Whale lands on boatbyu/Cully33innextfuckinglevel
Seeing a whale up close during a fishing trip can be an exciting experience.
But recently it rapidly turned into a tricky situation for two people at sea.
They were thrown into the ocean after a humpback whale capsized their boat off the coast of New Hampshire.
Luckily, they were quickly rescued by other boaters and had no serious injuries.
The nerve-wracking moment in which the whale breaches and lands on the boat was caught onvideo.
The clip was taken by 16-year-old Colin Yager, who was on a different boat with his brother Wyatt.
After noticing the whale, he began to record, never expecting what he would capture.
For Paquette and Kenney, everything happened in slow motion.
When I turned, the whale’s head was already landing on the engine, Paquette recalls.
Truly grateful to them, says Paquette.
They were making the video, dropped everything, zoomed right over and plucked us out.
Despite the happy ending, this is something none of the involved will soon forget.
It’s kind of a miracle that I’m alive, says Kenney.
I don’t know what was going through my head.
Just, kind of, survival.
12 NM east of Odiorne Point State Park.
The occupants were ejected from the vessel as the boat capsized.
A good samaritan recovered both individuals from the water.
No injuries were reported.
We are grateful to the good samaritans for taking such quick action to rescue these two individuals.
