Elephants are seldom drunk

A man tried to emulate a scene from a Kannada movie of kissing an elephant - or rather, a drunk man tried to ape a scene from a movie of kissing a wild elephant. The elephant didn't like affection from other species - so the man was almost made into pieces. The man is saved from the rejection with broken heart apart from broken bones. Honorable mention - and a jumbo relief! There is a video and message link attached.

I don't think we've had any stories involving attempting to kiss a wild elephant as of yet so I'm willing to accept this. Thanks!

We've had harassing, trying to pet, trying to put flowers on... but never a kiss! Thank you!
