I went this week-end to an exhibition in Petchabury, Eastern Thailand.
Sorry for the crappy images. I didn't bring my 5D. Had only my Ixus that never leaves my pocket.
This part of the show was so stunning that i want to share this with you.
But I'm not giving the answer right now. :p I promise you wont wait long. I just want you guys to figure out how does he do that????

Sweet! They do that at SeaWorld as well - I often watch and wonder what would happen if they decided to go in a slightly different direction - ouch!

Thai people are very good at observing, and copying after they have put their own salt in the recipe. So I guessed this show can be seen elsewhere. But this is my first time. I have seen another dolphin show (was it in Indianapolis? I cannot remember precisely) but they didn't do that.
