The incident, captured on camera recently, quickly went viral. So, 20-year-old Adrian Simancas was kayaking with his father Del in Baia el Aguila near the San Ysidro lighthouse in the Strait of Magellan, the Associated Press reports. After some time, a humpback whale surfaced, which swallowed Adrian and his yellow kayak for a few seconds, and then spat it out.
Dell, who was only a few meters away from him, captured the moment on video, while urging his son to remain calm.
Adrian later described the "horror" of those few seconds to the Associated Press. He explained that his real fear arose only after he surfaced, fearing that the huge animal would harm his father or that he would die in the icy water. zakon.kz .
