Loose circus elephant smashes a car and terrifies holidaymakers after being beaten by a handler. This video was filmed in Danish beach town Karrebaeksminde and the shocking footage was captured by Norwegian car salesman tourist Oddmar Nygard, 48, on July 11 who was on a holiday with his family.

Three elephants become agitated after being bathed in the sea in front of a large crowd. The <a href="https://rumble.com/v3musd-elephants-in-pool.html" target="_blank">bathing of elephants</a> in the sea is an annual tradition which is popular with the locals. When circus workers started to lose control, the huge beasts approached onlookers. One of the animals seems very distressed and shows rage after being struck with a metal crowbar by one of the keepers.

This rampaging <a href="https://rumble.com/v30ztr-elephants-on-parade.html" target="_blank">circus elephant</a> smashes a car and terrifies holidaymakers after appearing to be beaten by a handler. The angry animal shows incredible display of brute strength, and lifts up a Skoda Fabia with its tusks. This elephant puts very little effort to push the vehicle up, which shows his amazing strength.

“There were many cars and a lot of people in the street, the elephants probably got a bit stressed by this", says Oddmar. Obviously the elephant got somehow irritated after being hit and started going after the vehicle.

When the car owner tried to reach his car, circus staff stopped him as car windows started to crush and there was a lot of damage in the front of the car.

Many of the witnesses were scared when the situation escalated, even the circus staff, as the animal was out of control. Elephants are massive creatures and nobody knows what they are capable to do when they are distressed.
