Strangers Heroically Save 30 Beached Dolphins from Drowning

This short video will help restore your faith in humanity.

Several tourists were enjoying a relaxing morning on a beach in Arraial do Cabo, Brazil when they noticed a disruption in the water.  One person started recording what turned out to be a pod of about 30 dolphins approaching the shore.

What started off as a pretty cool and rare scene to witness, turned into a desperate moment as people came to realization the dolphins were getting beached and stuck on the sand.

With barely a moment’s hesitation, groups of random people start running out into the water to save our dolphin friends.

As quickly as the scene escalated, it was over just as fast.  The whole episode happens in less than 3 minutes from beginning to end.  You can see the craziness in the video below.
