The amount of strength they have in their tails to be able to lift their entire body mass out of the water... imagine getting slapped by a whale tail LOL
Not to scare you, but I heard even being swept by one of their fins has enough force to kill someone! It’s never happened, but it’s honestly so fascinating that these beautiful creatures can power through oceans with how big they are :)
that'll the slap of reality 😂
Claire Sabol Whales are indeed super fascinating! To add onto what you’re saying, the reason why no one has ever died from a whales tail is because they seem to be very careful in trying not to harm us. They seem to love us the same way we love them!
There are video of Killer Whale tail slapped a sealion, launched it almost 30 meters in the air
Aeeldora I’ve seen that 😂 thank god they don’t do that to us
I wonder if they find us as cool as we find them, like they just talk to eachother
“bruhh you’ll never believe what i saw today”
“Whats that?”
“A group of humans chilling on the surface I totally did a backflip to see them better”
“Bro thats so cool!”
I wonder if they can talk to each other just like we can xD
Edit: Oop I was so dumb when I wrote this comment TwT
I know that they can communicate with each other now- You don't have to correct me anymore lol

“They were screaming, they probably thought my flip was really cool!”
Awww that's adorable
@@rahh47. All animals have a way to communicate with each other

3:35 is just unreal. And to see the person next to it for scale. Absolutely breathtaking… we must protect these majestic creatures at all costs!
Where is the person?
They‘ll can go extinct, they are fckng terryfing. I’ll start using plastic from now on
@Hank J. Wimblenton 🤓🤓🤓
We dont need to protect shit…..if just leave everything as it is nature takes it course automatically
They so terrifying in size🥲
4:38 Hearing these kids’ once in a lifetime excitement put a real smile on my face. Thank you for keeping the original audio and not replacing it for some house music.
The ocean is fascinating and scary as Hell at the same time
True
FACTS but the land is also
Dani
H yeeeessss!
my thoughts exactly
The Hell is fascinating and scary as ocean at the same time
I’m not sure what’s more impressive, that something that big is able to move that fast in the water, or that there are humans with enough balls to get that close to a creature that big. I get butterflies in my stomach from behind the screen, I cannot imagine being there in person. Absolutely incredible creatures.
Agreed
Iam scared of getting swallowed by this giant whale!
I would probably be less scared in person. Because of the adrenaline
They are extremely aware and intelligent they're brain is bigger than a humans whole body mass they won't harm you if you're not a threat
I was thinking the same thing. Not sure I could have been in the water with them.
@@onma07ksa I believe their throat is too small for a human to be completely swallowed
I don't think people realize how lucky it is for something like this to occur. Really is once in a lifetime experience.
IT'S NOT RARE lol
Sometimes I wonder if they’re like: “There’s a whole other dimension up there! If you go fast enough you can just barely break through and drop back into ours!”
I think they do! There’s no explanation for why sea creatures breech, and curiosity is one of the theories
It's still mind-boggling to me that they're so massive and can just throw themselves out of the water
As if it’s nothing.
@@mineismineokay_tps they’re massive and they can just throw themselves and I am a lot smaller and can’t do a single push-up
@@arelysrivera4762 xd
@Marcus Carpenter Elephant is 20 times bigger then humans. But it can't jump bro.

"Hey Gary, those Woooh-people are here again!"
"Cool, I'm gonna take a look!"

