0:35 it blew a bubble. A SINGLE BUBBLE

Bluenose352 - 7 years ago

Great footage! Blue Whales still seem to keep their distance, unlike other whales. You are so lucky to get somewhat of a closeup!!

BadAim - 7 years ago

I'd be terrified the whale would breach on top of me.

GerSHAK - 6 years ago

Don't worry. Blue whales don't breach. :)

gator bait - 7 years ago

I think your a little too close Rick. Great footage and must have been awesome but if she had a little one she might have become protective and made mush out of you with a fin or tail slap. But she seems totaly comfortable eating and everything else with you right there

Doing it with a shark ;)

Sandra H. - 8 years ago

It's absolutely amazing! I would have been totally freaked out by knowing this huge animal is swimming right underneath me...like wow.....they are so huge and so massive and totally beautiful.
And the whale is probably like "Oh look how small it is, this cute little thingy from above" ^o^

CrazyWharf625 - 8 years ago

LotusEater - 8 years ago

U lucky @#$% ... lol sorry i m too excited and jealous that you got such an AWESOME chance to go so fcking close to the majestic blue..

OrionoftheStar - 8 years ago

This is majestic.
I mean, there are plenty of nature documentaries that give you perfect, stable images of whales in really clear water, but the first-person imagery there, right alongside the whale... the sheer immensity of the blue whale is overwhelming.
"Majestic" is often used as a joke, but this is the sort of thing the word was made for.

ΣΤΕΦΑΝΟΣ ΚΩΝΣΤΑΝΤΙΝΟΥ - 8 years ago

Definitely. Gives off a very large thalassophobia vibe. Thalassophobia is the fear of open water, just so you know.

Blue whales are the largest animal to EVER have existed. Bigger than any dinosaur and even megalodon.

Manaviecreations - 8 years ago

Oh man Rick! That rocked my socks off! Epic!

easdcoastlover - 9 years ago

Blue whales don't attack humans id be more scared of a white shark blue whales are just beautiful

Levi Hackerman - 9 years ago

So they don't attack people ?

Wild Outdoor Living - 8 years ago

+OrionoftheStar They aren't aggressive but due to their massive size there is still a great deal of risk for people to be this close. Totally worth it for this footage though.

CrazyWharf625 - 8 years ago

+OrionoftheStar nooooooo they're harmless. They don't have teeth. Instead they have bristles to filter feed. sharks are dangerous though

OrionoftheStar - 8 years ago

+Levi Ackerman What? No, of course not. How would they? They're filter feeders, they don't even have teeth. A number of bayleen whales, including blue whales, can actually be friendly.

SHALKKE.TV - 9 years ago

Dude, you are the real balls of steel!

Frank Charron - 9 years ago

Although I'm all for experiencing nature and wildlife while kayaking, let's be honest here...you were WAY too close to the whales and should have backed off. Sure it makes for a "cool" video but it was a bad call on your part. Don't be so selfish Rick and give the beautiful animals a little personal space.

Daz Ediss - 9 years ago

He wasn't doing any harm you absolute pleb. Just creating some of the best Blue Whale footage that the world has ever seen.

To be honest, this animal weighs upward of 150 tonnes.

If it had so much as given one tail flap, this dude would be history.

The animal was never in any remote danger and judging from my previous experience with whales, they are genuinely intelligent & curious animals. It probably enjoyed the attention.

Meanwhile there are fishermen worldwide who are illegally killing these creatures for profit. Perhaps copy and paste your bullshit verbal attack on some greenpeace videos.

Anton Posa - 9 years ago

Dude you got so close, that's insane. What an experience that must have been. I'm very jealous.

Jonathan Manning - 9 years ago

Are you sure its a blue whale, its really small for one but it might be a baby

vandechu - 9 years ago

I would have died. Heart attack for sure! You got ballzzz dude

Sazabi MSN-04 - 9 years ago

If that whale had made any sudden movements with its tail you would of been a dead man. Amazing footage though, you got balls.

Derek Borba - 9 years ago

I would have shit myself the moment that whale broke water next to me.

Can't you be fined for getting that close? Anyway, corporate america should dump a lot of Oil and Chemicals in that part of the Ocean - give my comment a thumbs up if you think pollution and Whale-a-side is the humanitarian thing to do.

mandark24 - 11 years ago

Thank you for posting the guidelines too! I once followed the guidelines that told me not to go closer than 400meters to a bunch of beluga whales. But they did not read the rule and came to check me out :-) Looking into the eyes of a whale is an incredible thing. The guidelines should also mention to go to the restroom before doing this, otherwise your pants might be ruined :-)

Scott TheOzoneGuy - 11 years ago

Once in a lifetime experience. No wonder you have a million and a half views. Fantastic. Link forwarded.

