A brave team of divers performed an incredible rescue of a whale shark that had become caught in a piece of rope.
In December 2019, divers from Macana Maldives tour agency, Simone Musumeci and Antonio Di Franca were taking some clients on a guided dive in the island of Fuvahmulah, Maldives, when they spotted something extraordinary.
A huge whale shark was cruising the water around their boat with a thick rope tied around its body, between its head and its pectoral fins.
Simone said: “While the divers were slowly getting back on the boat, our guide Gianluca, who was on board, shouted ‘whale shark!’.

The people that do these things have my utmost respect for their kindness and compassion for animals 👍🏻love the way that the whale shark seemed to come back to say “thank you” ☺️
They are incredible and majestic creatures.
@@arlenbell4376 indeed they are 👍🏻🐋
What have we done to the world we and these creatures live in? It's absolutely fantastic that there are the sort of people who can and will help them when they are in trouble. Thank You 😊 🙏
@@christopherward9230 people should care more and take their rubbish home!
It is so nice to be kind and have compassion for animals during the day, but in the evening to eat some pork or mutton.
These people are the real heroes for those poor creatures without a voice. Much love and respect for them.
Por o ir e
But they DO speak. We humans just don't have the slightest clue what they're saying.
This shark swims so majestically, good job to those who freed him
Thank you to all divers and people involved in such projects, you guys restore faith in humanity. ❤️
Much Love from 🇨🇦
What a beautiful sight to see that whale shark drift away FREE from any entanglements. Great job, guys!!
Also a beautiful sight to see people who care to help🤗
@Thou Swell You can. There are lots of animals on land that need help.
like watchin america drift away free from mainstream media hypnosis
The last minute touch of the human hand with the shark fin made me feel that our planet is beautiful 🙂
So eine liebevolle, schöne Geste habe ich selten gesehen🙋♀️😇🖐️🐳👨
Humans can be manipulated in 3 minutes
Everyone in that video, including the shark had one of the best days of their lives! Bravo, excellent job! Thank you!
Whenever I want to remind myself of what a REAL hero is, I watch videos of these selfless souls who are risking their lives to save the lives of others.
To them, an eternity of gratitude.
That poor animal with those deep wounds from dragging that heavy piece of rope for who knows how long. God bless you guys for doing what you do and being the people you are
hallo frand how are you i lave you usa
Thank you so much !

For us
You can almost feel the relief yourself when that rope comes off. It has been on for a loooooong time, pretty nasty wounds at the fins. Hope it will heal. Great job.
The shark should heal. Sad all the human trash that pollutes the ocean 🌊 😳😵💫
It definitely should heal. Whoever did that should receive punishment.
Thank you so much for helping. God Bless You
ส😢น
I think those people care for the animal to
Oh .my..god ..good,.idaie.
WOW such a BEAUTIFUL sight to see!! Thank God they saved him!!❤️❤️❤️
Kind people who helped the whale shark, your kindness will stay with you forever! Bless you! ❤🙏
Those people in water deserve the highest award on this planet.,job well done.
Love your comment my friend!
I wonder how he got stuck in that?
For such crazy person like you yes.
Normal people do it cause its good to help.
Agree, 100%.
Your dumb, they are just fixing someone's screw up
I haven't read all the remarks, but I have high respect for these divers risking a dive injury as you can see they stay with this beautiful whale shark despite it's rapid change of depth.
Exactly I almost held my breath for a second there as the Shark Whale plunged deeper 😢
Exactly! I got nervous when I saw the diver pinching his nose to equalize.
They actually let go at one point because he was taking them deeper. The got back on when he came back up. If they would stay on him and go deeper and then he takes them back up, they could get decompression sickness.
