Magical Video Of 'Glowing' Dolphins Swimming In The Water
Not far from the coast near Newport Beach, California, this past week YouTube user Patrickc_la filmed a very special scene that is rarely seen.
Playful dolphins swam in the sea at night, leaving a blue trail behind. The scene is like science fiction, but it also has an explanation.
A flock of dolphins, with their presence, attracted curious onlookers who filmed special scenes on camera. Dolphins "glowed" in blue while swimming in the sea, and the video posted on YouTube has over 170,000 views.
The blue trail is the result of the plankton's defense mechanism, which lights up if it is scared or in danger. It confuses predators with the blue light, then tries to escape.
Check out the wonderful video that was captured near the city of Newport Beach, California. Have you ever seen in life that the sea would be colored like this when fish are swimming?
