Samphran Elephant Ground and Zoo, Nakhon Pathom, Thailand

Well, before everything was started, we were given a treat of magic show. Though the tricks were simple, but they were impressive enough.

The elephant show was next. They did a few parts.

The crowd was definitely impressed.

They had the football session. Yeah, this one called Ronaldo as Ballack was behind. The crowd loved it.

They also did a story telling and how elephant was used in an ancient wars. Check out the fire behind, they were using pyro. No joking.

This were how the elephants look like during battlefield.

End of the elephant show, the crowd gathered and offered food to elephants.

Then we proceeded to the crocodile “wrestling show”. I bet a I saw Macho Man and Hulk Hogan. Probably Batista and John Cena.

This was new. One of the very first new stunts. Sliding towards crocodile to kiss it. Geez.

The guy left something in the mouth? He bravely put his hand into the mouth. Kids, don’t try this at home.

Lastly, the guy put his head within the mouth of the crocodile. It was a great show, combination of elephant and crocodile show altogether. A must visit place for those who were around Nakhon Pathom.
