Sneaky Seal Attempts to Remove English Diver's Hood

Ben Burville had his hands full as he dived in the waters off the English coast as a mischievous grey seal attempted to remove his hood.

Burville, a scuba diver who works as a doctor in the coastal town of Amble, Northumberland, by day, has built up a rapport with seals in the area after nearly 20 years diving among them.

In footage originally posted on Twitter, the playful seal approaches the diver before biting and attempting to pull at his headgear. Credit: Ben Burville via Storyful
