The gents try to splash water in the elephant's direction, quickly realising it's not working, and rush to jump out of the pool. One of them shouts "Voetsek!" at the elephant as it barely misses him with its great trunk.
Luckily, the men escaped unharmed, leaving the elephant in the pool. The elephant then relieves itself in the water and the men return with backup to help them chase the elephant away.
