? I'd want the elephant to scratch it tbh. "Where did that scratch come from?" "Oh that's from an elephant" Plus, that's a safari jeep, not a Lamborghini or something. Not a big deal if it gets scratched.

no need for insults. We're all the same equality. humans and animals alike. problem is humans don't see it that way.

Jesse King That scene was probably these mens' everyday life lol. You wouldn't like your car to be scratched in an ''everyday'' situation where you live, right? Why would they? Especially if that car is your literal business and your actual livelihood depends on it. You were pretty quick to judge this man while you know very little of him and only see a very specific part of a greater story. In the same way you seem to be judging the hole of humanity while clearly looking only at one side of things, I'm sorry but this is very narrow minded in my opinion. That is not the reality of life though, things can be much more complex than they appear. ..People that can't look at the both sides of a coin will never be able to know what a coin looks like....and if that coin is life...well it's a damn shame.

@Висша сила! Благодаря ти! americans...

Same its super amazing...

Really 👌💗 🇱🇰

Mich Elle Why? Nothing at all happened here. Just an elephant passing through.

naw he was chillin

lol

I only wish there were a market for proven authentic poachers.

Lmao😂😂😂😂😂

Where did you see that happen?

Lol

I damn sure would've
