March 5th was a day that the Sun emitted a large and significant solar flare - I wonder if this impacted the dolphins sonar and caused them to beach themselves?

So great that it happened at a time when there were people there to help. Would've been very sad otherwise.

I wonder if it WAS the solar flares that sent the dolphins fleeing to land. I loved how one tourist looked at his wife, and you could see him deciding... stripping down and jumping in to grab one of the dolphin tails. Extraordinary video!
