Our hearts have stopped after the release of a video in which a child interacts with a frightening sea creature that suddenly emerges above water. The friendly meeting was recorded on film, and has reached thousands of people’s eyes causing great shock amongst everyone.
A sea creature appears
The interaction takes place in the Spanish island La Gomera, more specifically in the port of Valle Gran Rey. In the video, you can see how the child comes close to the water, and after a few seconds a terrifying creature seems to appear.
A trustful bond
Without any fear, the child starts feeding the creature, to which it responds with the same trust. The child then goes onto caressing the animal, and it lets him do so.
The animal has been reckoned to be a huge stingray. It’s worth noting that these creatures are not known to be aggressive, as long as they are not given a reason to be.
Video gone viral
The shocking video shows the amazingly trustful bond that is created by the child and the stingray. This is probably why it has gone viral on social media, with millions of likes and over 750 comments. Our faith in humanity has been restored!
