Izla better treat her boat engine to a lavish meal after it didn't betray her amid the crazy action ensuing in this video.

This gripping clip features Izla boating in the shimmering waters of Zambia when she notices that she's being chased by a hyperenergetic hippo!

"A big male hippo popped up just by the boat and scared us all!" she told WooGlobe. "He went under the water, popped up again, and started to charge us, and then again!

"Captured him the final time, with a bit of distance, but my heart is still beating hard! My son got scared, but our amazing guide was so calm and professional!"

She deemed this heart-pounding experience a 'memory for life!'
