This is the fascinating moment a little girl attracted dolphins to her at an aquarium by using a genius scientific trick.
The girl, was visiting SeaWorld, Orlando, on February 12 with her family, which she was ‘really excited about’ because she wanted to play with the dolphins.
Before embarking on the big day out, she did online research and found that she could attract the mammal by strumming the teeth of the comb up against the glass.
In the clip, she is seen watching the animals curiously come over to her as other children join her and look on in wonderment.
Her father, Brad Meszarous said: ‘My daughter tried several different ways to have the SeaWorld dolphins come to her.
‘She tried different toys, a cell phone, tapping the glass, and different movements, none of these worked consistently for her.
‘She did some online research and found the comb method and thought she’d give it a try.
‘The next time she went to SeaWorld, she played the comb for the dolphins and they loved it!’
The sensation works as the noise that is made by running a finger up and down a comb sounds similar to a dolphin call – attracting the sea animals to it.

The sensation works as the noise that is made by running a finger up and down a comb sounds vaguely like a dolphin call attracting the dolphins over
The little girl stayed at the park until dark where dolphins were still attracted to the comb noise