Wygląda to tak spokojnie ale to była niebezpieczna akcja ludzie ci narażali swoje życie to krótki montaż podejrzewam że akcja trwała kilkadziesiąt minut te liny zrobione są z bardzo trwałych materiałów bardzo trudno je przeciąć takie mają mieć właściwości pełen szacun za odwagę i poswiecenie
Chilling. As a diver for many years, I always hoped I might share in an experience like this - never happened. God bless these guys. The shark new - I guarantee.
Amazing job! There is no telling how long that poor whale had that on it. The scars were so visible.
Thank you!
It's a shark (fish), not a whale lol...notice the gills?
Who in the world would hit unlike to such a beautiful act.
PETA. They don't believe in coming in contact with wild animals. They'd rather eat soy that taste like meat and stand in front of semi trucks going into meat plants.
Hey peta.... Quit making things taste like the animals your trying to protect. Let it's flavor be what it is.... Crap!
Idiots
I Can't understend
These are indeed those who claim to be fighting for animal rights..
Psychos, who never have got any kind of love and therefore are jeallous and prefer to play ego shooting games, where they can get rewards, or absolutly stupid brainless goons without honest emotions or "people" who dont know what the sign " thumbs down" mean because they are illiterate.
Nature has made a big mistake by creating us oh so phantastic humans.
My ass!
Any other suggestions?
That handshake near the end of video was a nice touch.
You mean flipper shake or slap

22,5 Million views! The World is marveled by these divers compassion and the beauty and friendliness of this whale shark. One only hopes that it heals those terrible wounds on it's continued journey through our planets oceans.
How privileged you must feel stroking that wonderful creature, made me cry, wish more were like you, thanks so much.
Amazing how I've seen this happen to various sea animals and its like they understand that the diver is helping them.
Whale is a mammal, and mammals have a complex brain 🧠 than other animals, hence it was able to figure out the divers were helping out and not trying to to hurt.
@@emmanuelosieya6733 Whale Sharks aren't mammals, they're fish
@@emmanuelosieya6733 "Unlike whales, sharks are not mammals but belong to a group of cartilaginous fishes. The whale shark (Rhincodon typus) earns the name “whale” solely because of its size."
@@emmanuelosieya6733 Whales don't have gills
Some animals might be able to detect brainwaves. They feel our intention. There is knowledge of unknown source , knowledge ignored too often by modern humans. Interlevel communication , intuition. All is connected.
These people are kind and good-hearted. We probably needed more people to do these type of stuff.
Yes, and a lot less who dump garbage that ends up in the ocean.
We should stop eating animals.
👍🤚🇺🇿
@@michaelmichail9627 and here we go again...
Ainda existe pessoas com o coração bom isso nos da forças pra continuar.
Parabéns aos mergulhadores
I loved how it new what the diver's we're doing, and stayed so still. It even rolled over so they could get that fishing net off. It's amazing how much they know about us and we're not always hunting and killing them.God 🙏 bless all who saved this beautiful whale shark 😎🦈 🦈 🦈 💗👍🦈
The fact that he didnt just go away and still come back to salute the rescuers... priceless
Animals may be the most grateful creatures in the whole World/Universe

@@davidknichal6629 gratitude and emotional intelligence much more than most of human nowdays..
@@terrysullivan1992 🖕it's an animal rescue not politics
@@ayuanggraini2436 enlightened words 💜
I can't imagine what it must be like to be so close to a large and peaceful animal like that, let alone helping it escape from bondage. Truly amazing work.
Maybe this shark was into 50 Shades of Grey and enjoyed the bondage? Silly human.
Agreed, I guess it requires courage to even get close to it, not to mention working on it. Earned my respect!
"Peaceful"
Shark: inhales millions of tiny sea lives at a time
I had the good fortune to see such a beast up very close...
Fishing at night in a panga (about 20 + feet long) with Mexican fishermen friends we were waiting to pull in
the net when along side we saw that monstrous ridge surface...
Longer than our boat, wider and totally motionless...
It could have flipped us in seconds...stayed for a while and just "sank" back in the depths..!
