(Photos) Man is kicked in the chest and sent flying to ground by captive elephant

 An elephant taking part in a religious event in India kicks a man in the chest in an unprovoked attack.

Saraswati was being paraded along with other temple elephants in a colourful parade in Kerala.But for some reason the elephant became agitated ,striking a worshiper in the body. The force of the kick sent him flying to the corner of the road as stunned onlookers dash for cover.

Remarkably he was not killed but was badly injured.
