The filmer explained the passenger, an Irish tourist, had been instructed by the driver to throw the food in a bid to get the elephant to clear the street, but he misunderstood and hand-fed the wild animal instead. "The elephant turned over the tuk tuk and took out all his bags searching for food. Must be the luck of the Irish that he wasn't injured," the filmer wrote.
