Manta Rays Jumping High

Manta Rays Jumping High
 

Flying giants: Incredibly rare display as manta rays leap 9ft out of water into the air

They could be mistaken for strange-looking birds but these creatures are actually manta rays, leaping a staggering nine feet in the air.

The plucky animals, which measure just over three feet wide, demonstrate their acrobatic skills by bursting out of the water.

Once airborne they to flap their impressive fins in what looks like an attempt to fly.
