In the clip shared by @hendryblom, the safari car was driving the visitors around the park when an elephant charged it. The big animal can be seen using its tusk to move the car backwards, it even partly lifted it up while there were passengers inside.

The safari guide person can be heard shouting at the elephant, trying to make it stop its behaviour. However, he seemed to have no luck. No one has been reported injured from the ordeal.
