Humpback Whales Nearly Swallow Surfer

I decided a couple of days ago not to post this video because it had made the rounds in so many places already. I just watched it again and decided I have to share it because it's just that good. If you haven't already seen the woman on a surfboard who is literally almost swallowed by two humpback whales, you have to watch this amazing video. What an unreal experience for the surfer and the nearby kayakers off the coast of Santa Cruz, CA.

  2. This was in Santa Cruz. A few miles north off the coast of San Francisco there was also a great white sighting during a professional surfing contest. You never know what lurks in the deep.

    I'm a Florida boy who grew up with no fear of the open water, but I'm hear to tell you - the Pacific Ocean ain't the Gulf of Mexico.
