Watch: Humpback whale swallows kayaker in Chile, spits him out moments later
A 24-year-old kayaker in southern Chile was briefly swallowed by a humpback whale but emerged unhurt. A video capturing the event near the San Isidro Lighthouse shows the whale lunge-feeding and accidentally engulfing the kayaker. Experts explain that such behaviors are unintentional and whales cannot swallow humans due to their narrow throats.
