BBC Natural World - Saved by Dolphins (2008) (5/5)

[ssssanchezz]

Ok why are they all scared and shit when they're in the water if only one of them knows theres a shark? When they get in the boat they all "breath a sigh of relief". I call bullshit. That fat guy in the yellow shirt bullshitted the shark part.

[Surenity]

They must let any moron off the street become a lifeguard in New Zealand.

[krewrunit]

They can still kill you but great show

[kylap6]

thank god you guys are save:)

[chidiogoms]

AWESOME ANIMALS!

[sharonfc]

I believe the lifeguards may have taught the dolphins to rescue people. They may have been emulating the lifeguards.

save the dolphins kill the japanese

[bukon90]

simply amazing. some mutual respect is due here for these creatures.

[mrkaa001]

Hope humans never eats dolphins again. :(

[mmdb]

I hoped the dad would be eaten for being a plain idiot.

[LightSpirit06]

@mmdb That is a horrible thing to say; you should be ashamed of yourself!!

How was he supposed to know that there was a shark in the water and the dolphins were trying to protect them from it?!

That's just awful!

[flukeman022]

@LightSpirit06 Yes you're right mmdb shouldn't say things like that, it's just pure evil. But he's right in his own way because his daughter cut herself leaving scents for sharks to track her miles away. Isn't he a professional life guard, that it's common knowledge how sharks detects its prey? He supposed to be an expert in these things but didn't even know the basic knowledge of sharks. Either way I hope they learned their lesson and I’m glad they didn't have any injuries

[LightSpirit06]

@flukeman022 Well yeah but sometimes, even professionals forget basic facts and make mistakes. I mean it wasn't the dad's fault that the shark tracked them; none of them knew that the shark was in the bay in the first place. These are things you're not to know when you go for a swim in the sea sadly, but luckily everyone got out alive.

@mmdb

While I wouldn't go that far, he was an idiot. He's supposed to be an expert and he's got a bunch of kids in tow, one of which is nervous anyway, at least one is bleeding, leaving a trail that can be detected for 20 miles, swimming a long distance, in an area known to be a feeding ground of Great White Sharks. That's a recipe for disaster. If the dolphins hadn't had far more common sense than he did, he would lost his kids that day. Dolphins really are extraordinary creatures.

[ChocolatesABC]

dolphins are more compassionate than some humans. Good to know, eh?

[GazMysticism]

@ChocolatesABC very good to know:) incredible animals

[TheCarlScharnberg]

@ChocolatesABC I wonder if the dolphins have an equivalent to the human psychopaths? Or maybe the human race is just lucky?
