Dolphins is an IMAX documentary produced in 2000. Directed by Greg MacGillivray, this feature follows a few scientists studying dolphins (chiefly Kathleen Dudzinski, Dean Bernal, and Alejandro Acevedo-GutiƩrrez, as well as Louis Herman and Bernd Wursig) as they work to learn more about dolphins. The main focus is on research into dolphin communication and intelligence, along with some exploration of feeding habits and human interaction. Several species of dolphins are shown, primarily the bottlenose dolphin, the dusky dolphin, and the Atlantic spotted dolphin. Dolphins is narrated by Pierce Brosnan with music by Sting.
There is a scene in the movie where they show a dead killer whale being eaten apart by at least ten sharks. It created a media frenzy, and risk takers would take boats or helicopters, stand on the whale, and taunt the sharks. MIAR
