The Chandaka Elephant Stampede of 1977 | Episode 26

Elephants make a trumpeting sound to indicate excitement, aggression or distress, and it’s loud enough to hear up to six miles away. You know where you don’t want to hear it? Six feet away.

On this episode: we’re going to explore several new ways to die, most of them bloodless; you’re going to find out how to out-smart one of the smartest creatures on the planet; and this will be the second time you’ll hear Kool-Aid Man used as a verb.

We’re going to fly all the way to India again. The last time we were here, we nearly died, a bunch of different ways. But I promise there will be no stairs or coconuts or electricity in this episode. No, we’re going to come face-to-face with a danger you might not expect. You’ll learn how dangerous elephants can be compared to other actual predators.

On any given day, these gentle beasts would be appalled at the idea of hurting another creature, but under all the right circumstances, and you’ll get learn how much they can bench press with their nose. An adult Elephant is capable of lifting up to 600-700 pounds, which is far more than enough force to remove your genitals. So you know, it’s about 110 pounds of force.

Celebrity guests include: billionaire, Tom Siebel; boxer, Mike Tyson; Olympian, Usain Bolt; Kana the Tiger; and three nameless blind men of ancient Indian lore.

THANK YOU. Most shows survive at the whim of production companies and corporate sponsors, built from the top down. Doomsday doesn’t exist because some network exec believes in it – it exists because actual people do. It's built from the bottom up, and it’s been my privilege to bring you these stories. Just you, me, and a microphone.
