Viral Video Of Baby Elephant Trying To Sit On Chair Like A Human Is ‘So Innocent'
The video features a baby elephant attempting to sit on a foldable chair, and the result is as adorable as it sounds
There's something universally irresistible about baby elephants. Their floppy ears, playful clumsiness and boundless curiosity always capture hearts online. And once again, this little elephant is reminding us why they're among the most loved creatures. A video recently shared on Instagram has gone viral, featuring a baby elephant attempting to sit on a foldable chair, and the result is as adorable as it sounds.
The clip opens to show the curious calf approaching the chair with curiosity. In what seems to be pure innocence, the baby elephant tries to sit on the chair as a human would, awkwardly balancing its legs and massive frame. Unsurprisingly, the effort doesn't quite work out. After several failed attempts, the little elephant seems to grow frustrated. Before leaving the scene, he kicks the chair in a tiny tantrum that is similar to a toddler's outburst.
While the attempt might have been unsuccessful, the elephant's determination and clumsy missteps have viewers utterly enchanted. The moment has sparked laughter and an outpouring of affection as social media users couldn't stop gushing over the young elephant's antics.
'So pure-hearted and innocent, baby. Precious. Hugs n kisses," a user wrote.
Another commented, 'So cute. I love how he lost it in the end. Began to kick the chair as if that will make things fine. Elephants are truly the cutest."
'This is the cutest. Thanks for making my day today," wrote an Instagram user.
A user said, 'Made my day honestly. I love how he was so mad at the end."
'Awww, this was the cutest, I swear. Electrets do be acting like human babies, only these animals are much cuter," an individual remarked.
In another heartwarming moment, a baby elephant gently approached a man seated on a chair. With endearing affection, the little one wrapped its trunk, and even its legs, around him in what looked like a loving embrace.
Whether you're an animal lover or just in need of a smile, we guarantee this video will lift your mood.

‘I have never touched another person's phone': Katrina Kaif on maintaining personal space in close friendships and relationships
Navigating the digital world can sometimes feel like navigating a minefield, and celebrities are no exception. Social media etiquette is the need of the hour — whether it's refraining from triple texting, not scrolling through someone else's gallery or bombarding them with Instagram reels. Katrina Kaif has been vocal about her mindful phone usage, and in a recent conversation with Arbaaz Khan on his podcast Pinch, the Bharat actor opened up about how she likes to maintain boundaries with close friends and her partner. 'I do not touch other people's phones. Even if I've touched it, it's to use the camera to take a picture of you. I do not scroll, or what do you call it, touch. I just think that personal space needs to be respected. Otherwise, you are going to have trouble,' she said. Gurleen Baruah, occupational psychologist and executive coach at That Culture Thing, told 'Generally, it is not acceptable for one partner to check the other's phone in a relationship, even if they have permission. This issue is nuanced and involves several important factors to consider.' According to her, trust is a cornerstone of any healthy relationship, and checking a partner's phone undermines this trust and the natural leap of faith that partners take with each other. Privacy is essential, and invading these boundaries can cause lasting damage to the relationship. 'Checking a partner's phone can create a cycle of doubt and suspicion rather than alleviating it. This behaviour often escalates, leading to increasingly invasive actions and higher levels of anxiety,' she said, adding that the habit of checking a partner's phone can become an obsession, particularly if driven by conditions such as Relationship OCD (ROCD). This leads to a cycle of obsession, distress, and compulsion, significantly affecting both mental health and the relationship. Baruah believes open communication and clear boundaries are vital. 'Instead of snooping, partners should discuss their feelings of insecurity and work through them together. This approach fosters a stronger and more trusting relationship,' she added. Navigating issues of privacy and transparency is crucial for maintaining a healthy balance in a relationship. Barua shared some strategies couples can use: Open Communication and Clear Boundaries: Establish open and honest communication to discuss expectations and boundaries regarding privacy and transparency. Agree on what information should be shared and what can remain private, ensuring both partners feel heard and understood. Build and Maintain Trust: Work on building and maintaining trust through consistent, honest behaviour. Trust grows when partners feel secure and confident in each other's actions and intentions. Address any concerns openly to prevent misunderstandings. Respect Individual Space: Allow each other to have private moments and personal space without feeling the need to check up on one another constantly. Respecting individual space is essential for personal well-being and the health of the relationship. Be Transparent About Feelings: Share your feelings and concerns with your partner. If you're feeling insecure or anxious about something, talk about it instead of resorting to invasive actions like checking their phone. Transparency about emotions helps in understanding and addressing the root causes of insecurity.

I was like, What is going on… usually you get a call from a manager that a director wants to meet you. So you're prepared." Shruti added that she was quite confused as the conversation started about a music video, and then they were discussing the film.
