That's pretty good, there's normally a little bounce on landing but I didn't see any at all there.

Definitely African judging by the large size of the ears flapping around.

TBH, I don't think an Indian elephants smaller ears could produce enough lift to get it airborne in the first place let alone allow for such a controlled landing.

Mind you scientists said a bumble bee couldn't fly so........ :/
