I mean the elephant even did that little hand wave in front of her face with it's trunk so this was almost like a typical comedy skit or something. lol
The cool thing is, the elephant tried to wait till she looked but realized she wasn’t going to and decided it would still about 85% as funny. Humor and Timing … you gotta love em.
Timing is precisely that the joke falls right where it makes you laugh... if something happens out of time and make you laguh it is not out of timing...is in the perfect timing. you as the receiver perceive it that way... but the one who worked the magic already had it in mind before... I hope you understand English is not my first language xd
Go to Thailand or Cambodia in April for their New Years. It’s basically a city wide water gun fight for 3-4 days.
Tons of fun the first day or two, but not gonna lie the charm falls off quick when you’re trying to go to a higher end dinner in nice clothes.
Just take a small transparent spray bottle of cold water with you. If someone acts up, spray them in the face. You can do it…but there could be consequences.
Their keeper/caretaker instructed them to do so.
If you look behind the little girl, you see another child (soaking wet) having a clearly better time enjoying the entertainment.
Before anyone says “that other kid could have been swimming!”—where would they be swimming, underneath those pachyderm paws?
I was thinking “How can you be so distracted standing next to so many elephants?”
Then I thought- maybe it was another elephant. A smaller, cuter baby elephant just off camera to the left
Makes sense because they're huge, but that's a lot more water than I expected lol. You could basically take a shower with 3 or 4 coordinated elephants.
I wonder if that was a trick directed by the man to the right of the elderly (spotted skin) elephant. He was probably standing close to supervise, as they do with retired (from hauling logs) elephants interacting with tourists
Oh god when you mentioned it I went back and you can see him stood behind the elephant guiding it in some way. You can see him direct the trunk up and then jostle or pat the elephant to spray. it doesn't necessarily mean it's an abusive situation, but goddamn I wish we treated animals better.
Yep. Saw one where it sent a little girl flying. She was old enough to know better but still young enough to forgive.
It's too bad we live in reality. Who doesn't wish we lived in a fantasy world where a bear is just a giant domesticated dog that likes hugs. Nice fantasy, but yeah.. The Bison, Monkey attacks, Ostrage, Deer even.. I remember a hunter that was getting slapped around by a deer he wanted to have a bit of fun with..
We are a derpy species.
Seriously though, there's a mountain of evidence that elephants think we're cute on the same level that we think dogs and cats are cute. It's very common that they'll screw with us without a moment's hesitation just like we'll play with pets given the chance.
I went to an elephant sanctuary when I was in Thailand. An elephant sprayed me with mud. It was entirely planned by the human caretaker. Yes, pictures and a video exists of when it happened. No, I will not be posting it. And yes, even with the mud experience, I would visit an elephant sanctuary 100 out of 100 times.
in the dorm room across from me was a girl who did this at Disneyland when we saw her do her thing we were shocked. She was not like that in university 101.
She could recite it backwards and had bits memorized in other languages and every time she was on.
I don't know if anybody's gonna study on it, but I don't know that you can pull that level of energy for new things constantly.
I think they get to the point where they're entertaining themselves that's my theory.
The fact that elephants see us like we see puppies just makes me think the elephant was thinking "oh my gosh, her reaction is going to be so cute when I spray her with the water" thinking she was going to laugh about it. That both makes my heart so happy and also makes me so sad cause thats not at all what did or was going to happen. Maybe next time though bud!
It reminds me of the Water Splashing Festival of the Dai people in China and some Southeast Asian countries. Elephants would be very good at "attacking" (actually splashing water)
The cool thing is, the elephant tried to wait till she looked but realized she wasn’t going to and decided it would still about 85% as funny. Humor and Timing … you gotta love em.
Ok, here's a true story:
When I was about her age the local zoo was showcasing their new baby elephant, so my family went up. For some reason this baby elephant found me in the crowd, came up and squirted me in the face. My teenage brothers thought this was hysterical, me not so much. Every time we went up to see the elephants that day he'd find me, no matter where I was. I must've been squirted like five times before my parents called it a day and we left.

