There is a live-aboard vessel operating out of Palm Beach Florida, which offers a spectacular dolphin interaction experience. It is the only boat in the world that can bring you to a pod of wild dolphins, three generations of which have accepted the captain of this boat (Captain Scott Wayne Smith) as a member of their pod... |
| Captain Scott will dive in to the water near the pod, the dolphins will come up to him and greet him as they would any other member of the pod who has been away for a few days/weeks, and they will follow him back to the group of snorkellers his divemasters have put in the water.. |
|
What we are really talking about here is having an interactive experience with a non-human intelligence. This is about as close as most of us will ever get to communicating with aliens. |
|
Luckily, these "aliens" seem to really like people, at least they have a sincere affection for some people in particular, and bear no malice or ill will to any others. |
|
And this is a good thing, because some of these male "bull" dolphins could weigh in at over 600 pounds, and can become a hurtling projectile with the impact potential of a Honda Civic. |
