What an amazing encounter. The mother lifting her calf up like a proud mom showing off her baby. Letting them pet her calf and then she herself wanting to be pet is so incredible.
well I wont steal how genuinely excited the woman was. Maybe she was supposed to be like "hey when can we get back to the hotel and watch The Bachelor?" There are fucking worse things than being happy and truly amazed by something. But not for the easily offended and/or inconvenience I guess.
Or possibly the mother was shielding it's young from a nearby predator, or possibly encouraging it to get some air. But people love to over-romanticize things when it comes to animals, instead of actually considering what could possibly be happening in reality.
@Tara McDonough they're actually really misunderstoods.Sharks don't enjoy human meat,when they attack,it's just because they takes us for dolphins/turtles. Pls look up facts before talking shit next time. PS:Also I understand why some people would like to anthropomorphize animals like that,and frankly,i would like to imagine that,too,and probably would have.
@@cringelord9796 Yes you're right. Great Whites don't really like the taste of us. The shark that has been responsible for most attacks and deaths, I think, is the black tip shark. Which attacked and kill many sailors who were in the water after the USS Indianapolis was torpedoed and sunk, in 1945 during WW2.
These experiences are one of a kind for us humans. I was standing on a bluff on Maui with my binoculars looking for whale blow one January. A mother humpback came close to the shore & pushed her baby up. The little whale opened it's mouth to show its baleen. The mother turned on her side so her huge eye was looking at us. For me it was profound.
@@thegrandnaguslovesmaryjane4583 i mean whales are smart ,but they've probably just lifted them to help them breathe. ALTOUGH THAT WOULD BE SO COOL IT THAT WERE TRUE
What an amazing experience to have. I am aware about the woman screaming, but at the same time, I can feel her exitement. I wont judge her because I wish I was there. Such an amazing moment of nature being beautiful.
I went on a similar trip. It was outstanding. Our friends were on a different boat and one of them had a baby. The baby started crying and suddenly their boat was surrounded by many whales! It was really interesting that they all came to the baby's cries.
I was wondering if the operators have to specifically weight the boats so that when everyone leans over one side like that it doesn't capsize. Either that, or you have your very large nephew come out on the boat with you, and his whole job is just to move to the opposite side every time the tourists try to flip it like that :-P
@Going Frugal Now funny because orca in delphinariums actually drown some trainers to death. With the horrible way they're treated,I can't say it's unjustified...
One of the things that's beautiful about this is that the mother probably knew these people wanted to see her and her calf up close and touch them and post the video on youtube. Great act of kindness on that whale's part.
It's amazing how un afraid they are of us, and it's also why they get into trouble. But, how great of a joy, to have that moment with them. I'd scream with joy too. Thank you very much. I'm glad you got to experience something most people will never touch.
Yes, let's squeal and scream and risk agitating a very large animal in close proximity to a very small boat lol. Fortunately, the momma whale was far calmer than the woman.
I have never seen anything like this before! I am so warm and fuzzy inside! What would it be like to get to see something like this?!? I love whales and dolphins so much
I was amazed how friendly and curious the whales were. They must know boats mean petting, which helps take off some of that itchy bacteria. It was a little disappointing the woman couldn't be a little more quiet so everyone could connect with nature a little more peacefully. Wonderful animals!
Happy Friday! Have you seen this incredible whale encounter? How excited would you be to see a mother gray whale and her calf up close? #ocean #wow #whalewatching
Wow, that was incredible. A once in a lifetime moment. Just... wow. The only reason I didn't like the lady flipping out was because I was afraid she might scare the whales off. When you encounter creatures this amazing in the wild and they aren't viewing you as a threat, respect that and DON'T do anything they might deem as threatening, like screaming, yelling, fast movements, etc. Appreciate the fact that they're trusting you and enjoy the moment with low pitched tones and calm energy.
Actually, when I did this the tour guides told us singing and high-pitched voices attract the whales, as well as splashing our hands on the surface. If they didn't like it they could swim away, but they don't.
@@queenjustine66 that makes sense regarding whales, since they communicate with high pitches. :) I still stand behind not actively panicking in a way that might scare creatures.
I underatand the woman being excited. But my goodness, those screams could almost break the sound barrier. What an awesome experience though. I also thought that the boat was going to tip over or somebody was going to fall out. And wondered if that had happened, what the whales would have done to the humans.
As a whale researcher, I could notice by the whales' postures and eye contact that they were saying what could be translated as: "Lady, shut the fuck up".
I am scratching my head as to why there are dislikes to this. Makes no sense! What a beautiful thing to see! Come on haters why dislike such a beautiful spectacle as this? What is wrong with you all?
