We like to think of elephants as being gentle giants that do nothing except sleep and eat all day long. However, this isn't exactly accurate. On the contrary, elephants do sometimes get mad, and when this happens, they destroy pretty much everything in their path.

For instance, it was this past weekend, on Saturday, that an elephant living in the Khao Yai National Park in Thailand decided to climb on top of a car, just to blow off some Steam. Needless to say, the pachyderm ended up crushing the vehicle.

Luckily for us, the incident was caught on camera. The video is available below, but be warned, the good part starts about 36 seconds in. True, the footage is rather blurry, but it's still clear as day that the car is not having the time of its life. If you listen carefully, you might even hear it crying out for help.

Wildlife experts say that the male elephant that destroyed this car most likely did so because it was in the mood for romance, and since no lady was anywhere in sight, it was feeling a tad frustrated. The same elephant is believed to have damaged two trucks and a cab towards the beginning of the month.
