Rhino charges & flips car at German park in terrifying video with the zookeeper inside

Τhe driver escaped with minor injuries and was even ready to report back to work

A safari ride at a German park turned into a terrifying close call when a rhinoceros rammed and flipped a zookeeper’s car — and the whole encounter was caught on video.

The extra-terrifying part? The zookeeper was still in the vehicle.

In the footage, taken by one of 12 guests who witnessed the charge in a nearby safari Jeep, the rhino can be seen tossing around and battering the car, which is painted in black and white zebra stripes.
