Rule 0: make sure one person in the group runs slower than yourself. Joke apart, thank you for this excellent presentation.

You don't have to be faster than the lion, just faster than the slowest person.

Rules? Sounds more like common sense. Great info 💯

Wow, thank you!

My first African safari was in 2008. I wish this video had been available then. Very useful advice. A phrase that amused me while I was there but which is very true: "In the African bush, only food runs"

I have broken a few rules in African national parks. Everytime our jeep have had a flat tire I have left the car and changed it for a new one. When being harassed by baboons I have attacked the troop with machete and a small aluminium table as a shield. I have taken a leak during nighttime outside my tent with hyenas around. I have shouted at Cape buffalos to disperse when surrounding our vehicle. I have scared away predators by stomping in the ground and shouted. I have done a lot of other things also but everything have fulfilled its purpose without any problems.

I finally found my role model I am really inspired ✊🏾

Thanks. Hehe.

how expensive is it to get a guard with you? does anybody knows this?

There is another piece of advice for those driving themselves, apart from the obvious such as having water bottles, maybe some snacks etc., and having a good pair of binoculars. That is keep your driving speed as low as possible and avoid revving engines.. I know it seems obvious, but I remember back during a trip to Kruger National park some 60 years ago, my late father dove at almost walking pace and we saw plenty of wildlife, whilst others drove at speed throwing up clouds of dust and with excessive engine noise, gave animals plenty of warning, causing them to disappear. The humans then complained that they had seen nothing all day..!!LOL.. There is one more serious piece of advice to give.. NEVER, Ever stop next to a baby animal alongside a road perhaps, especially say a baby elephant or more rarely a baby rhino, drive past and then look back if need be, or stop well beforehand... No matter how helpless and appealing the animal may seem, the chances are that it has Not been "abandoned" and that "mother" maybe concealed close by. When a mother animal feels that her young is threatened, remember she does not know that your intentions may be good and she WILL attack usually without warning..!!

How’s about if I need to go for a piss

Your tour guide/driver will usually advise with this. Let them know when you feel like you need to go.

your hands drove me crazy

your hands drone me crazy

There have been awful incidents over the last few years. Most of these could be avoided.

That intro took me out lmao

Hunters bring there own guns.. I don't want to hunt but I would have to have a gun or two lol so I would have to do as a hunter but won't shoot anything unless my life is in danger and I seen a video using drones in national Parks I just seen a video before this one and they where using a drone idk I'm Kool with a good camera 📸