If I ever see a humpback whale in the wild, Imma ask him: Are you Gary?" 👍
Guys isn't no one going to talk about everything starting from 6:01?? That's pure art and I truly wish the person who filmed that got at least lots of appreciation
Oh yeah that's pretty special actually. Nice spot.
The momma and baby…breathtaking!! ❤ 🐋
3:35 Imagine being faced to face with a whale like this, I would simply pass out then and there.
@Hank J. Wimblenton it's close enough don't have to correct him:/
Which whale is it ?
That's what I said. Especially with the whale being so still like that, I would crap my pants
At least with a Blue whale as opposed to a shark or something like that is there's comfort in knowing that it doesn't wanna harm you, and also that you are swimming with THE biggest thing in the ocean. You literally can't encounter a bigger animal on the planet
It's really surreal to see an animal that weighs several dozen TONS fly through the air.
I thought it was a Kraken! Haha
Janeil Nold then you realize that you can barley jump out of the water
@@gavinkaemingk247 we can't what you mean barely
Helluva lot more then a few tons, their hearts alone are like a ton
@@Shaqueefalot Since when did "several dozen tons" become a few tons?
The fact that anyone could harm this magnificent creatures is simply beyond my comprehension.
it tastes good
same goes for any other animal, which is why veganism exists
By littering also contribute to the fact
Japan.
@@legamature used to be the u.s and most of the world we almost hunted them to extinction.
I actually hate the ocean. Someone said that the ocean was scarier than space and I believe that
It definitely is!
But space has black holes⬛⬛⬛⬛ 🕳⬛⬛⬛⬛
You hate what you fear.. Never heard that before...
Space is way scarier, but the reason I fear the ocean more is due to accessibility. I’m prolly never going to space so I don’t need to worry about the terrors that are within space unless they threaten the existence of Earth. I can drive less than 100 miles and jump into the ocean.
Space is incredibly violent
Throw me in the water with the beast 🐋
On his way down he made eye contact with the whole boat like "I could have ruined everyone's day"
😭🤣
I can't imagine how insanely cool and humbling it must be to swim right next to a giant whale.
Right!
they will eat u
@@ohsehun6470 most whales, are not dangerous
Have you seen the video of whales coming up to people to look at them and then roll over for belly rubs? I love how amazing whales are.
I Think it would be amazing. I'm planning on travelling to a certain place and going for a whale seeing tour on a boat just because they are so fascinating!
The little segment 3:37-4:20 in which the whales are sleeping is breathtaking. It is so quietly intimate. I'm glad it was included.
Wow so they were sleeping?! I wondered why they were so still! So amazing!!
when u know u r the giant so u sleep floating
@@vanzziniartstudio I guess so, they have their eyes closed. So cute
If anyones wondering they do breath when sleeping. Half of their brain is asleep but the other half has the body swims up to get air unconscious every few minutes
@@HDMGDH read it again
I admire your bravery for getting in there and swimming with these Wells.
Some of the best film footage I’ve ever seen of whales in their natural habitat. Thanks for making this available.
**Whale jumps**
People: woo!! Hoo!! **Cheer**
Whale: ooh they like that .. let me go closer to them..
**Whale jumps onto the ship**

Lol
lllooolll
That’s why I will never go whale watching
LOL
@@jonathanthomas9677 do it, whales (ESPECIALLY) and all ocean life are very intelligent and love performing for humans! Sharks are the only ones to really “worry” about, because they attack out of thinking your a fish.
if whales could speak, they would probably sound like the 'bruh' sound effect
0:45 - 1:09 the slow motion sound totally sounded like a lion roaring not a whale!!!!
Watch this lion roaring video from 0:43 - 1:10 and tell me the whale sound exactly like that lion...
I think someone audio clipped in a lion not a whale!!!
ruclips.net/video/uFcZhH_wFbs/видео.html
Whales can speak, especially sperm whales. Their communication is showing itself to be much more sophisticated than our own. Not to mention their massive brain size, combined with their extremely large and developed regions of the brain responsible for conscious thought, and speech. They even have different dialects. Scary to think but as research progresses, it’s starting to look like they are much more intelligent than humans, with their body anatomy being their limiting factor of course.
@@m200mw dude chill its a joke

I’m not saying it’s not, just because you don’t find that information interesting doesn’t mean others won’t as well, regardless.
@@m200mw i appreciate the effort and i find that interesting but _its just a joke_ (no offense)
It's hard to believe that these majestic beasts actually exist in this world we live in

