Attracting Admiration

His display of heroism astounded each and every person who saw the video. And Some of them went on to admire the outstanding guide by leaving their comment. Whereas some comments admired the bravery of McSmith, some made hilarious comments and some doubted the bravery of man completely. Check out the next slide to find out how people reacted to it and which comment matches your opinion.

Respect Increased

Raymon Dez, a YouTube viewer commented on the valor shown by McSmith “The elephant respected the man more when he stood his ground while remaining calm versus screaming and running. He even tried him a few more times but the man still remained calm and showed he wasn’t a threat, but not willing to just sit there either by waving his arms. They both go on to live another day. Moral of the story is it’s not what happens to you, but it’s how you react that determines the outcome.”

Trick To Tame

Jeffery Dykes another YouTube viewer shared some valuable knowledge in the comment box “As a former elephant keeper, I know that when they typically charge, you don’t run – you actually take a step forward. It blows their mind that instead of running, you’re actually advancing on them. They think that your kung-fu must be REALLY strong, or else you’d be running, so it puts that doubt in their mind and they stop their charge.” I am sure by now, you must have got very excited to watch the video, your wait is almost over as you are very close to the video which will give you an adrenaline rush.

A Bouncer Or An Elephant?

While there were some who appreciated McSmith there was also a group of viewers who made some really funny comments. A viewer going by the name Werty commented “I tried the same technique with a bouncer while I had a good whiskey drunk going. Sadly, he did not respect the laws of the jungle.” Well, it seems Werty got highly inspired by the act of Alan and wanted to try it on anyone coming across. But choosing a bouncer for the execution of this act is quite questionable, don’t you think so?

Giving A Record-Breaking Run

KaptKan1 a viewer made us count the benefits of being confronted by an elephant by commenting “If I were charged by an elephant I’d break the world’s record for the two mile run” Not just that there was a viewer Bee Zava who got reminded of Usain Bolt after watching this video. He Commented “Dafuq! I would run like Usain Bolt.” There is always a silver lining and very few people notice it. These viewers definitely did that.

Set Up?

There were also some who called the whole scenario shown in the video a drama. One of them was Tom Hardy. He commented, “and behind him..20 tanks and 35 commandos with bazookas.”One more viewer named Boris Malinović commented “Elephants eat plants! This is a demonstration of power for the uneducated people.” It was not the end there were many more and one viewer went ahead by calling it a pre-planned setup.
