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!’.

  1. Start a collection for these people to buy them a decent knife. It irritates me to watch these kind of videos where the rescuers use butter knives .

  2. Ok why are divers using a pocket knife from Walmart…I though yo have huge knifes strapped to your leg, my dad always di

  3. What a beautiful thing these folks do. We as a species need to do better. Causing other species harm by our indifference to how we dispose of things is disgusting and we should be ashamed of ourselves.

  4. Please could anyone bear in mind, keep the sea clean. Pain excepted causing by nature the fishes suffer are purely human made damage to the nature.

  5. While credit to the divers for their efforts let's not forget that human activity caused this and pretty much ALL the other situations where animals needed rescuing from dogs being maltreated to wild animals getting caught in fences or falling into man-made wells to seals dolphins and sharks trapped in netting. The fishing industry sure seems to dump a whole load of crap into the sea!!!
