ROBERT PATTINSON experienced the “best day” of his life on the set of his new movie when an elephant picked him up in its mouth and turned him upside down.
The animal-loving Twilight actor is currently shooting circus movie Water for Elephants in California with Hollywood beauty Reese Witherspoon, but it was another female co-star who caught Pattinson’s attention after a close encounter.
He tells Details magazine, “So this big female started sniffing my foot - big female elephant, that is.
“She sniffed it so hard it came up off the pavement like her trunk was a vacuum cleaner. Then she took my entire body in her mouth. I was holding on to her head, and as I slowly let go she tightened her grip really carefully until I’m just upside down in her mouth and she’s going through my pockets with her trunk, looking for peppermints. It was the best day of my life.”
