From the BBC’s “Planet Earth” Series… which is non-stop astounding- but this Hydroplaning technique used by Bottlenosed Dolphins is just jaw-dropping. The “Shallow Seas” eppisode in which this segment was a part of is really worth getting a hold of (start your bittorrent engines now).

I was thinking last night - I would pay to watch this on a big screen (if we had a TV I’d be paying to see it on a smaller one, gawd bless the Beeb) wouldn’t it be great if we could convince our local cinema to give a screening of Planet Earth (in HD of course)- or Blue Planet. I’m sure it has been done. Really great stuff.

[my dad has always had a great fear of hydroplaning cars... i've seen it happen- its well worth understanding, you drivers out there be warned, look out for dolphins too]
