This is the hair raising-moment an elephant charges at tourists on safari in South Africa.

Instagram user @tommytr0so spotted the animal heading straight toward his jeep.

The elephant was caught on camera charging at the jeep and following them as they sped away.

A passenger can be heard shouting "uh oh," whilst the filmer is heard laughing in sheer disbelief, as the huge beast chased after them.

The elephant eventually slowed down and stopped following the jeep, meaning the group were able to get away - probably on the edge of their seats.
