I'm reading Fred Everett's "Heat, Thirst, & Ivory" now. His first elephant, on his own, was at 12 years of age. He talks about learning to aim below the direct charge and let them run into your shot, and it's clear he had multiple chances to test it, and several other high-stress shots out. This video is proof that there are PH's around whose skills and experiences are on a very different level, like a Formula 1 driver or pro football quarterback. Skill beyond our ability or desire to comprehend.
