Speeding Boat Runs Over Whale in Puget Sound, See Video

Google+ Pinterest LinkedIn Tumblr +

This is awful. A small boat speeding on Puget Sound runs right over a whale swimming just below the surface. The boat hits the whale hard enough to lift the boat out of the water. The entire episode was captured on video taken from a whale-watching boat.

The whale, probably a grey whale, was one of three swimming together. Grey whales are about 40 feet long and can weigh up to 30 tons. The condition of the whale is not known. See the video here:
