The baby elephant (pictured) followed his mum into the thorn bush at the Sambi Sand Game Reserve in South Africa
He suddenly realizes he is a bit too small to get through easily and find himself too scared to put his foot down (pictured)
The cameraman is heard giggling as the elephant moves slowly and sheepishly through the shrubbery

The cameraman and other onlookers comment on how ’embarrassed’ he now looks to have had his predicament filmed
With one eye on his audience, he finally makes it through the rest of the bush (pictured)
Finally the young calf gets over all the branches and is able to rejoin his mother (pictured)
