Rejected! Watch as elephant male's mating attempt is disrupted with diarrhoea: poor guy

Ordinarily, "that awkward moment when" is a line used to describe unfortunate social moments in human interaction.

Who would have thought that nature would 'call' twice in one space for this male elephant when a routine mating session was disrupted...when a stream of diarrhoea flowed out at a crucial moment? Poor guy.

Watch the funny moment shot by Quintin van der Merwe while taking guests on a tour at the Sabi Sand Private Game Reserve adjacent to the Kruger National Park in Mpumalanga.
