Diver Dwarfed by Ocean Sunfish Off Mexico Coast
A diver on an expedition off the coast of Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, captured stunning footage showing the moment another swam alongside a sunfish. Sea diving https://www.instagram.com/bringasdive/">tour operator Luis Miguel Gutierres Bringas, who captured the encounter, told Storyful it was a "once-in-a-lifetime moment". "Finding a sunfish in its natural habitat is a privilege that few can experience. And we were lucky enough to swim with him, observe its behaviour and learn more about these amazing animals," he said. The ocean sunfish is the world's heaviest bony fish, weighing in at about 5,000 pounds, according to https://www.montereybayaquarium.org/animals/animals-a-to-z/ocean-sunfish">Monterey Bay Aquarium.