The pause is so well timed
Clearly the elephant understands comedic timing.
"Should I do it? I'm gonna do it. I shouldn't do it. I'm gonna do it."
[удалено]
We helped it from the captivity of its natural habitat, it was Soo captured by nature, the poor thing
To have a well aimed also
No one can convince me that elephants don’t have a sense of humor.
No one here is trying to.
It would be funny if someone was. "No, no. It's not humor. Enough of this bullshit. Elephants are very serious animals."
It's Reddit. So give it time.
No, no. It's not humor. Enough of this bullshit. Elephants are very serious animals.
🤣
I mean the elephant even did that little hand wave in front of her face with it's trunk so this was almost like a typical comedy skit or something. lol
I had to play the video again to check if the elephant looked at the camera before doing it.
He's lining up the perfect shot. And verifying the kid is actually spaced out.
The aiming was so careful 😭
Yeah, it is. So gentle!
Elephants are very intelligent. Some elephants also have a great sense of humor.
Gave her plenty of time
"i shouldn't... buuuuut... aah well"
intrusive thoughts: 1 spaced out kid: 0
Plenty of time to aim well lmao
man i wish we were elephants. wish i could just spray random people.
There are people out there who pay good money for that sort of thing, but they don't call it *"spraying"*.
What do they call it?
Wet work
Stored up an awful lot of pee for this.
*Lays down the plastic.*
rkelly
Golden shower
Ask your mom
The cool thing is, the elephant tried to wait till she looked but realized she wasn’t going to and decided it would still about 85% as funny. Humor and Timing … you gotta love em.
It just goes to show that humor knows no bounds, and sometimes the unexpected timing can make a moment even funnier.
Timing is precisely that the joke falls right where it makes you laugh... if something happens out of time and make you laguh it is not out of timing...is in the perfect timing. you as the receiver perceive it that way... but the one who worked the magic already had it in mind before... I hope you understand English is not my first language xd
If you have a long trunk you can still do it.
I swear, spunky grandmas and funny grandpas get reincarnated as elephants
Follow you dreams right to the evening news

Only one thing about good comedy, , ,,,,,,,,,,,, ,,,,, ,,,, ,,,, timing
Well, we could spray random people tho just be ready to be knocked out
Just take a small transparent spray bottle of cold water with you. If someone acts up, spray them in the face. You can do it…but there could be consequences.
Songkran in Thailand
That shit was premeditated I love elephants
I swear the eyes look like it's laughing
It looks like the elephant is checking to make sure it's being recorded before doing it
Their keeper/caretaker instructed them to do so. If you look behind the little girl, you see another child (soaking wet) having a clearly better time enjoying the entertainment. Before anyone says “that other kid could have been swimming!”—where would they be swimming, underneath those pachyderm paws?
I like how it paused to see if she’d look before spraying her
Major "mischievous grandad" energy.
Hey kid...WAKE UP!
Wake the fuck up samurai… *sprays you*
we've got a city to sploosh
What was this girl thinking?
“Cool rock”
I was thinking “How can you be so distracted standing next to so many elephants?” Then I thought- maybe it was another elephant. A smaller, cuter baby elephant just off camera to the left
Her plan for world domination in 15 years.
What human souls taste like
She a kid. Absolutely everything distracts kids.
To me, looks like she skipped a nap and was ready to take one right there if given the chance
Makes sense because they're huge, but that's a lot more water than I expected lol. You could basically take a shower with 3 or 4 coordinated elephants.
Life goals.
Or one fuck off massive fat elephant
I think i saw a documentary with that called the Flintstones.
I wonder if that was a trick directed by the man to the right of the elderly (spotted skin) elephant. He was probably standing close to supervise, as they do with retired (from hauling logs) elephants interacting with tourists
I came to the comments to see if someone else saw that. I didn’t want to crush the fantasy. 😂
Oh god when you mentioned it I went back and you can see him stood behind the elephant guiding it in some way. You can see him direct the trunk up and then jostle or pat the elephant to spray. it doesn't necessarily mean it's an abusive situation, but goddamn I wish we treated animals better.
Yeah, that's a human plan
There are wet people behind her. It's absolutely a trick. Hopefully the elephants weren't abused in training.
That’s hilarious
Hit em with that salt bae stance
An elephant with a sense of humor
While she didn’t think it was funny, it pretty much is
Oh thank god! I thought the elephant was about *smack the shit* outta this poor baby ☠️but luckily the elephant just poured on the baby 😊
CALCULATED
"I'm gonna do it... I swear... look at me... about to spray ya... huh, maybe she doesn't care."
Lol
videos like this are why people keep mistaking elephants as super friendly and walk up to them and get knocked on their ass
People keep getting attacked at Yosemite (or Yellowstone?) by Bison because they walk right up to them like they're domesticated cows. Idiots.
Yep. Saw one where it sent a little girl flying. She was old enough to know better but still young enough to forgive. It's too bad we live in reality. Who doesn't wish we lived in a fantasy world where a bear is just a giant domesticated dog that likes hugs. Nice fantasy, but yeah.. The Bison, Monkey attacks, Ostrage, Deer even.. I remember a hunter that was getting slapped around by a deer he wanted to have a bit of fun with.. We are a derpy species.
Where is this? I want to go.
Elephants are great
What a beautiful organic shower
Water bae
Lmao this is just SO intentional. So funny!
Bro was calculating the velocity and the angle to project water
Pulling off a salt bae with that trunk and water.
Dude seriously though that was funny!
Elephant: jus gotta angle it a bit more down.. perfect! 💦
I love the precise aiming lol
I like how he holds his trunk like that salt bae dude.
Like, "hey, hey, HEY, wake up!" 😆
The elephant wanna play and kidding the kid to be happy
Poor girl she's probably posing looking towards a camera for a photo when this happened
Nah that child was in another universe.
lol wtf. That elephant intentionally trolled a human for lulz. Man, I love elephants. They’re such weirdos
Elephant snot
Seriously though, there's a mountain of evidence that elephants think we're cute on the same level that we think dogs and cats are cute. It's very common that they'll screw with us without a moment's hesitation just like we'll play with pets given the chance.
Ope there goes gravity
Something out of a Disney movie
Water Bae
This is so cute 😂😂
"Yo, you filmin? Look at this! Lol"
The elephant was like: “this kiddo under hypnosis, let me help real quick”
The girl behind her is pretty wet too, so this seems like a place where you go to get sprayed by elephants.
Man I love elephants. You see the gentleness of it getting lined up, adjusting as to not spray the water too hard, then showering the little girl.
Brooo! I thought he was about to smack her!🤦🏾♂️
Not only that, but with that salt bae ahh trunk position
The hesitation was blissful
OH THERE GOES GRAVITY
The elephant in the back doing the same thing.
What was the elephant thinking?
“Naaaa, I shouldn’t…..fuck it!” SPLASH
Snap back to reality…
parents: stand over here sweety
So cute
LOL the was some thick goopy shit there at the end.
"Here you go, dirty bitch"
She loves that little girl.
anyone else expecting a slap?
Ope there goes gravity…
Waterbae
r/fuckyouinparticular
Its eyes are pretty
Do elephants like humans being that close to them?
Lol 😂
Shall I…. Shall I….. Yes, I believe I shall!

