If there had been a Youtube in the 1940s, this film would have been a million viewed video! “Aquafrolics” features underwater ballet, a circus troupe of performers eating and smoking underwater, the Marine Studios in Florida where porpoises perform for the crowd and mermaid girls in one-piece swimsuits can be seen through an underwater window, sharks and a giant turtle battling a deep sea diver, water skiing stunts, Australian surf boarding, Mazatlan or Acapulco cliff diving, kayaking, puddle jumper swamp race boats a la James Bond and “LIve and Let Die”, and more.
