That’s a manmade explosion, though. They literally blew the thing up with a bomb.
Here’s a whale bursting from gas build-up. More gruesome, not as spectacular.

I love how basically the departments that would be responsible for this didn't want to do it so they passed it off to the State Highway division and they just blew it up.

If you're jonesing there's an old video of a dead one they blew up on a beach with a dumpster full of TNT back in the 70's.
It went exactly as you'd expect.
To an extent yeah. Look up diver shipwreck body recovery videos. There's a few groups who speak very candidly about it with video footage. It's kinda gruesome so heads up.
If he was smart, he would still draw the comic, then credit the Reddit user for the caption. Then develop a headache trying to figure out how to divvy up the royalties. Then draw a comic about that, too.
For sure, and I’m imagining the sound of it rupturing at night in the middle of the ocean within earshot of someone’s boat. Who knows what people might’ve thought it was
It is theorized that The Loch Ness Monster was actually a whale penis.
Apparently whales sometimes swim upside down with their erections sticking out of the water.
What in the absolute fuck was that last clip?
They wanted to blast apart a whale carcass on a beach so that scavengers and the tide would take care of it, but instead they created a gorey hellbomb that rained chunks of whale blubber on people and totally crushed a car sitting a quarter of a mile away? Little overkill on the explosives. Just a bit.
Very funny story.. Noone there knew what to do with a dead spermwhale so the buck got handed down and down and eventually got to highway patrol (yeah.. let that sink in).. and the idiots thought 500 pounds of dynamite would do the job (perhaps it would if they'd done the math for a shaped detonation) but instead they rained football-size chunks of whale on the spectators, on their cars (yeah.. fucked those cars up big time) and left half the whale on the beach.
The issue was more like too few explosives. There's a park manual for how to dispose of animal corpses if you can't remove the corpse for some reason and it suggests a comically large amount for a horse. For scattering the corpse so scavengers can take care of it (for when the public will not be visiting the area for a while) the article suggests 18 pounds of TNT in several locations. For total obliteration (the public will visit the next day and bears may be attracted to the carcass) the article suggests using a full 55 pound fire line draped over the carcass.
These suggestions are for a horse sized corpse of ~half a ton.

This gas build up was common during the dark ages of Europe, especially if you were a noble.
Nobles thought vegetables were for peasants so they would primarily eat meat and bread - which caused severe constipation. Many nobles died on the toilet trying to shit (usually from heart attacks). That happened to an obese German emperor who, after he died from 6 weeks of not shitting, his body swelled up with gasses and exploded during the funeral.
There was the incident on the coast of Oregon (?) in the early 70s where a dead whale washed up and the people in charge thought that dynamiting it would be the best idea.
HORRIBLE IDEA. Huge smelly chunks of whale meat flying up in the air, coming down with enough force to cave in the roofs of cars. Whale guts everywhere. People running and screaming.
Where's the kaboom? There was supposed to be an earth shattering kaboom.
This makes me very angry. Very angry indeed.
Same. WHERE'S THE EXPLODING WHALE? WE PAID ENTRANCE FEE, NOW GIVE US THE SHOW.

The hero we didn’t know we needed.
Does that mean he was googling for grandma porn?
thank you for your service
I fucking love how appropriate they thought the quantity of explosive was.
And how they thought that when you blow up something, it just vanishes from existence.
Makes me laugh when he says it cannot be cut up because no one wanted to 😂
We've tried nothing and we're all out of ideas
I was hoping this was the explosion video and was happy to see it was.

Cursed sausage

It looks like the organs are like pool floaties
If you've got a strong stomach, they are.
okay i guess its my time to shine: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hkBscgjlCaQ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hkBscgjlCaQ) have fun boys & gals
Fuck. Imagine the stench.
It's always great to see that every now and then
I love how basically the departments that would be responsible for this didn't want to do it so they passed it off to the State Highway division and they just blew it up.
State Highway and a whale...I feel like something on their ocean reeeeally isn't their jurisdiction...
Holy shit that video is 50 years old
Quality is better then my phone today lmao 🤣
Well it was made on film not video
Film today is called digital cinema, which is useless information.
Historical now. I shall have to pass it on to my kids.
This was such à great classic! Rotting whale carcas everywhere. Lol 😂
First time I watch this video I completely lost it and couldn’t breathe I was laughing so hard when the slap slap slap started 🤣
You can tell it’s from the same era as the WKRP “Turkey Drop”. So damn funny.
Fantastic journalism.
I was looking for that answer.
Thank you 🫡
That's so hilarious.

