Here's a similar incident of a dolphin seeking help from divers. You often hear stories of Dolphins helping divers/swimmers but this is pretty unusual.
The dolphin had a hook and fishing line entangled around it's pectoral fin and actually approaches local divers for assistance off the coast in Hawaii! Pretty remarkable interaction between dolphin and man: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature...&v=CCXx2bNk6UA

There is no doubt that the Dolphin knew what it was doing.
The diver did a great job.
