Humpback Ballet - Cousteau divers film close encounter


 
   

In the warm protected waters of the Hawaiian Islands Humpback Whale National Marine Sanctuary, two thirds of the North Pacific humpback whale population come to compete and mate. In this short film, Cousteau divers use rebreathers to quietly film a pod of humpback whales. Their intimate experience is featured in "America's Underwater Treasures," a two-hour program and part of the series, Jean-Michel Cousteau's Ocean Adventures shown on PBS. The crew anticipated their enormous size, but not the grace of their underwater ballet. Jean-Michel Cousteau Ocean Adventures is a co-production between Ocean Futures Society and KQED

"In order to stabilize world population, it is necessary to eliminate 350,000 people a day. It is a horrible thing to say, but it's just as bad not to say it." — Oceanographer Jacques Cousteau, as quoted in "The Courier," a publication of the U.N. Educational, Scientific & Cultural Organization (U.N.E.S.C.O.) "A total population of 250-300 million people, a 95% decline from present levels, would be ideal." — Ted Turner of C.N.N., as quoted in the "McAlvany Intelligence Advisor," 6/96

The dolphins and whales carry the vibration of unconditional love to this planet. There is a gray whale off the coast of Oregon. call ed "Scar back". She has a huge chunk of her back blown away by harpoon, yet she still comes to the whale watching boats with love for humans. The whales are trying to awaken humans. Invite them into your dreams to teach you in ways beyond words and the mind.

Remarkable an amazing gentle giant yet so graceful in their moves. I have always admired the whale, I am totally against whaling. Your video compliments of the Cousteau foundation confirms one thing we can live together with these amazing creatures and perhaps they can teach us something.