Very special encounter..so i can relate to these divers saving the creature...
@@dominiqueschaffner308 That's awesome, what an amazing experience! He must have just been checking you all out from curiosity :)
Люди, я вами горжусь! Я люблю природу и всех её обитателей! Вы делаете добрые дела, спасая морских обитателей! 😊👍
People like you both deserve everything good in life!
She let the divers help her. She knew they were helping because she stuck around until they finished. She must have felt so much relief!
Fremen Not so sure of that... You see in the video that the divers had to stop at some point because the shark dove too deep for them.
And hhhk20, all animals are perfectly capable of calling other species for help.
@@olgaolga3292 Thank you, so saved me replying to the idiot...Mahalo
@hhhk20 Also, not sure if you've ever seen any kind of aquatic documentary or anything but there are plenty of animals that help each other. It's not impossible to make a leap that humans can be helpful animals too.
@@harrisaxer2651 I've actually had the pleasure of swimming with whale sharks, and from that experience I can tell you that they're really not very fond of us tagging along with them. When they get tired of us all that they do is go deep until you can't see them anymore. Most likely the whale doesn't know that we are somewhat limited in how deep we can go. I say it wanted the help and knew they were helping because after it went too deep and the divers had to stop, it actually came back. Pretty amazing and I've seen videos of many other animal species approaching humans and sticking around when they were in need of help, including other sharks.
@@majalca03 totally agree now. What saddens me the most is how many people still think that we as a species have the exclusive rights to intelligence and emotions despite infinite examples to the contrary.
My brother saw a whale shark once when he was fishing. When he got back to the dock an older fisherman told him they’re very rare to see and considered good luck if you see one. So I guess this blessing went both ways. Thanks for being brave enough not to give up on saving it. You all set a place in heaven that day.
@Grim Reaper there's no heaven just saying
ltsheep Jesus loves you!
@@Kayla-yj4vv hahahahaha
Grim Reaper kind acts get you there!
ltsheep Oh YES THERE IS! I had a Near Death Experience 5 years ago. It’s a place of PIRE LOVE 💗 💕 ❤️ ! Have more FAITH and BELIEVE!
Bless all of you who helped free this beautiful creature from all that debris. That last touch….made me cry! Great job freeing and filming it . Thank you. ❤
This is the beautifulst rescue I had ever seen. Georgious. Thank you brave divers
When the whale shark swam back round and basically thanked the diver..... that.... that was touching and profound. Universal language... ❤
💙 that was awesome indeed
Most animals will do that if you help them. We are a share consciousness .
johnh23z well considering only a few animals have consciousness I doubt it
It didnt thank them at all
@Jacques Matteo de Lusignan you wouldn't survive 2 seconds with oleysa admit it she would break you
There's a special place in heaven for heroes like you. Great job!

The whale shark is one of the most docile animals in our seas, on ou planet. Bless these divers.
Thank you divers for helping that beautiful whale shark. Great job. Grazie mille ♥️♥️♥️
The shark came back to shake hands and say "Thank you"!
That was amazing!! 🐋🐬🔥🔥🔥
Whale sharks can't think like Dolphins or real whales
@@josephposada1830 Since they are a fish (the largest on earth), they don't react to their environments the same way a mammal would, but they do show awareness and the ability to interact with divers. Studies have documented whale sharks, especially young ones, to enjoy playing with divers.
Maybe humans can learn from the whale to show gratitude for a good deed
That whale shark must have been dragging that around for a long time. Thank you guys for removing it!
@Adeline Geesey ; Looks almost like 6 months . . .
There’s still some kindness and compassion left in the human race.
Thanks to the divers for freeing this gorgeous creature!
The world needs people like this.
What a magnificent, gentle giant and huge props to the divers for freeing him.
Des hommes formidable pour la délivrance du géant des mer magnifique et innocent prisonnier d'un piège mortel, longue vite géant àux mageoirs si gracieuses
The world needs more of men of your caliber. Salute Gentlemen.
