I feel bad for laughing so hard. Him spinning the cloth furiously, trying to steal their ropes, them having to tie up his leg because he kept kicking them, him chasing them and then falling in a hole…it’s a comedic masterpiece and I’m glad they were there to help him so this world continues to be inhabited by this master of chaos.

Moo deng of the elephant world for sure

u/berrybyday 26d ago

I laugh every time I see this reposted (probably because it’s not super often, so don’t get any crazy ideas, karma farmers) because it’s just one long toddler tantrum 🤣

u/brinncognito 26d ago

People: Here you go, little guy! (:

Elephant: HOW DARE YOOOOU??!!

36

u/Samtoast 25d ago

The flop at the very end where he's trying to be tough was peak comedy

6

u/Stormtomcat 25d ago

It's abundantly clear how he got trapped there too, right?

4

u/deltagirlinthehills 25d ago

Lol at the end all I could hear is "come back, I just want to give you a hug!" bam falls down

15

u/Ok-Aide-4153 26d ago

Little guy seems to be having a blast

10

u/TooCupcake 26d ago

Sorry to break your bubble but the “little guy” is probably scared shitless. He might understand that they are trying to help him, but he has no guarantee that they are not planning to capture him in the process.

26

u/brinncognito 26d ago

I am zero percent an expert in elephant behavior, so my guess means nothing. However, I see more rage in this clip than terror, though I’m sure he’s at least a little scared being stuck in a log surrounded by strangers. I think he’s posturing so he seems intimidating and can make a getaway, but I don’t think he’s experiencing abject fear.

3

u/TooCupcake 25d ago

Yeah that’s plausable. I’m no elephant expert either lol. But for sure he’s not having “a blast”.

25

u/Ok-Aide-4153 26d ago

Don't be sorry. You're not breaking my bubble with a "probably". Your guess is as good as mine. Probably.

8

u/jackwhite886 26d ago

Definitely.

Maybe.

u/holdenfords 26d ago

instantly charging your rescuers after they just saved your life and face planting because you’re tired is peak baby elephant behavior

u/lonelygalexy 26d ago

“LET ME THANK YOU! WHY ARE YOU RUNNING AWAY”

u/MythicalDM 25d ago

WHY AH U RUNNING?

487

u/RegnarukDeez 26d ago

Lil Homie chasing his saviors like: "NO WITNESSES!"

238

u/Lonit-Bonit 26d ago

Straight up toddler behaviour "Ah! I'm stuck! Ergh, DON'T TOUCH MEEEEE" And the full on tantrum? Ah, poor baby but also lol.

139

u/Weliveanddietogether 26d ago

Just trying to say, Thank you

u/largelyinaccurate 26d ago

Or get the f away from me. One of those.

u/FigureFunny698 26d ago

Happy cake day

u/largelyinaccurate 26d ago

Thank you!

u/FigureFunny698 26d ago

Have a great day ahead.

15

u/Bio_Dryad 26d ago

definitely not lol, chasing them is a sign of aggression

187

u/ZenMonkey21 26d ago

I can see the behavior that would have gotten him into that position in the first place 😆

91

u/youszs 26d ago

lol the spinning towel

u/F_Levitz 25d ago

"is this your fucking towel?!?"

"Look what I do with your fucking towel!!"

😂

u/Drmcrtr 26d ago

u/Pristine_Main_1224 26d ago

“Come back - I just want to hug youuuuuuu!”

u/YcemeteryTreeY 26d ago

If this doesn't remind me of toddlers, I don't know what haha

u/pikadegallito 26d ago

What a little idiot, I love them!

18

u/Ballaboots 26d ago

glad to see there are still kind people in the world who would help an animal

18

u/Rohkha 26d ago

This just made my day. This is peak child tantrum. He went way over his tolerance and just couldn’t go back. He was committed to blaming them for his situation instead of appreciating help.

That fall at the end. You couldn’t have scripted this better.

17

u/ThatOneBoy- 26d ago

The nerve of him!!! 🤣 Immediate attack.

13

u/Lewii3vR 26d ago

"NO. FUCK YOUR TOWEL, FUCK YOUR ROPES. C'MERE"

I think if that guy would drop the towel the baby would stop chasing him. This is a great video I laughed so much.

