South Africa - In a stroke of luck a guest at South Africa's Etali Safari Lodge, shot the video of a lifetime. An elephant in a jacuzzi! It was late in the evening and all the bustle had calmed as guests were turning in for the night. One guest was surprised by noise on her patio, going to investigate she found an elephant drinking from the jacuzzi. Fortunately our vacationer had camcorder in hand. She got several minutes of the precarious pachyderm, now named "Troublesome," sucking the tub dry, that's right dry.
Actually that very jacuzzi had been drained several times in the weeks proceeding Troublesomes big debut. Plumbers had been called more than once to resolve the issue only to leave puzzled when no leak could be found.
Susan Potgieter The Lodges owner said: "When I first saw the photograph of her drinking I couldn't believe it. And then it dawned on me of course an elephant was drinking it.
"It was something of a relief because we had been trying to work out why the pool had been draining so quickly for weeks but couldn't find a leak anywhere.
"When it was empty in the morning we first called a plumber, but they could not work out why it was draining either." Read all about it
