Very nice Truck indeed.
On the east-west "highway" going to Royal Belum Rainforest reserve, Malaysia. Wild elephants sometimes cause a bit of highway havoc when they emerge from jungle on one side or the other.
If you hit one, do you get Elephantiasis?
Don't know about that. But if you go into the jungle there are a few "rules" that it's wise to learn well:Quote:

- ground dwelling bees. Small they are, but they are vicious stinging fire from hell and they WILL NOT give up chasing you. If you disturb them on foot you must run like the wind directly at and through the thickest scrub you can find. If in a vehicle speed winding-up of windows is an art to perfect. (Note to self - Defender electric windows in front are too slow!)
- stinging insects from bees to large wasps love salty liquids. Sweat! In humid jungle heat is ever present and attracts said insects. As does urine so lazy arse blokes who don't go a respectable distance from camp to pee need electrocuting.
- that cute little harmless looking green snake in the tree, that looks a lot like the harmless green tree-snakes of oz - isn't. They kill more humans in the jungle than Cobras
Thanks Neil. That's enough adventure of me today.
I received this in an email yesterday:Quote:

These photos are from Feb. 17 by someone from Centurion in Pilanesberg Game Reserve, South Africa.
The guy in the car was trying to get past the elephant!
