Very impressive, this man is either very brave or very stupid.
Thanks for sharing this one!
Nice to see something shot with a camera, as opposed to the rifle!
Regards Rodders

this man is either very brave or very stupid.

Bit of a toss up that one.

I reckon the elk thought he was so stupid that it was a waste of horn to run him through!

I can't believe that the motorists were more intent on filming him being run through on camera for you've been framed rather that put their vehicle between man and beast. Hope they're not there to help if I'm ever in need.

Anyone that stupid should be videoed for the Darwin Awards and hopefully have hs genes removed from the cycle?

They were probably thinking of the "bigger picture", remove him from the gene pool and the whole of mankind is better off!

A man is drowning. You can either rescue him or photograph the event. Which F-Stop do you use?"

I did wonder if the elk saw the tripod as antlers & thus a challenge!

I wondered the same, perhaps he thought he was a relative, his actions seemed more playful than outright aggressive.

Rubbish. Complete fake. Anyone can see it's just 2 blokes dressed as a pantomime horse!! They've got the hump coz the guy didn't buy a programme. You could even hear the people in the other cars shouting..."It's behind you!"

 

[Grahamshed]

Ahh, that explains it then.
