NORTH KARELIA, RUSSIA: A pair of divers were flabbergasted to encounter a fame-hungry Beluga. A PHOTO-BOMBING Beluga was RUSSIAN to hog the limelight when it surprised a pair of divers. The two divers took the plunge 20-foot deep into Russia’s ice cold White Sea, but little did they know one fame-hungry Beluga was going to run ARCTIC-CIRCLES around them.

However, as the female cosied-up to Andrey’s pal the boisterous male could not have been more willing to take part – in fact he became so excited by the experience he decided to steal the show by swimming right into Andrey’s camera lens.
