Falling off an elephant...(that sounds like it should be a 'saying' or something)
sorry, slow news week this week, just found this flicking through a few photo's. this was taken in Kuala Gandah Elephant Reserve in Malaysia this summer...great photo if for no other reason than tam's digital camera was awful and took about 5 seconds to take a picture...this one was supposed to be a picture of me ON the elephant...as with most things in life, timing is everything...

Wow... must've been a Jumbo splash! ;D
you sayin i'm fat??? ;-)
or is that possibly the worst pun ever ever??
hahahaha... glad to have made your day!
Yup, nice splash! quite an acrobtic act....
btw, Kuala Gandah Elephant reserve??? i have never heard of this place.
take the highway towards kuantan (highway 8?) after about 2 hours ish there is a turn off...ill find out which one. then through the jungle for a bit...its a great place, basically, its a working sanctuary, if for example, there is a wild elephant in the jungle somewhere, it can be a danger to people, and you cannot simply move it, so you call this sanctuary, they send out the senior elephants, these are trained to guide wild elephants onto a truck or something, you need two as you need one either side of the wild elephant, the wild elephants are taken to the sanctuary and calmed down and re-released into the jungle...and you get to feed and ride the senior ones at the sanctuary...great place
ok, thanks for the comprehensive details. am impressed!!! quite place it seems. hope to check it out someday....
you should...who ever you are...where else are you able to put your hand and half of your arm into an elephants mouth???!!
Orrissa it is!
so, i can imagine the venture being at close proximity with an elephant....
uber close! you haven't lived until half of your arm in inside an elephants gob! its the weirdest sensation!