YES, thats ICONIC, I know they wouldnt hurt me but i’d still be terrified

@@bubbaandtheoldmanauburnspo214 bro how im going to the ocean when im scared just by looking down to the ocean
yeah, that shot was very intoxicating
It doesnt even move, its just vibin'
Breath taking...such majestic, peaceful creatures...I could watch them all day 🙂
"Excuse me, do you have a moment to talk about our lord and savior poseidon?"
2:28
I don't understand how some countries can slaughter these magnificent animals
Oh please, he says "some countries", its better to say some people, look into your history whatever country you are from chances are the people from your country did the same thing. It's amazing what you can do when you are poor or greedy, by the way some people did for sport, ALL OVER THE WORLD. Europeans traveled especially all over the world to kill exotic animals.
I think the same it’s so sad
It tastes good
I'ts a job or source of income for some, for others perhaps it's tradition.
@@CLN-X11 lol u eat whale everyday?
Seeing a whale breaching is like the non fantasy equivalent of seeing a dragon in flight. Can't imagine anything more mesmerizing
Seeing a quetzalcoatlus flying would be the real life equivalent of seeing a dragon straight up
@@wantedwario2621 A reptile pelican as tall as a giraffe, that would indeed be a sight to behold
I couldn't do what these guys do. I'll admire these animals from afar
Whales: lemme test if there’s gravity in game, YEP.
3:35 this shot of the whales is historic. i mean look at this absolutely MASSIVE Creature. Beautiful and terrifying at the same time.
Also the fact they're completely still makes it almost look like a sculpture!
Are they sleeping?
He just vibin
@LK Gaming Reviews Actually that's somewhat incorrect. A Great White seen attacking and killing a humpback whale early last year. Granted the whale was in poor condition it does show that Great White Sharks will attack larger animals if presented with the right oppertunity.
@@CarlosHuiskens because a shark killed a whale doesn’t mean it’s more dangerous
My phobia of deep water is worse than I thought ;-;
I feel you
Doesn't help when you can't swim either.
Your fear is called Thalassophobia. I have it too.
Same , also sea creatures frighten me even tho I think they’re beautiful, seeing these diverse swim with the whale gives me anxiety, I don’t know how they do it
Rip
I’m sorry I would absolutely shit myself if I were in these situations.
Stg lol 💯😂
Yup I would too, shit It seems like I have thalassophobia or sum shit like that, I would never dare to do that and I hate the sea/ocean, the feeling of not knowing what's under you is terrifying
6:07 that close up to the eye is insane
1:43 is seriously one of the most fascinating things I’ve ever seen. It’s a gigantic swarm of small fish, attracting a feeding frenzy of many predators at once. First, the swimming birds, then the huge whale, then all those sharks & dolphins come out of nowhere. Absolutely amazing.
It aint fascinating it's f*cking creepy, like damn, it scared me a lot!!!!!
There's always a bigger fish 👀
@@itzmemrc8728 haha fascinating, yet terrifying for me
He coulda got swallowed
@@Virusify I believe the whale would just spit him out if my memory serves me right.
It's kind of scary to see them freeze just like that underwater.
so true.... its like that in cartoons...
and also their heavy breathes
Facts
@@whitevsdarkasmr that was the diver
@@whitevsdarkasmr whales don’t breathe under water bruv.
They were sleeping :)
The underwater footage is so fantastic. I love whales and particularly this breed because they are the largest animals on Earth. Magnificent footage.
Is it me or @ 5:27 the whale looked like a pickle 😂
See, I LOVE whales and the ocean, but just the idea of swimming around and suddenly such a gigantic beast pops up besides you gets me running home and hide under my blanket
Yeah, I would probably be like 'ITS A MEGALODON! ITS A SHAAAAAAAARK! And then I'd yeet it back into the boat or yeet it away
Same here. They’re so mesmerizing and beautiful but scary at the same time
Myrna that’s why you DONT love ocean. Stop lying to urself
@@peptobismolveins uhm yes, I do love the ocean, just not the idea of a big frickin whale right next to me

