While it’s understandable to want to exit your vehicle and observe wildlife at Yellowstone National Park, tourists often underestimate how quickly large mammals like bison could close the distance between them if they really wanted to. One man knew, though, and he did his best to warn other tourists who should have been getting back in their cars as a bison moved toward them.

The man, who goes by @nickdangerously on TikTok, shared his video online, and a lot of people joked that they’d hoped the bison would go after the tourists. In the footage, a bison slowly walks across a field. As it does, it gets closer and closer to a road, where a group of people have gathered outside their vehicles to watch and take photos.

Nick shouts warnings at people offscreen, warning them about how fast bison can move when they want to. He urged folks to get back in their cars. Ultimately, the bison peacefully crossed the road—and that’s lucky for the tourists who disregarded Nick’s advice.
