If a massive elephant came charging at you, would you just stand there? Well watch one brave man’s reaction.
Yes, that man stood there, and simply raised his hand, and that’s not all.
After an animal that could weigh up to 14,000 pounds charges at him, the man takes photos, and then turns around and smiles at the camera.
According to Daily Mail, the man is Tor Dowling. He was in Thailand at the Phu Luang Wildlife Sanctuary when his friend caught the charging elephant on video.
Although the incident reportedly occurred back in February, the footage has only recently made the rounds on the internet. News outlets are commenting on the man’s bravery.
Business Insider called Dowling ’the calmest man on earth' and asked, “What sorcery is this?”
New York Daily News deemed him the ‘elephant whisperer’. Dowling told the outlet he’s trying to maintain a positive attitude in life, which is why his response is a few laughs instead of a few screams.
Dowling said, “I don’t need to (think of things) as bad memories. So i smile to make it a good situation...But I’m sure it didn’t want to hurt me.”