É muito bom saber que ainda nos restam seres humanos do bem... que lindo!!!👏👏👏👏👏👏
That rope was thick😱 God bless the divers,❤
👍👍🇧🇷🎂🍔
Muito bom ter mergulhadores assim corajosos e o UE o senhor os abençoe sempre e amém.👏
Divers were thick also, both cutting the same area.
That is amazing you guys are great 👍 please what is left in the world which is been destroyed by Zionist satanist
Heavy too!
And as the shark came back to look at its rescuers one last time. Complete with a hand shake of gratitude. awesome job people.

Humanity is not alone in this planet !
Oh man, this made me cry when they finally got that off the mama and she finally turned right-side-up and swam away. I just hope she wasn't too weakened or injured to heal and survive. Thank heavens the people on the boat recognized that something was wrong and called for help. People that choose to do the job of going out and helping wildlife and sea creatures are serious heroes! I have the utmost respect for them.
In the end, a beautiful gesture of love to say thanks to you guys, I feel better now. She came back to let herself be touched with her fin as a thank you and goodbye friends.
You two has done more than what most politician can do right for the world at large.
I know where you’re coming from, but let’s be realistic you’re wrong.. what’s a fuckin’ whale going to do in order to save the FUCKING world..
Oh wait it’s a mermaid it has powers to change the world, wake up bruv.
@@suave605 stop being such a smart-ass & pay attention to his words! These guys took action, while politicians are full of words that never become action, except for the wars about oil!!
God bless you guys
Politicians have no real balls is why. It's easy to take "strong" stances when other's take action for them instead of the politicians. I have no respect for any of them really. Talk is cheap , action speaks louder.
Politician sure is a s s hole.Look at Donald Trump 200% a hole.haha
My deepest appreciation and respect!!!! Thank you 🙏🏻
До слёз!! Доброта и помощь прекрасны!
the risk of descending alone is terrifyingly dangerous on its own, only divers can understand...
this world needs more people like you...
As long as you have a plan on if the shark decides to dive (or surface) suddenly.
Doesn’t that make you feel great knowing there are people in the world who are so kind and helpful
Wow, amazing.😊
yes for sure ,its normal folk who hold humanity ...not corrupt leaders.
We all have that capacity in the right situation.
@@Sara-he4dn doubt it, some humans film others in need ,instead of helping...china is inhumane society....japan also.
I would gladly do it myself but I dont have the time these days.

thanks to all the people who loves animals and respect them. all my gratitude and love
God bless this people that spend their time saving this poor creatures 🙏
I am so relieved and happy. They saved the life of this precious whale shark. I hope the whale shark has a blessed and wonderful life.
Whale sharks are so gentle and squishy looking...... Just want to snuggle one.
I actually felt that sigh of relief YOU MEN ARE PURE HEROES
Спасибо за человечность, добро победит зло!
Such a majestic creature. Great job helping it get loose.
Смотришь и такое напряжение,так хочется помочь.Хорошо,что есть такие люди,которые помогают животным.
Если бы не люди им бы и помогать не пришлось. Все засрали, всю планету.
Заметили что акула поняла что её хотят освободить и сделала что пловцам было удобней.
А мне интересно, как спасатели узнают, кому надо помочь и где🤔

@@user-ny2xt2dh5c Почему же выбрали ишачку, а не вас?
Words cannot describe the emotion I'm feeling right now. Thank You.Thank You
Thank you for saving that beautiful creature!!
She is so cooperative. Her body is static, no movement at all, till the rope was cut. She know they want to help, not to harm her.
That is what I’m taking about. We have a responsibility to care for all creatures. That’s one happy fish. I love these kinds of vids. Thx kind ppl for the rescue.
cant imagine what level of relief this big boy felt after the rope remove from it
You misgendered this shark. I'm offended.
