Aussie News : Southern right whale leaps from the water to land on yacht off South Africa

As you know, whales have poor eyesight. Be it good or bad. This causes a couple got a close-up view on whales from a sailboat when a southern right whale soared out of the water off Cape Town and landed on their boat, snapping the mast. Their boat's engine was off as they didn't want to let the whales know that they were there. It really happened as the whale did not realise that there was a boat and so ended up crashing on it. Instinctively, they took covers as the mast came crashing down. Without wasting a minute, the couple headed for shore promptly after realising they remained unhurt.

Critique:  The couple's intention was to watch whales. However, much to their dismay, they ended up having a very close-up view on whale which might take their lives away as well. How funny is it right? Anyway, as long as they were safe, I still think that it was rather worth seeing whale like this. Not everyone has this golden chance ! LOL
