Video: Film Crew Rescues Turtle In Bermuda
While on the island recently in order to shoot the film The Pearls of Malabar, the film’s crew had the opportunity to lend a hand to a turtle that had been tangled up in fishing line.
A video detailing the event says, “The filming crew of “Pearls of Malabar,” which is currently filming on the Bermuda island, was out shooting today when they saw something floating in the water, a turtle had been tangled up in fishing line. The team successfully rescued and freed the turtle before starting to film.”
Crew member Kristin Steede said, “The filming crew was out shooting near Admiralty House when they saw something floating in the water – a green turtle had been tangled up in fishing lines.
“The team successfully rescued and freed the turtle before starting to film. What a start to our day of filming.”

Good stuff! People need to be more careful with their lines
Terrific. The little ones are happy too, replaying video all morning. “Is turtle ok now? Where did it go?” Assured them turtle ok, most likely with its family now.
Hi Rosie!
The turtle swam away out to the ocean in very good form. In fact, later… while filming, the turtle paid us a return visit and circled around our boat before heading off to do the wonderful things that turtles do. Also, we cleared out all the extra fishing lines and netting we could find
Rosie,
Here is a longer video of “Steve” swimming away if you (and the little ones) would like to watch.
