Watch: Pilanesberg elephant rocks but does not roll

A game ranger and tourists were left petrified after an elephant attack in a national park.

An elephant gave tourists a big scare when it recently tried to overturn a game-viewing vehicle at Pilanesberg National Park.

In a video that has gone viral on social media, an angry elephant is seen approaching a game-viewing vehicle, pushing it backwards and then lifting it into the air with its trunk.

It then lifts the vehicle again, while the driver shouts at it, trying to get it to back off.

Eventually, the elephant gives up and walks away, leaving the game-viewing vehicle occupants terrified.
