“Huge respect for the driver of this Government bus in Nilgiris who kept his cool even under the terrifying hits on the bus from an agitated tusker.”
An angry elephant raced at a bus in Tamil Nadu, breaking its windshield, according to a terrifying video. As per the media, the event occurred on Saturday morning as a state-owned bus was transporting government personnel from Kotagiri to Mettupalayam.
A passenger onboard captured footage of the elephant coming towards the windshield and breaking it with its tusks as passengers shouted.
The elephant, not happy with merely breaking the glass, rears its head back, as if ready to strike again. The driver then stands up and herds all of the passengers to the back of the bus.
Supriya Sahu, Principal Secretary, Environment, Climate Change and Forests, Government of Tamil Nadu, posted the video on Twitter, praising the driver for maintaining his calm in a tense circumstance.
Ms. Sahu wrote while uploading the video, “Huge respect for the driver of this Government bus in Nilgiris who kept his cool even under the terrifying hits on the bus from an agitated tusker.”
She added, “He helped passengers move back safely, in an incident today morning. That’s why they say a cool mind works wonders.”
