Beached Whale + Dynamite = Dear God
June 8th, 2007 by HeywoodThere really are no words to describe this newscast, which is clearly from another era…
One memorable quote:
“The humor of the entire situation suddenly gave way to a run for survival as huge chunks of whale blubber fell everywhere.” –News Anchor
[postscript/update (by Timbotron)]:
“Son of Exploding Whale“ - Three years ago. Tainan, Taiwan. 60-ton dead spermwhale in transit to Cheng Kung National University for necropsy. Gasses from decay built up. The whale exploded. The 100+ bystanders (who had gathered to comment on its enormous penis) were flecked with decaying viscera.
