He’s making another splash. The entitled tourist charged with hurling a massive rock at an endangered Hawaiian monk seal claims he was actually doing a good thing – by trying to save a pair of helpless turtles. Igor Lytvynchuk, 38, was hit with federal charges and beaten up by locals after the caught-on-video incident at a Lahaina beach on May 5, but was only trying to protect the turtles — known locally as honu — by scaring the beloved seal away, his lawyer told reporters.