3:04 seeing the other whale scared the hell outta me😣
6:07 his eye waaaaw it's so beautiful
The eyes chico
Hes looking blazed ngl
Their acceptance of people even with their babies really makes me wonder if mermaids exist.
fun-fact: sailors back in the day thought that whale songs actually came from mermaids
well if they had the anatomy structure too feed off of people and actual fish it would be a completely different story
@@zoom-zip3473 sperm whales do yet I haven’t really seen any of them eat or kill someone you should look up sperm whale in counter if they are able to eat giant squid then you will see that they really have accepted humans around them its almost like they are thinking what we are thinking when we are up next to each other like OMG A HUMAN I HAVE NEVER SEEN ONE BEFORE MAYBE ITS FRIENDLY they are truly intelligent and beautiful creatures and they could easily eat us
@@LuLu-wd4oo well your right but that was really just one case what im saying is that they most of them dont
🤣🤣
All of the shots are out of this world feeling. What was going on with the underwater Birds, dolphins, whale, fish and sharks all at once? The sleeping Whales... ahh! My heart! The people in the water near them & on the boat got a feeling they'll never forgot and have no words to explain it properly. Just beautiful video shots...Thank you.
imagine if blue whales could record close encounters with humans
3:46 this whole scene looks like it’s from interstellar or something 😳
I've seen that movie
@@victoria8838 ok good job you should be so proud!
Yea its crazy how creatures on this earth look like something from outer space! The sea truly does scare me yet i want to explore it so bad

Thats not Real
1:45 that would be terrifying to just look down at the darkness and see this huge open mouth coming for you
I like ur profile pic, cap'n levi
@ItsWalker she changed her profile pic
Hampter scream
The most scary thing is that you don't see the danger until it is few meters away from you.
Whales are just so chill tbh, no malicious or scary demeanor whatsoever. Just vibing in the deep.
Bro in slow motion, everyone’s reaction sounds like the whale 🤣
🤣😂🤣 so true
Haha that’s what I was thinking
Whales are smart, magnificent creatures. THEY KNOW why the "watchers" are there. So they put on a spectacular show, demonstrating their magnificence, hopeful humans will always protect them. I, for one, will ALWAYS side with the whales... whether they put on a show, or not. 💕💕💕
Dont they jump to get barnacles off
Me too! They're amazing!
Well half of what you said is bollox but ok
Mama Ames - I do know Dolphins do that, but I get what you were saying. Whales communicate too by jumping in and out of water and making a large noise/sound. Not to humans, but usually to other whales far off, or for many other reasons.
0:45 - 1:09 the slow motion sound totally sounded like a lion roaring not a whale!!!!
Watch this lion roaring video from 0:43 - 1:10 and tell me the whale sound exactly like that lion...
I think someone audio clipped in a lion not a whale!!!

