Paddle boarder Andrew Hill was in for an adventure when he was catching some waves in Gracetown, Western Australia. While Andrew was out on the water, a filmmaker was videoing the entire scene.
That’s when he noticed a pod of dolphins chasing after some fish. It was about 20 dolphins and when they saw a wave coming, they decided to ride it too. Since Andrew was on top of the water, he didn’t have a lot of notice to see the dolphins. So when the wave came, one of the funny guys broke away and tried to land on Andrew’s paddle board. It was such a shock that Andrew was knocked clear off his board.
I don’t know how I would’ve reacted to this encounter. Dolphins are known to be very friendly and curious, so he was probably just trying to play with Andrew, but definitely a frightening encounter. What would you have done?
