Terrifying viral footage captured by a father in Chile shows the moment a humpback whale surfaced and briefly engulfed his 24-year-old son, Adrián Simancas, and his yellow kayak
The incident occurred in the Strait of Magellan as the father filmed from a nearby kayak. After being dragged underwater for several seconds, the young man was released completely unharmed [cite: 1.1.5]. Marine biologists explain that humpback whales are baleen filter-feeders with throats roughly the size of a grapefruit, making it physically impossible to swallow a human.
