Bravo Bao!
Two dolphins who after eating the edges of their pool (they were in captivity) became ill due to the plastic lining lunch getting stuck in their stomachs, were saved yesterday by Bao Xishun, a 7-foot-9 herdsman from Inner Mongolia with 41.7-inch arms.
Vetinary experts tried and failed to extract the offending pieces of plastic with medical implements then turned to the giant whose arms were long and soft enough to reach deep inside the dolphins to pull out the majority of the life threatening pool lining.
The two dolphins are apparently well on their way to making a full recovery with the remaining plastic embedded deep within likely to be broken down over time and passed safely through their internal systems.
Bao, the 54 year old freak of nature was awarded the Guinnes Book of records award for 'tallest living man' in 2005...
