Vulnerability!

I am yet to feel more vulnerable than that of when a male african elephant in musth decides that your microscopic vw citi golf is an object at which to charge. I swear he could hear my heart beating loud and clear. There is a fine line between sitting and letting him explore you and (hopefully) pass on by, and turning on the car and speeding off (which can indeed make it worse by spooking him).

 

In the presence of the elephants, you truly feel powerless but in absolute awe.