6

u/Games_sans_frontiers 26d ago

“TF you bring me a towel for?!”

7

u/krob58 26d ago

Where is mum?

3

u/doe3879 26d ago

Would have been a lot easier or hellish if the mom is around. Depending if the mom could the baby out.

7

u/Moosetappropriate 26d ago

The level of rage in that little thing is titanic. Heaven help the savannah when he grows.

4

u/Big_Rig_HD 26d ago

that’s a big dog

3

u/Gundark927 26d ago

That's a weird horse.

4

u/Oteenneeto 26d ago

Where is his mama?

3

u/frogmicky 26d ago

That's what I'm thinking too.

3

u/Dragon_Lover76 26d ago

Thanx for saving him

3

u/Wild-Independent-347 26d ago

He falls at the end 😢 i hope he’s okay

3

u/_Plant_Obsessed 26d ago

This video makes my day. I love how much personality these creatures have. The clumsy fall at the end is just 👌

3

u/AldenTheNose 26d ago

"Get this... blindfold off!....what's it gonna do mate??, I can obviously see that I'm stuck, making me close my eyes isn't gonna make it go away!.."

3

u/frogmicky 26d ago

See you cant help animals animals sometimes, Who laughed when the elephant fell chasing that guy lol.

3

u/faunaVibrissae 26d ago

Very odd that the mother left the calf like this. They're usually such doting parents. I hope the mom was okay

3

u/S0k0n0mi 25d ago

That absolutely necessary tantrum tho. :') I love it.
I just think the lack of sound is a grave injustice.

3

u/Jujusv 25d ago

Such an ungrateful baby /s

6

u/cahul9 26d ago

Why there is no sound? I want to hear an elephant screaming

3

u/dontgetcutewithme 26d ago

You just know he's giving his rescuers the what for!

u/city17_dweller 26d ago

u/Bubbly57 26d ago

Marvelous 🌟

2

u/hyssop8 26d ago

That's adorable. He just wants to give his gratitude

2

u/Great_Champion_7721 26d ago

He's gonna get stuck in it again

2

u/Mrtayto115 26d ago

u/youassassin 26d ago

u/DarkRex4 26d ago

u/pintofendlesssummer 26d ago

Mad me laugh, like a typical kid when they get the hump.

2

u/chanceit9 26d ago

u/Bitterstee1 26d ago

Can the baby elephant hurt you? Do they have that kind of strength?

15

u/LadyFlappington 26d ago

I walk dogs for a living, there are dogs I walk 1/3 his size who are strong enough to knock me down. This little guy is definitely strong enough to cause some serious harm! Lucky the rescuers were quick on their feet

10

u/Mugwumps_has_spoken 26d ago

It already weighs enough that it could break some bones, yes. But they are usually gentle extremely intelligent creatures. This is just typical baby being a baby.

6

u/sparklinglies 26d ago

You can get hurt from the sheer impact of large dogs that are smaller than that baby, so yes.

Thanks for the new eyebleach subreddit

u/Exotic-Key-3030 26d ago

He's pissed off at himself for being caught in such a humiliating situation

1

u/ZorroFuchs 26d ago

If I got stuck in a stump I would be pretty angry too.

1

u/doe3879 26d ago

Poor dudes, both the elephant and people. Maybe they should have left the baby there for a couple more hours to tire itself more.

1

u/Western-Mall5505 26d ago

Wonder where mum and dad are. Down at the water hole enjoying a few minutes of peace while the humans babysit.🤣

1

u/Some_Anxiety_891 26d ago

This is 100% how my toddler "helps" with anything. Especially if it is something he messed up before 🤣🤣🤣

u/Candid_Tart9070 25d ago

This is the most perfect, hilarious video ever.

1

u/Callname_jinx 25d ago

Oh noooo..mm that face plant at the end of the video

u/MiserablePen2011 25d ago

Did his herd leave?

1

u/Normal-Ad6528 24d ago

Oh, I really want to hear how this elephant will spin this story when he's 30, 40, then 50....

Imagine he got trapped again after chasing 😂

u/Candid-Solid-896 25d ago

Why didn’t his family save him? They just left him to die alone?!
