Default Sperm Whale Attacks Boat

Have y'all seen this? Happened yesterday in Japan. 30ft+ sperm whale strayed into a bay. Fishermen tried to drive it out, but it attacked... twice. One man drowned before a rescue boat could get close enough to help. Wild.

Whale experts listening to the tape have reported hearing the whales say

{Revenge,Revenge }followed by {long live Moby}

Looks like the whales are finally getting back on the japs for slaughtering them for so long.

That's what I was thinking.

I'm wondering when the first "Flipper" revolt will occur.

So what were those guys smoking.


I know. Let's tie a rope onto the 30 foot 40 ton whale and just pull him out of here.

They should'a "stabbed it in the head, and brought it home dead."

Ain't that right Dave?

What the video does not show, is the whale boat outside the harbor.

Unbelievable.

Remember the idiot that went swimming with Shamu and friends at SeaWorld after the park had closed? They found him dead with more broken bones than Evil Kneivel. Shamu thought he was a play toy.

Rodger,

They already had it at the dock. They just needed to figure out how to weigh it.

Maybe all of these whale fools will stop messin' with mother nature.

When whales come in they can also get out when they are ready.

Sometimes they come in and beach themselves because they are sick and cannot stay afloat to breathe; so we come along and push them into deeper water to "save" them.

That video should be titled "no good deed goes unpunished". I guess those guys were the unlucky ones to answer the door when kharma came calling, she was looking for retribution for all the whale killings by that country.
Kinda wonder if the shark fin soup score is going to be settled in the same way ? A giant school of 400lb Bull Sharks swim into the bay and gobble up those Japs just like skittles.
Better call Captain Quint and put him on standby.
