A mesmerizing "dolphin stampede" was captured on video off the coast of Dana Point in Southern California, with around 5,000 dolphins swimming through the water on top of each other, according to touring company Capt. Dave’s Whale Watching. https://abcnews.visitlink.me/9nkoQl | ABC News

Dolphin Stampede! Here in Southern California, we love our common dolphin! They’re always amazing to see but once in a while, you’ll be lucky enough to see them stampeding. There are several reasons that they may do this including evading a predator or moving quickly to get to food. This awesome encounter was filmed yesterday while aboard @newportcoastaladventure and shows our friend @justinkezmoh on the red boat with his friends. #ocoutdoors #dolphin #commondolphin #seaworldsucks #nature #wildl
