Giant whale shocks whale watchers in the Antarctic
Whoops! The tail of a giant humpback whale could have knocked these surprised tourists off their boat.
The incredible moment in the Antarctic was captured on camera by tour guide Tony Beck, who was watching from another boat.
As the whale’s tail crashed back into the water, the boat almost capsized but, luckily, no-one was hurt.
Coincidentally, the two fins of a whale’s tail are known as its flukes – there’s no doubt that it was a fluke to get this picture and another to survive to tell the tale!
