A Seal Sits on our Kayak

Taken with our digital camera, we captured a seal jumping onto our kayak unexpectedly. It sounds like my husband is getting attacked in this video, but he is fine. The seal was very gentle and just needed a break from swimming. This was taken on September 12, 2007 on a beautiful Vancouver day.

It's not a seal ohworldgirl you are a moron. And these kayakers should not be hitting sea lions with anything if it wanted to it would rip your face off. Give the animal

I'd be nervous to have my camera near the water, but I'd regret not having it with me if something like this happened!

There's another video on youtube of a sea lion doing the same. Again, it makes me wonder if it was hiding from something he saw underwater. Any Orcas in that area?

Hahaha - "my husband sounds like he's getting attacked" true. I wonder did they knock the seal off the boat - or did the seal dive off.

That's me in the front and my husband in the back. We rented our kayak on Granville Island and shot this clip in English Bay, Vancouver, Canada.

Thanks for your kind comment. It was an experience we will never forget. The friends we went kayaking with didn't believe us until I told them to check out this Youtube clip.

The seal was very comfortable with us. It even swam next to our kayak for a good ten minutes afterwards.
