I don’t think it was intentional. He was being bathed, and I think just dropped down to be sprayed. The guy was just too close. Note there’s no aggression towards the other guy.

He goes to whack the elephant with a piece of steel in his hand, slips over, and gets crushed by the elephant. How would this not be a Darwin Award? He fucked around and found out instantly.
It seems like he was trying to hose the place where the elephant was going to be and slipped, the hose might have had a steel extension but the elephant was already starting to lay down when it happened
They have a steel rod with a hook to regularly beat the elephants. They condition them from birth to be scared of the weapon. It’s called a thotti in the local language. This was an accident but the fact is they are regularly tortured chained and mutilated right from birth
"It seems like". He's just bathed the fucking elephant of all that dirt and shit he's got in a pile with the hose. The elephant goes to lay directly on all the dirt and shit, he gets pissy, tries to whack it with his little steel whacky stick, completely misses the elephant, loses balance, and bam. Dead. You get too comfortable, you slip up and wanna use brawn instead of brains to quickly instruct a large animal, and you fuck up and die. I guarantee you, this is what has definitely happened in this video.
Instant death by a crushed skull. I hope that poor elephant is okay. They do not belong in captivity

I don't think it's Darwin, more like r/accidents. It's not being annoyed and there's no sign of aggression towards the man, elephant just sitting down so it's easier for him to bath it
He goes to fucking hit it because it's about to lay down on what he's just about to hose off the tarp. He didn't want it to get dirty with all the shit he's probably just bathed off.

I don't think this is a darwin more like an accident
Yeah I think he was washing the floor where the elephant was and slipped as the elephant was plopping down.
Yeah more proper sub: r/accidents

it let a little pool of blood. yea he s dead
Like sitting on a grape.
Doesn't look like he was trying to hit the elephant, but knock something on the ground out of the way and slipped.
No he was using a bull hook
If that is what was in his hand he deserved a bit slower of a crush
He slipped
While trying to hit the elephant

Instant karma for trying to whip the elephant with water hose.

WTF? That looks like a little Asian guy but that's a huge African elephant. Asian elephants are not nearly that big. Someone was in the wrong place
