The Video quality is not the best on this one, but still kind of interesting.

Marc2006says...The fact that anyone is stupid enough to blow up a 700 lbs+ whale and not expect the remains to cause some damage shows how stupid people in this town are.
Quite a ridiculous video, actually.

Hwhat?
snoozedoctorsays...This kind of thing is better left to expert Cetacea crews with considerable experience in Whale demolition. The problem here could have been obstruction of the "blow hole" which focused the blast, resulting in ballistic blubber and putrid projectiles.
Mi1lersays...reminds me of that dead whale in Taiwan few years back that was being transported through the city and burst spilling its guts all over a city street.
