Incredible Footage Of Whale Breach Landing On Kayak [Video]

Ask most people who have been up close and personal with a whale and they’ll probably say it was a tranquil, rather serene experience. These gentle giants are usually happy to keep to themselves, although it appears this particular humpback whale had something against a pair of kayakers.

The incident took place in California, the kayakers swimming through the midst of a large pod of feeding whales. Capt. Michael Sack of Sanctuary Cruises quoted here on Huffington Post:

Kayak whale watching can be extremely dangerous…And one should realize that humpback whales are wild animals and totally unpredictable. It’s a very uncontrolled environment out there.”

It’s all fun and games until someone gets jumped on…That was heavy.

For a point of comparison HERE’S a whale breach you really do want to see, then below one you would prefer to watch from a distance…