Also it'd be much safer for him too…imagine what if a ship is passing and the rope gets tangled into the engine…that'd be detrimental for both sides.
Дай бог здоровья этим Людям🤝👍🙏
I am so proud that some humans have evolved to a helpful species to the wild
No we are the ones who caused this
ditto that, but it was meant to be positive
If there were more people like you, we would be able to live in a perfect world. Thank you very much for being so courageous and caring.
These saviors stop your heart while they are working. True natural heros!
If you're a diver, and you believe you might face a similar situation, PLEASE carry a seated knife for emergencies. You can get an inexpensive Victorinox serated knife, for a few dollars, and serrated knives will remain sharp for a very long time.
Blessings to the divers in this video, who took the time to rescue that beautiful whale shark
amazing how the animal knew they were trying to help him and allowed them.
This shark just don't eat a meat -- only a plankton. :D
Whale sharks are intelligent gentle giants.
Сколько боли причиняет человек .... и всё же добро есть на земли люди с добрыми сердцами !!! Делайте больше добра
I don't even knwo how to swim and they are helping marine life in deep seas. Respect 1000×
God bless you who saved that whale shark...it shows the marks of the wound
I'm a scuba diver so this is more amazing than anything I've ever seen. I was actually holding my breath the whole time. Their reward for this rescue...watching this whale shark swim away!! Just beautiful. How can there be 4.5K dislikes??
Could they maybe dislike that the whale got caught in the rope to begin with? (Man's fault) I can't imagine anyone being upset with the rescue itself!
Don't be upset about dislikes, studies show that most dislikes are people trying to like and hitting the wrong button by accident.
@ yvonne pandora meehan ypm
Hola buenos días. Me imagino que los dislike son de gente que sabe que ese cabo que llevaba el animal es cosa de los humanos y el animal sufrió mucho tiempo en consecuencia. Yo le doy like por la belleza del animal y por esos buzos tan atrevidos, este tipo de actos del ser humano me emociona mucho. Un saludo
I dunno man, the 80k in ad revenue is a decent reward
Well people don't like clickbait.
Whale sharks arent dangerous so calling them brave is kind of trying to lie and say the whale shark was dangerous.
They are literally Sloths of the ocean so the total opposite of dangerous. Even if a massive one swallowed you he would spit you out mostly unharmed.
unless microscopic they literally couldnt eat you if they tried
Молодцы ребятам, большое спасибо, аж легче стало на душе.
Always happy to see people act with compassion
Your all very special to help. Thank you so much.
Я,в шоке от 2,3 тыс. ,а людям ,спасающих животных ,низкий поклон!!!
As much as I love these videos, it also reminds of all those animals that aren't so lucky.
me too, its a shame people just discard stuff in the waters, let alone use trawler nets.
How many more pictures like this do we have to see before we finally understnd that things can‘t go on like this?
Thank you for your courageous action.
Я в захваті від мужності, людяності, і співчуття до живої істоти. Це благородно і чудово. Я висловлюю учасникам, цим прекрасним людям - дайверам, велике своє захоплення і подяку за їхній надзвичайний поступок.
Ви прекрасні люди, бережи вас Господи !🙏🥰.
Якби так всі люди проявляли доброту і розуміння один до одного, я впевнена не було би війн, і того жаху яке відбувається на земній кулі. Люди спам'ятаймося ! Цей приклад такий пречудовий.
Ще раз вклоняюся перед відвагою цих людей (дайверів) і впевнена що життя віддячить їм тим же.❤❤❤️
Schön, dass es so viele Menschen gibt, denen unser Klima, Umwelt und die Tiere wichtig sind. ❤💚
When the shark turned upside-down, I was afraid he was giving up.
I kept thinking, swim, shark. Swim! When he did, it was so beautiful.
Thank you, divers! 🙂👍
It wasn’t turning upside down, we swam under it. Capt JB.
