Video: Fisherman Frees Baby Humpback Whale from Net

By The Editors

Charter boat skipper Joe Brogan from Western Australia is the good-guy of the week. He dove in to free a juvenile humpback whale that had gotten caught in a tangled cray pot line, according to 3 News.

The rescue was filmed and posted on YouTube earlier this week and shows people on board pulling the rope up onto the boat. The 42-year-old skipper then jumps into the ocean, swims toward the whale and cuts the rope with a knife.
