> Zoologist and series producer Rob Pilley said that it was the first time dolphins had been filmed behaving this way.

Apparently dolphins know how to have a good time and know more than we think. Dolphins will be the first to jet if it all goes under just like in Hitchikers Guide to the Galaxy.
From the Guide:
>> "On the planet Earth, man had always assumed that he was more intelligent than dolphins because he had achieved so much—the wheel, New York, wars and so on—whilst all the dolphins had ever done was muck about in the water having a good time.
