Hydroplaning Dolphins

I've never seen this before until I finally got to catch up on the last few episodes of Planet Earth the other day. This is a learned technique that only a few dolphins out of the group being filmed have mastered, but it still looks so ridiculously FUN.

I think I've seen videos of orca whales doing that before.

Man, I'd be terrified of getting beached. DOLPHINS, PLEASE DON'T DO THIS

Same here given how that's pretty much the major cause of beaching. *wants to push the hydroplaning dolphins back into the deeper water* It's not worth the one fish dolphins!
