I did that also with a sperm whale one time. It about knocked the regulator out of my mouth when I was diving. But the animals are just as interested in us as we are in them. And I think if somebody has a quiet moment with a dolphin and truly understands that this is a beautiful creature and I wanna protect the oceans and the creatures like it, that touch is important. Seeing it on TV isn’t the same. It’s not going to emote the same emotions. It’s not gonna fire you into, “I gotta do something different.” To me, it connects.
