This was an amazing effort. I saw it the other day and watched in awe as the rescuer talked us through the video. I have a new found respect for the animals of the sea, this Whale Shark is very intelligent. And a double thumbs up to the guys that jumped in the water to do what had to be done.

Yes saw that myself on the box the other night great footage,the fella that cut the rope off earned himself a special place in paradise.Great Karma.And the Whale shark is definately smarter than we give it credit for.

You would like to think it sought out the right guy for the job. I like the bit where he is standing on its back and you can see the tail fin in the distance. I wonder how long it swam around with the rope? Just the best story!:)