1:55 facial expresion is priceless 💪🏻😵
It's cute how excited humans get over whales jumping out of the water
0:39 Imagine being on a boat in ancient times and being one of the first people to see a whale....
That's where all the stories of sea monsters come from
People call you crazy.
"Its true there was a sea dragon, like 50 meters"
Crazy man of the town
OutTour évolution. Did you know whales used to look like dogs?
What's crazy was there were many more whales and they were propably bigger too, must've been so scary
Fantastic! Let's all protect our oceans so many more scenes like this can be experienced!
Elizabeth Czepiel I agree 😊
Great statement 😎
Or maybe clean the oceans so they can live in peace
I totally agree Elizabeth... and very well said.
I absolutely love the “WOO HOO” guy that’s always on the boat
They should have a cannonball contest held for whales only 😂
1:42 damn I saw whales, Sharks and birds in one second
I even saw a mermaid, the Ocean is teaming w life
Oh i thought they were dolphins because of the squeaking noise lol
Zombieo _43 they had vertical tail fins
And a man
@@zombieo_43 I only see sharks but dolphins could be there also
5:50 Such a beautiful moment and amazing close up. A mother’s love is just spectacular in all of nature’s creations! (:
😭😭❤️❤️❤️❤️
I know❤️
Isaiah Simpson yes 1000% whales and dolphins have a very close bond to their mothers, generally never leave their mums side. Also sir this has nothing to do with the whales but u are fine as hell 🤪
realy my brother care about you but what after die?islamreligion.com
Wow!! Majestic gentle giants 🥰 I love seeing and hearing people so excited to see them up close!
Those experiences are priceless 😳❤️
3:42 that's one of the most beautiful shots of a whale imo, just two intelligent creatures observing each other calmly
" Just two intelligent creatures observing each other" - you mean the two whales?
There dead bruh
@Niranjan Rajesh I agree that shit's emo, but must also admit that humans ARE shit
@@adityachakrabarti3164 Just not true is it. Hundreds of thousands of different cultures and billions of inventions other species' could not even dream about. If we're such a 'horrible species' why not make it one less of us starting with yourself eh? Hell, we might as well all do it with your logic. Fuck off, the main objective for a species is to survive and reproduce, and we've mastered that, along with actually making new meanings to life instead of reproducing.
@@laurikotivuori1585 I meant humans, as a species, to the rest of the life on Earth. Sure, there are many humans who are nice and try to do their best for other humans, as well as for all other life forms. But as a species, we humans are the ones who have the biggest part in the damage done to the Earth.
The guys swimming with them have balls. Like even if whales dont intend to eat humans accidents might happen. Id be so scared.
In the case of a lot of whales, they don't have a big enough throat to swallow a human. You put anything bigger than an orange inside a blue whale's mouth and buddy ain't swallowing it, they consume smaller pray.
And mind you, blue whale is the biggest creature to ever exist
@@laurikotivuori1585 doesnt mean they have to eat you they can hit u by mistake or anything also imagine they catch u in their mouth and release u deep in the ocean
@@alexghebenei5850 The scenario is scary to think about, but almost impossible. They'd notice something that big in their throat, and they certainly don't wonder around with their mouths open in the deep seas. Blue whales consume krill which is usually never in deep waters, and they filter water out of their mouth, meaning lack of oxygen wouldn't be your biggest issue.
@@laurikotivuori1585 they wouldnt eat you, but like a blue whales “teeth” or whatever they’re called could crush you
3:55 eerie suspended animation - sleep
lol why are you here sir
yooo
That is absolutely terrifying not knowing if a massive whale is going full speed towards you from the darkness below.
6:00, "And if you look to your left here, Balee, you'll see a real live human. You can say hi, but their lives are miserable enough as it is, so we just leave them be."
Pffft- this is underrated-
4:50 the whale was waving at yous. They appreciate your presence.
No they don't. They likely aren't even aware. And if they are, "appreciation" isn't even close to whatever it is they're doing.
You can always tell the vloggers. They go out to amazing places, see crazy things, and then point the camera at themselves.
The pure joy of the people seeing these things really makes this video for me
I honestly think they do that when they know people are around.
Maybe, that things are f'kin smart
They do it to get the barnacles off their back
Yup, it's their way to "greet" us. I wish I could understand what they're trying to tell us.
Yea
@@StupidWiz no

The most beautiful sight ! They know humans are around so they show out!. Such smart gentle beings . I hope to see this before leaving this earth ❤
Don't think for a second that the whale doesn't realize there is a boat with humans nearby... he is showing off
1:55 is the best reaction ever
03:35 that doesn’t even look real. Amazing 🙂
Comment Highlighted is that a blue whale?
@David Butler no it isn't its a humpback
It's a humpback
I thought the breathing sound belonged to the whale
@@mertylmaz2234 Whales can't breathe underwater, silly.
I love how these gentle giants have fun with these tourists!
All these clips have something special about them. Whether it's the reactions of the people who just witnessed one of the coolest things whales can do for us when out on a watch, or the tranquility of being underwater with them, or even being so close to mom and calf that you can hear them communicating with each other. Every single one brings something absolutely amazing, whether it's laughter, or jaw-dropping, eye-popping-ly unexpected facial expressions, or the deep blueness background to sleeping giants in the forefront, (which was my favorite), or the adorable-ness of mom and baby together.....I'm missing so much but you get the picture, or in this case, video. 🤗😍
1:43 I would literally die with a heart attack there. Lucky guy.
That whale was eating too lmao
Whale knows what they're gonna eat. And whale did saw him from way down also knowing that it's not supposed to be eaten. God these creatures are so Amazing it literally makes me cry with Joy.
MyK3 Gaming yeh but the sharks might just think oh yum
That was wayyy to much nature happening in that clip!
same holy
3:50 is crazzyyyy!! Gave me anxiety and chills! Beautiful creatures.

