Not how I wanted to deliver Grip Strength - v2, but rarely we get everything we want. For anyone interested, some further reading. And potentially our best way to understand what's just happened:

Anyway onto the real business, Paul Harris just got himself banned from South Africa for crushing an elephant.
I was walking by and noticed him hysterically crying. Turned out he was actually laughing.
Apparently he tried to pet it while it was drawing a portrait of him. This was the conversation verbatim:
SG123: "Paul, why are you sitting for a portrait from an elephant in the first place?"
PH: "I needed my hair cutted"
SG123: "You mean 'cut'. Anyway, what the fuck happened with the elephant?"
PH: "Past tents. It's dead"
SG123: "FFS, I'll go check it out. But I just came from there and didn't see a dead elephant.
SG123: "Is this a fucking joke Paul, there's no dead elephant past tents"
PH: "Hair cutted"
SG123: "Cut. But I don't give a shit. Where's the dead elephant?"
PH: "Past tents".
SG123: "This is sick mate. Why would you make this up? I checked by the tents".
At this point Paul was laughing too hard to communicate with. I got the hell out of there and thought nothing more of it of it until local press started covering the story a day later. "Elephant crushed to death whilst drawing portrait of MMA fighter whilst he got his hair cut".
I searched the area "past tents" top to bottom, so can't for the life of me figure out how I didn't see the dead elephant. But anyway, conclusively it did.
Weird twist though, this happened in India. So in conclusion, fuck South Africa.
