Neat! Just as long as the dolphin doesn’t shoot to the surface with that compressed air. :)

How'd he do dat? I thought belugas could only breathe through the blowholes on top of their heads!

I don't know the sex of that individual. It's not breathing out the bubble, it's taking air from the SCUBA diver's regulator into its mouth, then expelling it, probably using its tongue.

I wonder if the animal figured out how to do that by itself or was somehow trained. Training for that seems like a long process.

The belugas at the Vancouver aquarium also do that ring trick, without an assistant.
