Two kind-hearted tourists pushed a stranded whale back into the sea in southern China.

The video was filmed in the city of Huizhou in Guangdong Province.

A tourist named Mr Pu spotted the stranded whale when he was taking a walk on the beach. So did another man walking his dog.

Pu and the dog walker then decided to help the whale return back to the sea. They also called the local coast guard for assistance.

Pu said, the whale was around 5 metres long and it took them around half an hour to push it back into the sea.

Finally, the whale swam back to the sea with the help of the big waves.

However, the whale reportedly got stranded again on January 29 and died.

The whale remains have been brought back to the Huizhou Fishery Research and Extension Center.

1月28日，广东惠州双月湾，游客蒲先生在海边散步时发现了一头鲸鱼搁浅，蒲先生接受采访称：“鲸鱼没有挣扎，被浪花打了个滚，就在岸边摆动尾巴，看着挺可怜的，肚皮都刮红了。”当时还有一名在遛狗的男子也看到了这条鲸鱼，于是两人商量一起帮助鲸鱼回海，同时他们报海警请求支援。据蒲先生透露，鲸鱼长约5米，他们俩花了半小时才推了十几米远，最终在大浪的助力下鲸鱼顺利游回大海。令人惋惜的是，这条鲸鱼在29日又再次搁浅，相关工作人员赶到的时候已经死亡，目前鲸鱼的遗体已拉回惠州市渔业研究推广中心基地。
