I actually know of an answer to this peculier question. I'd just be interested to hear how many men you would think necessary and why (ie., how they would take it down ).
10 to carry it and throw it into the water, drowning it.
10 people can't carry a elephant...you can't kill it by drowning it eather they can hold their trunks over water...you may not know it but they can swim in 20 ft deep water
One. Assuming he can start from wherever he wanted, an extremely well trained person could kill an elephant by organ damage. Remember, the kill doesn't have to be quick or clean, it just has to happen.
Elephants are the largest land animals around, and have been known to kill entire parties of hunters armed with guns. Their tusks can be eight feet long and their feet would crush you in seconds.
You might as well just kill yourself to save you the hassle of the elephant doing it for you.
Yeah, like Xzeno said, a well-trained person could perhaps attack it in an area where a vital organ lies, perhaps in the stomach. Organ damage is brutal.
Wait, can the elephant be a vegetable? By which I mean comatose or paralyzed.

You have one shot at doing it right. If you fail, you won't exactly be alive to do it again.

I doubt this would be possible. The amount of force which would need to be exerted to cause organ damage to an elephant would be massive, even at its weakest points. Continual wearing down of the elephant isn't really an option here, because the one man would probably end up collapsing from exhaustion before he could do any real damage to the elephant.

No. A fully functioning elephant. If this was the case, one person could probably kill it eventually over the course of a few days.