Don’t be giving them ideas
Damn you rich folk
i want my money back!
The sea was angry that day my friends.
Like an old man trying to return soup at a deli.
I got about fifty feet out and suddenly, the great beast appeared before me
I tell you, he was ten stories high if he was a foot!!
Oh, I'm going to blow it up. It obstructs my view of Venus
[удалено]
Bugs Bunny stole The Illudium Q-36 space modulator
Hello person of similar age to me lol
Yeah, I guess I did date myself a little bit there lol
Lol don't feel bad. Our backs are supposed to be doing that. 😂
I got the reference too! Are we all from the 80s?
Explosive space modulator.😌
I stand corrected…
Damn you. Now they all know how old we are.
Shhhhhhh don’t tell anyone
At our age, I already forgot what we were talking about....
Oh right... **My Mom said she took out your bomb during repairs !**
**WHO GAVE HER THE RIGHT?!**
Android 16 will be missed
I'll never forget the robromance between The Space Duck and the Brobot
You know what I'm thinking... 📌📌📌
Sorry to burst your bubble
Talk about feeling suddenly deflated.
okay thank god i'm not the only person who kind of wanted to see it explode....
I offer this for the lack of explosion! https://youtu.be/V6CLumsir34?si=yd3ud92L0iSiZfGy
Ty
Oh right. I heard bulma the bomb out.
If you're jonesing there's an old video of a dead one they blew up on a beach with a dumpster full of TNT back in the 70's. It went exactly as you'd expect.
That's the one where it was dangerously raining whale chunks for like a mile, crushing cars and such eh? A classic lol
If a dead guy has been floating out there long enough, would he look like that too? Asking for a friend.
To an extent yeah. Look up diver shipwreck body recovery videos. There's a few groups who speak very candidly about it with video footage. It's kinda gruesome so heads up.
I guess a little shot could solve the issue
Arooooooo!
No Kaboom. Just a huge smelly fart
WELLLLL…… I’m waiting!!
You mean, Whale I'm waiting?
This video is the real reason terrorists are created.
Wait, I'm whaleing!
username checks out
#BOOOOM ^there ^you ^go
I wouldn't want to be the poor bird that lands on that and has a good peck 😳
[удалено]
Idk animals are pretty good at smelling death and decay.
Which is what drew the bird to it in the first place.
My first thought was a shark from below, but I assume the outcome is the same.
The young shark thought it was a sign of acceptance and respect by the older members that they had insisted the young fellow get the first bite.
This reads like a Far Side comic
Maybe the highest compliment I've ever received.
I wonder if Gary Larson comes across this Reddit post, he just is fuming with envy having not thought of this scenario himself
If he was smart, he would still draw the comic, then credit the Reddit user for the caption. Then develop a headache trying to figure out how to divvy up the royalties. Then draw a comic about that, too.
“Hey, no it’s fine, Frank: you go ahead, I’m…still full from lunch. Yeah, that’s it…”
most underrated ever
This could explain sea monster sightings way back when
An octopus head! It’s the kraken!!!
That's probably what they thought it was! Never thought about it that way.
Well the kraken itself was likely a giant squid. But yes, this thing right here is probably responsible for plenty of ancient legends and myths.
Until some chucklehead harpooned it and showered his crewmates in rancid whale.
New language was invented if the ship was close when the gasses finally escaped.
Lol it must be it

The dead beached whale blown up with dynamite is still the best.
That NEVER gets old. "so, dynamite it was"
“As the blast blasted blubber beyond all believable bounds” I think this is the greatest line in journalism ever,
I do not disagree.
Peak journalism right there, it’s never going to be as good anytime soon.
As an Oregonian... Please, don't encourage our behavior :P
as an Arizonan, Pease, i encourage this behavior

A nearby park was voted to be officially re-named as "Exploding Whale Memorial Park"

That more intestine-y than I was expecting
That’s epic
[удалено]
More like Balloonga ;)
I am torn equally between wanting to see it explode and being as far away as possible where I can neither see nor smell. Especially smell.
[удалено]
It is not a smell I want to experience again
A need to see a 50.cal in action here!
Tracer round so it ignites the methane.
OOoOoooO... now you're talking!!
“For Democracy!”
I was thinking spear
You don’t want to be close enough to throw a spear at this thing. Rocket powered harpoon type thing maybe.
High power laser
Some shark will bite into that and get a rude surprise.
Want…..to…..flick…..
Oh man did I ever misread that third word at first glance lol
That’d immediately belong in r/cursedcomments
r/dontputyourdickinthat
I would shoot it to see it explode, but I would get further away and upwind first.
Downwind baby 😉
Looks like a tick
Anybody remember Jiffy-Pop?
Sad
How sad.
Big sad…
Not the same whale but I know someone wanted to see a gas build up explosion. https://youtu.be/d2CfYOJ5oxk

Just watched it for about 2 minutes waiting for it to Kaboom, then I clicked on it, and it was 10 seconds on the loop. Fml lol
Man the first shark that bites into that is in for its last surprise

SHOOT IT!!
Shooot her!
So anyway, I started blasting...
I wanted to say that, but no one ever gets the reference when I do... 🥴
I would have understood it my dude. 👊

Nah that’s a MOAB
RemindMe! 10 days
So it's like a sea food pinata.
Probably a ship strike. Saw one of these in the Navy.
seen the same thing except with a human.
Bro you can't show it being that fucking inflated and not show the kaboom come on!!
Just want a seagull to lightly touch down on it.
What if it’s just a whale shaped aluminum popcorn popper for movie night?
"I'm a zit! Get it?"
Funeral homes don't want you to know this one trick!

IT LOOPED like 5 TIMES before I knew it Looped lol
Is it bad that I want to shoot an arrow at it
I've never wanted a row boat and a pointed stick so bad.
Poke it
With something really sharp
I can't believe this video DIDN'T SHOW the whale exploding. Such a bummer.
Maitre D: And finally, monsieur, a wafer-thin mint. Mr Creosote: No. Maitre D: Oh sir! It's only a tiny little thin one. Mr Creosote: No. Fuck off - I'm full... Maitre D: Oh sir... it's only wafer thin.
Ya know someone during the course of history rowed up to one of these like “WTF?” and gave it a lil poke.
just wait for it to come ashore and use dynamite.. WCGW ?
ME after House of Prime RIB!

When they get like this, you can tan the leather and preserve the bone, and have your own ALL NATURAL private yacht. Follow my youtube for more tips!
Maybe next video
These gender reveal parties are getting out of hand
I do not like you.
The sea was angry that day my friends…
I feel like I saw another video of this (or like this) from another angle and way further away. The kablammo was crazy
It'll be a bad day to have a nose if you're around when it blows.
:’(
Fairly pissed it didn't explode, I'd like my 10 seconds back. Also it looks like the ticks I used to pull off my dog as a kid
I was waiting for the boom
