It’s not news to us that the life expectancy of animals at sea continues to decline as the amount of waste in the ocean increases. These four turtles in the video, were caught in such a life-threatening situation when they got tangled in stray fishing nets and a bunch of trash.

The nice sailor named Magnus took it upon himself to leave the comfort of his boat and carefully untangled all four sea turtles. Some of them struggled, possibly due to the fear of being attacked, but Magnus managed to set all of them free by cutting the nets with a pair of scissors.

It is always exciting to see kind-hearted people like Magnus and his partner, who are willing to go out of their way to rescue animals that are suffering because of other people’s reckless behavior.