The loud water splashing sounds makes this video seem very amateurish, but that is a good thing for it shows others can do it too. I am not sure what other commentators are so scared about. As I understand, baleen whales are among the most gentle animals on the Earth and unless you are krill offer little danger.

Does everyone fully comprehend that a Blue Whale is the largest animal (known to science) thats ever lived, even bigger than any Dinosaur. There is a risk involved kayaking and swimming with them, but I would give anything to do so. One of God's greatest creations.

I live in Redondo Beach and blue whales do go there from time to time. I was out wind surfing I felt a huge vibration and looked behind me and saw two blues whales. One came out of the water... scared the living shit out of me. But saw he was just passing by... I wish I caught that on camera cause it was the most amazing thing ever. In real life being next to one of these things makes you feel so tiny... its amazing!

OddFoxxeP - 12 years ago

i would get nervous just from the sheer waves and churning water that massive animal would be doing O_O and by nervous i mean scared shitless of a fluke or some other majestic body part colliding with me. I would've gotten as much distance between me and it as possible lol XD, kudos to you for having the nerves to stay and enjoy this beautiful sight. Not say that it would've attacked me btw, but those animals are BIG and getting knocked off of a kayak is not a favorite activity of mine.

Lyssnerskan - 12 years ago

I have to agree with @pocochoir on this. It is stressful and potentially hurtful to chase the whale like this. You shouldn't approach the whale, but instead let it come to you in its on pace. I don't deny this being an amazing video, but if we made everything thrilling legal the world wouldn't be a good place. Show the nature some respect.

pocochoir - 12 years ago

This video is a blatant example of chasing whales - which is illegal throughout North America. NO one is allowed to move their vessel CLOSER to a whale. If one breaches nearby, that's up to the whale. This guy is clearly paddling TOWARD the whales and not watching in a benign manner. Shame on you for showing it. By showing it you are making it OKAY for others to do the same.

Vincent tétreault - 12 years ago

stephy1771 - 12 years ago

While this is surely an awesome experience, it is highly dangerous to be that close. Those whales are massive and powerful and could easily (and accidentally) kill someone with a stroke of their tail. Marine mammal regulations protect people as much as they protect whales. At least they are in kayaks, not boats with motors that could injure the whales.

stephy1771 - 12 years ago

@D2ooSAX Blue whales eat krill, not fish. People are responsible for declining fish populations because we've been overfishing (taking too many fish) for decades. The whales that DO eat fish do not eat nearly enough to impact fish populations in the way that humans do. Many marine mammal species are now threatened because their food sources (small fish) have declined due to human overfishing.

For everyone who doesn't want to look up Stillnakedbullwinkles comment, I said shut up because he said: You left your fellow kayaker. You never leave your partner. You know that right? HOw do you know if they were in touble? You do not because you forgot about her? As a kayaker in alaska, I know about leaving your partner or being out of communication with them. You got an epic video for sure. But, you broke the cardinal rule of safety in kayaking with a partner... Not important, watch the vid!

XXdevilsemoXX - 12 years ago

I have been kayaking for over 20 years with Gray, Humpback, Killer (Orcas) and a few times with Blue whales. I have led guided kayak tours to watch whales. This Guy is getting way too close. Its dangerous, disrespectful, and will encourage other people to do similar things. It's also definitely illegal and subject to large fines.

From the MMPA: "Level B Harassment means any act of pursuit, torment, or annoyance which has the potential to disturb a marine mammal or marine mammal stock in the wild by causing disruption of behavioral patterns, including, but not limited to, migration, breathing, nursing, breeding, feeding, or sheltering but which does not have the potential to injure a marine mammal or marine mammal stock in the wild." Cool video, that whale was feeding, thus your pursuit could be considered harassment.

ChappyBT - 12 years ago

@cacamonster91st True, but surprisingly an occurrence that is extremely rare! The whales have a very good sense of what is around them, and an even better sense of what their flukes may hit. I've seen divers within feet of large whales, and the whales invariably can stop short of hitting any of them. You can even see that they shorten their stroke so as not to hit them...really amazing creatures!

ChappyBT - 12 years ago

@BeachKeever The whale was feeding, it's easy to see if you know what you're looking at. In one shot it clearly shows the whale's throat grooves were heavily expanded, and water was visible being forced thru the baleen.
