Maybe the Guy Farted, or worse!

That sure would be justification for it! Man, that is a cool video. At least he has proof of it! Yeah, he could have definitely been in danger of being stomped, or poked, or both and more! I don't think he made the shot, if so, it was a poor shot! I hope he didn't, unless he got a good quartering away, shot, or a good broad side shot. Which I doubt the Elk gave him.
