Video: Arnold Schwarzenegger gets charged by elephant

Arnold Schwarzenegger is jumping in on the conversation about protecting animals, but he's probably the only person not talking about Harambe the gorilla.

The actor and former governor posted a video of an elephant charging at him during a safari.

He wrote, "I couldn't have written this safari encounter better if it was a movie."

He admitted that "some" people in his jeep were scared, though he didn't say if he was one of them, writing, "I'm absolutely in awe of these beautiful, strong animals, even though some of us had to change our pants after this."

Though the terrifying video is enough to make anyone scared for their lives, Schwarzenegger says people need to protect the formidable animals.

"We need to stop killing them - take a photo, not a shot," he said. "Would you rather be able to experience these creatures or a hunk of ivory? I thought so."
