Me too. You always hope for the best in these situations, but there's seemingly usually nothing much they can do once the animal starts repeatedly beaching itself

Yes, I hope he did have some idea that they were helping him.

Someone was saying earlier today that whales are quite intelligent so I keep trying to think of that and maybe on some level he was calm.

Whales and dolphins are highly intelligent, sensitive creatures so I think that is very probable.
