The Dolphins (Score)-Joby Talbot

[00:07.225] It's an important and popular fact [00:10.066] that things are not always what they seem. [00:14.131] For instance, on the planet Earth, [00:16.684] man had always assumed that [00:18.263] he was the most intelligent species occupying the planet, [00:21.718] instead of the third most intelligent. [00:24.409] The second most intelligent creatures were of-cause dolphins. [00:28.075] who, curiously enough, [00:29.685] had long known of the impending destruction of the planet Earth. [00:33.085] They'd made many attempts to alert mankind, [00:36.015] but most of their communications were misinterpreted [00:38.430] as amusing attempts to punch footballs or whistle for tidbits. [00:42.151] So they eventually decided they would leave Earth by their own means. [00:46.651] The last ever dolphin message was misinterpreted [00:49.771] as a sophisticated attempt to do a backward somersault [00:53.589] through a hoop, whistling the star-spangled banner. [00:56.502] In fact, the message was this: [00:58.685] So long and thanks for all the fish.