Where I live it's forbidden to get closer than 50 meters to the whales. These people are way too close. The whales could get stressed or injured by the boats, The dislikes are because these people do not respect safety distances and disturb wild animals that should be left undisturbed, which is a pretty egoistic move imo. Btw as you can see in the video, the other boats do respect a minimum safety distance.
I agree! If the mum whale would't like it, she would swim away. They very last thing she should do is trust her cub to those people, I think she's proud of her cub & showing off!
I made this trip two years ago and it was just like that! The experience is truly incredible and I recommend it highly. It's important to remember that the boats are only allowed into a small portion of the lagoon, so that the whales have plenty of area to retreat to if they want to be alone. They voluntarily approach the boats to socialize, and no one can explain why! It's especially astounding when you realize that not so many years ago, whalers were slaughtering whales in those very lagoons.
Jesus Christ you're seeing whales not at an amusement park! I'd be silently awing just taking it in. Way to ruin a beautiful moment! I would be dying of happiness if this was me though lol.
Listen everyone, I get that the ladies joy is a little unhinged, but c'mon, she's only genuinely enthralled with the experience of being able to interact with these magnificent beasts. I would probably have a similar reaction, but hopefully at a lower pitch haha.
@@dylancaratsole3811 WHY ARE YOU EVEN BOTHERING TO COMMENT ON A COMMENT ON A 4 YEAR OLD POST? LOLS!!!, JUST HAVING FUN, YOU SHOULD TRY IT !!!, UNLESS YOUR A BIDEN /DEMOCOMMIE, IN THAT CASE THERE IS NO HOPE FOR YOU!!! HAVE A NICE DAY !!!
Beautiful! Absolutely Beautiful! I just hope the whales know good humans from bad humans and dont get close to a boat, trusting them only to get harpooned. But they are pretty intelligent and I dont think the momma would have put her pup in jeopardy if she sensed anything "wrong". Awesome Stuff!
My husband and I celebrated our 50th anniversary in Baja, CA, Mexico. We saw and petted the beautiful balena gris many times. We loved our ponga captains on each trip. It was a wonderful experience for us both. We loved the Sea of Cortez.
To think that they evolved from semi aquatic land mammals, who themselves evolved from aquatic animals (i.e. water to land then back to water), it boggles my mind...enough internet for today
Humans are so amazed that the other animals would have anything to do with us. If the whales only knew what lurked in the minds of desperate humans they'd never approach any boat again.
@@TruthSurge Depends on the animal. For example most pet dogs can tell that there is a difference between good and bad people. Dolphins are said to be second in intelligence only to us, I believe they also have an idea about good and bad humans. I would really love to know what they actually think of us though.
Aw mum was so darn trusting to lift her lil baby out of water like that! :) So sad that this behaviour could get her and her lil one killed if they approach the wrong ppl...
I just read through the comments and I hardly ever comment on youtube, but I was thinking if I was the only one who was annoyed by the woman and of course as it is on youtube... people express their opinion in a very cold way. I was thinking that this is exactly where everything starts: being unaware and not sensitive enough to feel the situation. Yes she's just screaming because she's excited to see those animals and to be able to touch them, there is no reason to be having to express yourself in such a way "this **** should stfu" etc. etc. Really ? Sensitivity and awareness is all we need. Just like this woman and the people who start wasting their energy by getting so mad that they have to write things like that. Beautiful Video though~ . Thank you for sharing!
I know right? These people have nothing to do but hate on people they've never met. Its a wild whale encounter for gods sake, its not something you see everyday. God forbid someone gets carried away and scream out of excitement. And its not like she was filming it specifically for RUclips. Was scrolling the comments to see what other people thought of this awesome encounter and all there was is endless complaints of the screaming. Really people? That's all you got out of the video? Anyway, Thank you for sharing this amazing video. It must have been really amazing to be able to pet a baby whale.
Not at all mad, but sensitivity and awareness was what tha screeming woman lacked. And as these posts show, its not jus someones opinion or perception.
@@1846drte2342342 you guys who complain about the comments of people who prefer to be in awe and feel instead of screeming, are probably the same kind out of touch.
To encounter such creatures that may have lived on Earth before us, humans, indescribable feeling. They have same vibration as the Earth’s. It’s divine. 😌❤️
Wales are great. Often see Orcas around here. Sometimes they come very close, such as cruising under the boats and walkways in the Lund Marina. Incredible. They sometimes do a show for us while sailing to Vancouver Island. Very friendly creatures.
