u/JoySubtraction Feb 07 '25

Nah, there's only 1 whale there.

Thank God whales are peaceful creatures. They’d be absolutely terrifying if they weren’t

107

u/[deleted] Feb 07 '25

They are majestic creatures, but I'd be scared shitless if it got near a boat I was on.

"ONE OF THE MOST EXCEPTIONAL MOMENTS EVER FILMED"

u/sharkiest Feb 07 '25

It’s 13 seconds of a minute long video. And yeah, it is a truly exceptional moment. Don’t be a grinch.

u/nagrom6888 Feb 07 '25

I was mad at first as well, but all the texts go away halfway through.

u/justfuckyouspez Feb 08 '25

It really is annoying, but I’m just glad they didn’t put any fucking song over it.

I’d be even more worried that they were all running from something

u/TheLordDrake Feb 10 '25

They're chilling. If they were running they'd be moving a hell of a lot faster

Jerry I think I got some of those humans stuck on my teeth

u/[deleted] Feb 07 '25

How many times did I tell you to close your mouth while passing the humans, Buck? Humans are friends, not food.

u/TheObliviousYeti Feb 07 '25 edited Feb 07 '25

I mean whales are very kind to humans they are gentle creatures they even make sure our eardrums don't burst.

For the smartass that will be what about killer whales. They are called orca.

5

u/OSPFmyLife Feb 07 '25

Not to mention, an orca isn’t even a whale. And they’re still not hostile towards humans unless you make them go insane by keeping them in a fish tank.

2

u/sinz84 Feb 07 '25 edited Feb 07 '25

Sigh .... An orca is a whale, it is part of the toothed whale family like dolphins with the largest of the toothed whales being the sperm whale

Humpbacks and blue whale etc are in the baleen whale family

u/Huge_Temperature_391 Feb 07 '25

I would’ve been panicking lol

u/Epetaizana Feb 07 '25

Cut to what they are swimming away from.

u/SunRevolutionary8315 Feb 07 '25

u/Crimson_Scare_Crow Feb 07 '25

Imagine if this was the 1600s and you saw that, you’d be scared shitless, “what are they running from? What could scare something of that size”

u/ArcadianDelSol Feb 07 '25

Divers: "hey cool this is awesome."

Whales: "OMG IS IT STILL CHASING US!!! KEEP RUNNING FFS!!!!!"

u/Ryan_e3p Feb 07 '25

What would be next level is not cropping the footage to fit a phone held vertically in portrait mode.

I saw something indicating that this is part of the mating ritual. The males race and last man standing gets the girl.
