Fishermen
encounter a curious humpback whale just feet away from their boat in Canada
The Telegraph, 28 Feb 2014
Two
fishermen in Canada filmed their chance encounter with a curious humpback
whale, which swam under their boat and even appeared to perfom 'tricks' for
them.
"Words
cannot describe the sheer exhilaration of seeing such a magnificent sight. I
could say it was pretty damn cool and that would be a huge under statement.
"Experiences
like these make people seem insignificant amongst nature's grandest animals. My
wife laughs but I sensed intelligent interaction with the humpback," said
Mr Egan on his YouTube account.
"Smart
whale or not, I kept the boat motor in neutral, since I figured a boat making
noise below a 40 ton whale is likely safer that being in a quiet boat!
Eventually,
the whale dropped back in the tidal current and the fisherment had enough room
to start the motor up and move away.
