Interesting story.

Quote:

BEIJING, China (AP) -- The long arms of the world's tallest man reached in and saved two dolphins by pulling out plastic from their stomachs, state media and an aquarium official said Thursday.

The dolphins got sick after nibbling on plastic from the edge of their pool at an aquarium in Liaoning province.

Someone should rescue them Free Willy style.

Why was there plastic at the edge of the pool to begin with? Did part of the pool liner tear off? It seams like the people at the aquarium should have done something to prevent the dolphins from having access to the plastic.

This may come as a shock but...

there are some people in this world that actually LIVE IN CHINA!

I don't plan on flying to China. When the circus comes to town I don't expect any Chinese people to come to the USA to join the protesters outside the ticket booth.