What could have happened is a beautiful peaceful encounter, as two species met eye to eye and considered each other. Instead, a hysterical woman destroyed the encounter with her screeching voice.
these people need to stop screaming and shrieking, the whale can easily spook and grab an arm and pull them into the water, or overturn the boat, thinking its being attacked, I wd be a LOT quieter, to respect the moment and the creature....
1: whales dont "startle" like a cat with a cucumber, they are behemoths of the ocean, they arent exactly scared by lil floating mammals. 2: whales communicate at frequencies that can turn your whole body numb, I doubt they are frightened by the puny decibels humans can put out there. 3: If those ppl bothered them theyd just leave.
+Melvin Johnson I am sure that these whales have seen humans using harpoons to kill other whales. In spite of this, God has placed in the hearts of "savage" beasts the desire to know humans, even the desire to be in submission to humans. These gigantic creatures, who know that they have to power to mash up the boat and kill humans with one swipe of their tails, approached the boat to be petted and to communicate with puny humans.
someone needs to edit the annoying female voice out of that beautiful encounter. It would be good if everyone just watched this incredible gift of nature, but I can understand being so joyous that you would want to touch the whales. Just wonderful and a once in a lifetime experience.
What I would give to see an encounter like that...but IN THE WILD, NOT at an aquarium. To see that would simply put me in a state of shock and euphoria at the same time. I must make plans to go to where they are to see them up close. It's worth the thousands of £ that I'll probably have to spend but it would be worth every pence spent. = )
@balzonurchin It is against the law for anyone to approach orcas, etc. in BC (and in Washington) but it is not against the law for them to approach YOU as happened here.
Enjoy times like these, your great grandchildren may only read about these majestic creatures, or see this footage and say "why did we just sit back and watch them be destroyed?" Great vid, sad potential outcome.
Whats with all these negative comments?? Its a beautiful thing that is happening in this video and people are still looking for negative things. Im sorry for what made you think that way but if you want something to change you gotta change your mindset first. Spread the love.
@@NB-bj6bf in the Baja Peninsula, the gray whales are known for seeking out these encounters with the small boats. They seem to thrive off the encounters as much as the people do, as is evidenced by the behavior of the mother whale. The encounters have been in the thousands, and so far as I can recall, I believe there may have been maybe one instance where the mother had become upset, and I think it may have been because the boat came between the mother and the calf. Otherwise, the whales seem to understand the exuberance expressed by the people. Hence this mother has deliberately brought her baby to them in order to show off her calf!
Hahaha, I was so annoyed by that woman and I thought I would be the only one. I read through the comments and wow, I was right, she's annoying. Kind of takes away from the magic of the moment.
Came here to see a beautiful meeting between two species only to have it ruined by a shrieking banshee in the background... humans can ruin anything wonderful D: Apart from that amazing creatures!
That is really sweet. I'm crying again!!! I wonder WHY the mother did that? I guess she wanted to show her baby to the humans. She was letting the baby have a neat experience too. She was like "look at my baby!!"
It is so wonderful that they allow themselves to be petted, but the screams from especially the woman, is infuriating. Animals have super acute hearing. Respect them by being quiet, or talk softly.
Awesome video I am sure those folks intentions were good and positive and it's beautiful to see people interact with nature. Unfortunately for these whales they seem to have a lot of trust for human touch. I hope and pray those whales don't end up trusting and meeting the wrong group of people.

Theres no medium for transmission.

1: whales dont "startle" like a cat with a cucumber, they are behemoths of the ocean, they arent exactly scared by lil floating mammals. 2: whales communicate at frequencies that can turn your whole body numb, I doubt they are frightened by the puny decibels humans can put out there. 3: If those ppl bothered them theyd just leave.
Whales don't scare they save people
@@vitoparedes95 i wd not count on any whale saving me unless my name was Noah...
Exsactly!
That woman’s voice is actually giving me anxiety.
These kids will never forget this.
WOW! I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS VIDEO! The girl is hilarious too. The mother whale showing off her baby like us humans do. PRICELESS!
this is awesome I am jealous.
I think the mom wanted her calf to see the humans just like the humans wanted to see the whale
This is more spiritual than going to church.
Agreed!
I couldn't agree with you more.
Indeed!!!
MAYBE u should change churches. Awe inspiring YES!

I am sure that these whales have seen humans using harpoons to kill other whales. In spite of this, God has placed in the hearts of "savage" beasts the desire to know humans, even the desire to be in submission to humans.
These gigantic creatures, who know that they have to power to mash up the boat and kill humans with one swipe of their tails, approached the boat to be petted and to communicate with puny humans.
someone needs to edit the annoying female voice out of that beautiful encounter. It would be good if everyone just watched this incredible gift of nature, but I can understand being so joyous that you would want to touch the whales. Just wonderful and a once in a lifetime experience.
i never say this but, please overlay music next time. that lady is just wow.
