Hi CompassionGiver, stopping an angry elephant would be a feat of compassion for sure. Quite a good analogy too.

I don't think anyone wouldn't have fear in the situation. The animal instinct (as we are mammals) to survive would surely kick in.
The "fight or flight" as it is called. If you can't win then run.
