Now here's a weird story. We normally don't post news of accidents in diving or otherwise ... but this one is too strange to ignore.
A dolphin has jumped into a boat off New Zealand's North Island, critically injuring a woman in what was probably a world first according to experts.
The 27-year-old woman was struck by the leaping dolphin near
Slipper Island in the western reaches of the Bay of Plenty yesterday afternoon.
She was admitted to Auckland Hospital's intensive care unit in a serious condition. The dolphin was unharmed.
