This footage shows one close call for two kayakers… We just can’t imagine just how shocked they must have been! We got chills just watching!
Larry Plants, a passenger on a Sanctuary Cruise line, caught this hair-raising moment on camera in Moss Landing, off the coast of California.
The whale watching cruise was following a group of humpback whales feeding in the area, but there happened to be a lot of kayakers there, too.
Without warning, a humpback launched its massive body out of the water, almost landing on top of two unsuspecting kayakers. The couple was quickly helped by others close by. Luckily no one was harmed — the humans were only a little shaken.
That must have been one scary moment for those individuals. Just look at how tiny these people are compared to the whale’s body! They are definitely very lucky to have come away without any injuries.
Humpbacks seem to have a knack for close calls with humans — just like this pod of whales who got a little too close for comfort or these whales who gave kayakers a little lift!
We’re just glad these two are okay!
