It looked like at least a couple of them were having a good time.
There are relatively few documented or disclosed accounts of dolphins getting aggressive wit humans but it does happen especially relating to reproduction. Swimmers in the water with sexually aggressive (and it is aggresive) dolphins can and do get hurt. Guys especially have been singing soprano after getting rammed by male dolphins looking to weed out the competition. Peter Benchley (author of JAWS) had an encounter like this at an aquarium and writes about it in his book Shark Trouble.
Funny that you don't get to hear about people getting ripped a new one by horny dolphins- guess it's not exactly something you'd say in the pub when you got back home. "Guess what happened to me in Jamaica!"

lol looks like he made a friend. btw ^^^^ great response supergaijin. Very informative!
Somehow I doubt it. Unless you like getting repeatedly being rammed in the testes by wild animals.... The laughter from the camera girl is classic Schadenfreude
When I spoke to the girl in the video whom was being antagonized, she told me she was pretty scared at the time. The whole thing still creeps her out to this day...
They sorta laugh about it, but it's a bit of a nervous laugh.

Was doing a dolphin swim in roatan when a dolphin grabbed my upper thigh and proceeded to spin me around like a rag doll. He was just playing but it was definitely different. I had bite mark bruises on my leg, which fascinated the other divers on the Liveaboard.
