From YouTube video: What a sweet heart at magic sands

This whale shark wanted my love, omg what a trip. i was swimming of magic sands on the Big island and suddenly a huge body popped up next to me. I was sitting on my buoy and it startled me enormously. I thought it was a tiger shark. i was afraid first, i've heard of tiger sharks frequently visiting magics. But when I looked under water i saw it was a whale shark. For the past 5 minutes I had been calling the spinner dolphins. It i a sound I make for them to tell them; "Hi, I am here if you want to come." I had just had that crazy thought seconds before of, if I reach the dolphins I can reach any marine animal. I have seen it in Honokahau when i call the dolphins, sometimes tiger sharks would come too. It was like I knew some other being was on its way. And oh waw, he came straight up to me, mouth first. Just like a manta ray would do and than he pushed himself against me. I've heard that they are very gentle, still I could feel a little insecure, because he was so 'pushy'. He would lift his head up trying to touch my body and lift me up on top of him. I gently pushed him a little bit away so could keep on looking in his eye. Oh my God what a trip. It was as if he was cuddling with me. I thought he was big but I think he is just the small version of a mama or papa whale shark...:) Than I lied my hand on him, not to gently push away but to return his love. He was so soft. I wished he stayed a little longer so I got to know him better. What a sweet heart!!!
