This Sea Turtle Likes Its Chin Scratches

A diver sparked a close friendship deep under the water.

Beau Greaves recently posted this viral video on social media, showing him getting up close and personal with a sea turtle. Apparently he spent over three hours around the turtle, swimming around her and ignoring her, before he finally gained her trust. The friendship and the video start from there, with the diver feeding the sea turtle underwater plants.

Their friendship develops quickly however, and it soon involves chin scratching, games of Follow the Leader, and snuggles. The turtle lies on his chest and even goes for a ride at one point.

Check out this unlikely and adorable friendship below.
