You haven't seen an angry elephant until you've seen this one.
In this video, the creature picks up a bike, flinging it away casually, then does the same to an auto rickshaw, smashing the vehicle as though it were made of cardboard. Next, it goes for a pick-up van and shows no mercy to that either.
An elephant named Devidasan went on a veritable rampage. Part of a festival at the Bhagvathi Temple in Nalussery in Pulappatta, Kerala, Devidasan couldn't be held back by the two mahouts seated on his back.
Fortunately, no one was injured.
