I was a scuba diver from the time I hit 12 years old into my 30's & I've seen some really beautiful things under water and what you did by removing the hook from the Goliath groupers eye was a real act of kindness that some animals will actually remember and even recognize the one that helped them to get from the trap that they were in & probably would have died in if someone hadn't saved them,, so God bless you for giving him his life back because the danger level was extremely high for those few minutes.
