Humpback whale throws snorkeller into the air

A humpback whale has been spotted tossing a snorkeller in the air off Australia’s Gold Coast. Two Youtubers were on a swim with the mammals when one of their tour guides was shot out from the water.

  1. Okay the whale could have been going under and its tale did like the slightest lift compared to its size. The snorkelers were in the wrong place at the wrong time. If it was fending off that Yale can do a hell of a lot more damage than that 2000% times worse.

  2. We have loads of humpbacks coming every year to the Dominican Republic where many rules&laws are in order.
    Fines and losing tour operator licenses are consequences of not obeying.
    We do not allow during certain seasons snorkelers in certain areas.
    I'm shocked this is happening in Australia since I was under the impression that they are very advanced with protecting their wildlife.
    In the street of Gibraltar many orcas are attacking boats, I hope because of these provocations, whales dont start attacking in the near future, that would be so sad.

  3. Our people have always known about respecting the boundaries of nature nothing funny about this until someone gets hurt then they will say the whale went crazy

  4. Get out of the ocean. Why are they in the water. OMG we are interfering with wildlife whilst they are just going about their lives. There should be a no go zone for all wildlife.

  5. The world is full of idiots🤨 People should not be able to go too near whales or orcas. It seems as though these brainless idiots think that it's fun.🤨

  6. We have harassed and invaded the land animals and now we are doing the same to sea life!! Laws need in place to leave them alone!!!!!!!

  7. Every day, Aqua Adventures takes people out in their boats. After locating the humpbacks, the paying tourists in wet suits and snorkel gear, jump off the boats and swim with the whales, as close as they can get. The boat plays loud music to attract the whales quickly. The captain thinks the rope the swimmers were hanging onto hit the whale, causing the flick.
