Bottlenose dolphin asks divers for help on MSN Video

I watched this video, and now have an even higher respect for my fellow divers.

I also will be buying a pair of dive scissors shortly.

a trilibite line cutter would have worked better in that situation, but the diver did great with the scissors.

You could see that he was very nervous when he first pulled out the scissors (hands shaking), I would have been too. I have never seen a dolphin while diving, but I have seen quite a few videos by divers with dolphins, and this was by far my favorite. I think it shows incredible intelligence that it is able to recognize both that the diver can help, and that the diver can be trusted.

Great video, steady camera and great angles too!

I second the Trilobite. So small and easy to attach to a BCD strap.

Concur. Probably easier than the dive sabre he had- wasn't that an XS Scuba Fogcutter?

Trilobite type devices will go through almost anything- to include kevlar.