Yes 😁🙃
I thought it was an abandoned ship

Wow! What phenomenal footage. Thank you!
that ocean is such a beautiful thing yet so terrifying at the same time 😬
4:09 You would have to be incredibly close to the whale to get this shot with such a wide lens. That would be absolutely surreal.
Wonder how much “Horsepower” it takes to stack up to just ONE “Whale power”?!
I can’t answer the question but I did have a butch online. A blue whale can exert 120 kilo Newton’s of power which is roughly double the thrust of an F-15 fighter jet. That’s sick
According to my calculations about 719 horsepower is equal to one bluewhalepower
@@malachymoreland7417 how did u find that out
@@carlosr.5971 Well power is equal to Force multiplied by Velocity, so I used the force of 120,000N provided by @Nothing above and multiplied by its top speed in meters per second. That gives you its power in Watts, so I then converted from Watts to Horsepower
@@carlosr.5971 I should state that I gave a very conservative estimate. Using their top speed, they would have a top power output of around 2235Hp but since that's in very short bursts they couldn't maintain that for long
1:56 I laughed so hard when he turned the camera, that's exactly my expression
Beautiful video! Whales are gorgeous souls.
Perfect example of the saying: “Be careful of the ocean. You have no idea what lies beneath you.”
6:39 has a lot of "dont talk to me or my son ever again" energy
I was on a cruise ship going to The Cayman Islands. It was March of 2009 and I will never forget this one particular night. It was super late like 3 in the morning and I was the only one out on the dock at this moment. Millions of stars filled the sky and reflected on the sea. It was calm and quiet. Suddenly I heard the soft call of a whale in the distance, I rushed to the side of the ship to look in the direction of where the sound came from. I stared for what felt like hours waiting for something to happen. Then I heard it again and saw the massive blue whale slowly appear above the water before disappearing beneath the sea. It was the most magical moment of my life.
i can't even comprehend how big they are!! i hope one day i get to see one, they're amazing creatures. 🐋💜
Their far bigger than any dinosaur and even Godzilla
4:03 they’re vibing so peaceful
Don't like it when people get too close. It hasn't happened yet, but one day someone might get killed and people will misjudge whales because of it. Even though they are literally the most gentle animals out there, their size can be hard to control, especially with people swimming almost right next to them. One blow from the fin and that person is knocked out and drowning. I'm from Norway btw (where there are a lot of whales) and it's already happened a few times that the media has covered stories of close encounters with the use of scary music and titles intended to scare to get views. People need to leave them alone, respect their space and stop being obsessed with getting their footage. These are very intelligent creatures, they might not come back to a certain area if they feel threatened there, that's why it's important to respect their space. If the whale finds you on their own then it's fine, but people really shouldn't stalk them and jump into the water right next to them. Also whales breach all the time, it's not because they want to give humans "a show" (typical human mentality right there, we have a tendency to think everything is for us), they actually breach because they want to signalize to other whales that either food or predators are near. It's also a form of communication, as their eco localizacion provides signals under water, while breaching causes communication near the surface of the water. *Update: I don't want to lecture people on what the can/can't do, but I hope this comment might influence certain perspectives. I'm replying to some comments, there's more information in the replies for those interested.
girlfromthecenteroftheuniverse signaling if prey or predators are near is communication 🤷🏻♂️

@@jorgen3662 It's the internet, bud. They got rights. You're only proving her point by saying "no right to tell the rest of us how we should act around whales."
You shouldn't be near these creatures, unless of course, it's an accidental encounter.
Also, if you're gonna call out their nationality, do it right.
Capital Norwegian. Not norwegian.
For such a huge animal they are incredibly grateful
Where was this filmed? Absolutely mesmerizing and incredibly beautiful….the peaceful stillness under the water. I just love nature
Different locations. I believe Hawaii was among them.