I am so jealous of these people for having this great experience.
That was absolutely beautiful, except for all the screaming
I bet these people weren't expecting this great of a whale watching experience.
I'm I the only one that found the peoples behavior disturbing ?
NOPE, UR NOT ALONE, THE WHALES SHOULD HAVE MADE A GOOD LUNCH OUT OF THOES PPL.
@@MrAsatryanMR Whales don't eat meat. Except for orcas.
Nature and it´s fantastic inhabitants are really reaching out to us to join them in a different kinder sort of world...
I love it when animals show off their babies to humans. Like look at this cuteness hooman.
What I would give to see an encounter like that...but IN THE WILD, NOT at an aquarium. To see that would simply put me in a state of shock and euphoria at the same time. I must make plans to go to where they are to see them up close. It's worth the thousands of £ that I'll probably have to spend but it would be worth every pence spent. = )
I agree, it would be an incredible honor to witness something like this. =)
They don’t keep these whales in captivity
They are in the wild.
I love this and I love whales!
Meanwhile the guys in the other boat are sitting in their boat extra jelly.
Emocionante!!!! esto demuestra como podemos convivir en paz con las demas especies!0:55 que risa me causa los gritos del tipo!
Beautiful. this is a special moment a mother whale showing off her baby.. wonderful!!!
@balzonurchin It is against the law for anyone to approach orcas, etc. in BC (and in Washington) but it is not against the law for them to approach YOU as happened here.
Enjoy times like these, your great grandchildren may only read about these majestic creatures, or see this footage and say "why did we just sit back and watch them be destroyed?" Great vid, sad potential outcome.
Guess who won't be asked out on the boat again? 😂
What's with that damn hysterical woman? Such an amazing encounter .
Whats with all these negative comments?? Its a beautiful thing that is happening in this video and people are still looking for negative things. Im sorry for what made you think that way but if you want something to change you gotta change your mindset first. Spread the love.
I thought the boat was gonna tip over
same
Wow, F%$@ I LOVE NATURE!
My gosh lady....... totally spazzing out with all her high pitched squeezing. Please calm down. I know it's a whale, but my goodness.
City people nver see whales
I would have done the same thing! If you have ever had this type of encounter, you would know how absolutely thrilling it is!
@@NB-bj6bf in the Baja Peninsula, the gray whales are known for seeking out these encounters with the small boats. They seem to thrive off the encounters as much as the people do, as is evidenced by the behavior of the mother whale. The encounters have been in the thousands, and so far as I can recall, I believe there may have been maybe one instance where the mother had become upset, and I think it may have been because the boat came between the mother and the calf. Otherwise, the whales seem to understand the exuberance expressed by the people. Hence this mother has deliberately brought her baby to them in order to show off her calf!
That was fantastic! Nice job to the captain! 👏
It's like the mother decided to show off her baby to random people and just wanted to hang out with them. The baby is so cute. Whales are awesome!
Hahaha, I was so annoyed by that woman and I thought I would be the only one. I read through the comments and wow, I was right, she's annoying. Kind of takes away from the magic of the moment.
now the whales swim to japan and innocently approach a whaling ship, thinking humans are not dangerous.
Came here to see a beautiful meeting between two species only to have it ruined by a shrieking banshee in the background... humans can ruin anything wonderful D: Apart from that amazing creatures!
what an amazing encounter!! once in a lifetime experience :)
That is really sweet. I'm crying again!!! I wonder WHY the mother did that? I guess she wanted to show her baby to the humans. She was letting the baby have a neat experience too. She was like "look at my baby!!"
It is so wonderful that they allow themselves to be petted, but the screams from especially the woman, is infuriating. Animals have super acute hearing. Respect them by being quiet, or talk softly.
i was waiting for the boat to tip over
or for someone to fall out
and get eaten
Juan Williams Grey whales don't have teeth
What the fuck is the point of a visor if you're going to wear it backwards?
You can use it to stop the back of your neck from getting sunburn...
djmdb
and if you want to get close to what you are trying to view the visor can get in the way and or obstruct vision.
If it's a hat, it covers the crown of the head, hiding it.
Awesome video I am sure those folks intentions were good and positive and it's beautiful to see people interact with nature. Unfortunately for these whales they seem to have a lot of trust for human touch. I hope and pray those whales don't end up trusting and meeting the wrong group of people.
The whales were probably baffled and curious to see what the hysterical screaming and shrieking was about
