Dolphin in boat leap

-

A DOLPHIN leapt onto a boat in the US, crashing into a woman and breaking both her ankles. Chrissie Frickman was boating with her husband and two children in southern California last month when a pod of dolphins swam alongside. One of the animals jumped onto the vessel, knocking Ms Frickman over and landing on her legs, the Orange County Register reported. Her husband, Dirk, headed towards harbour, splashing water on the thrashing 150kg dolphin to keep it alive. The dolphin was saved.
