Elephant attacks subcompact in a Safari in South Africa in December... Now, from what I see, the couple seem to creep up on him, stop and then they don't reverse...and then the elephant turns around and flips the car like a toy.
Elephant was put down.

An elephant that attacked a car in a South African safari park in December, piercing a British schoolteacher with its tusks in the process, was put down by the park for behaving aggressively.
The teacher and her fiancé were driving through Kruger National Park when an elephant walking down the path next to the car turned around and flipped it over, apparently trampling it after the video cuts out. The event was filmed by tourists in the next car, who escaped unharmed.
The elephant concentrated on the back of the car, so both passengers escaped relatively unharmed. Sarah Brooks was stabbed in the thigh by the elephant's tusk. She and her fiancé were both briefly hospitalized and released. But the park's general manager, William Mabasa, said the elephant's behavior was too aggressive, suggesting it was "on musth," a cyclic condition where testosterone levels rise.

Video on the site doesn't work, but I found a youtube video that may be what should be on the site.
<- is that it? Apparently the elephant got killed after this happened. Which kind of pisses me off... He/She's a wild animal, of course its going to protect itself if it thinks the car is a threat ....

I think I may have found the problem.

I feel bad for the elephant. I'm sure it was all fun and games till they got the tusks. I'm sure the elephant gave them ample warning that it was stressed.

Wait..... so the people filming leave when they see the Elephant attack those people!?!??!?!?(fucking do something! honk your horn/drive up/distract the elephant)

yeah, let me creep up on this elephant, and then when I see it turn around, let's just sit there...
You bust a u-ey, and roll out.
And the people in the other car...man, those are some cowards.

As usual, human is at fault. The elephant gave the driver plenty of time to get away. Plus he drove too close in the first place.
What reasoning is there behind putting it down? I mean all wild animals - including humans - are going to protect themselves if you threaten them like that. It's not a domesticated violent pet.

WTF poor ''testosterone'' gets the blame for everything in life :-\ :'( :-\

Testosterone is to blamed for all fights including the World Wars.
Mary Jane on the other hand is a peacemaker.

I thought the elephant should have sex with the car after defeating it.

The exhaust will be too small for the penoris.

What a fucking joke. Why shoot a majestic animal like an Elephant. If people are going to try and get close to wild animals, they deserve everything they get. I am only sorry the elephant didn't kill the fucking lot of them!

:D

Defenitley on the higher side of natty

Stupid People visit gameparks and think Africa animals are like they are in the fucking "lion king"
I'm surprised more dumb tourist arn't killed on a regualr basis, maybe they are and we just don't hear about it..

I had a chance to spend a while in Zimbabwe a while back and spent some time on Hwange in the west. The park managers have a vested interest in shit NOT happening to the tourists, so your guide always had a rifle capable of taking an elephant handy.
And ever since the international ivory ban, the trophy tax revenue from hunters has plummeted, leaving parks unable to keep anti-poaching programs up. The black rhino was eradicated in Hwange because of the loss of elephant trophy taxes.
And, there are 10s of thousands of elephants, all competing for the same scarce resources. They are stressed and violent. The park frequently has to have massive culls to keep the place sane.
All because of a hunting ban.
