The video continues with a series of stunts, including Casselly telling the majestic creatures to join trunks before he does a one-handed handstand on top of them.
Casselly, who has been training elephants for most of his young life, also showed off his daring split on top of their heads as he folded his arms.
The acrobat is the son of Rene Casselly Sr and Alexia Casselly, who also perform with him.
Casselly and his family performs with their five beloved elephants, Betty, Kimba, Mambo, Nanda and Tonga.
‘It is more common to have a dog or a cat for a pet. But I have always lived with my five elephants!’ Casselly said in February.
The Casselly family was also featured in the Danish-made documentary, The Circus Dynasty, about two of Europe’s most eminent circus families.