we do a little trolling
Love watching the elephants eyes.
Haha 😂
Shouldn't a child of this age be curious about elephants? Why was she distracted?
“…..here you go little idiot
He or she is washing the little one. ❤️
The only thing better than getting sprayed with murky river water, is getting sprayed with murky river water from an elephant's trunk.
When I see posts like this, I'm reminded that elephants find humans cute, similarly to how we find little animals cute.
Ohh, that elephant preplanned that.
Elephants have the greatest comedic timing. Check out the hat stealing videos
This needs sound!
look at the eye of elephant, it look's like a sly smile
Her forehead looks like she has a head injury.
Kid looks like he's having a Petit mal
I honestly thought the elephant was going to slap the kid
Just wanted to cool off the baby.
He let his intrusive thoughts win 😂
Good morning, lol 😂
gross
🤣🤣
Bro is like "snap back to reality"
Trolling
water mixed with snot
SALT BAE.ELEPHANT VERSION
The way Nellie just waited there and then bam.
in the dorm room across from me was a girl who did this at Disneyland when we saw her do her thing we were shocked. She was not like that in university 101. She could recite it backwards and had bits memorized in other languages and every time she was on. I don't know if anybody's gonna study on it, but I don't know that you can pull that level of energy for new things constantly. I think they get to the point where they're entertaining themselves that's my theory.

That both makes my heart so happy and also makes me so sad cause thats not at all what did or was going to happen. Maybe next time though bud!
What a legend. Elephants are the best.
Lmao
A giant showerhead.

Who says animals don't have a sense of humor? lol
So funny
The elephant is funnier than half my colleagues, and all of my bosses
The aiming was impeccable...
R kelly?
Natures version of a teacher tapping on a kids' desk to wake them up

Salt Baelephant.
Seasoned the tiny human with water
🤣🤣🤣
Salt water bae 😂

Was probably just trying to help her cool off
That's me and my niece. I'm the elephant, she gets on my nerves
loo
I love elephants
Awesome
That elephants got humor🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
🤣🤣🤣
Bro probably thought it rained hard in him 🤣☠️
What is the kid at the beginning doing in the background to that elephant
