Crazy Video Captures An Angry Whale Capsizing A Boat In New Hampshire Waters

According to Ryan Whitney, there is a pissed-off whale taking out boats in Portsmouth Harbor New Hampshire. 

I do not know whether the whale did this on purpose but from the looks of it the whale was filter-feeding fish and the boat got in the way. Would be great to ask the whale for his side of the story, but I don't think he's able for comment. 

There have been examples recently of whales attacking ships off the coast of Spain. 

I'm going to give the whale the benefit of the doubt. This looks like an accidental whale breach on top of a boat. The whale just wants to eat and the boat is over the bait ball of fish it is hungry for. Going to be a hard insurance claim for that sunk boat. Thank god there is this video so they can see how crazy of an accident it is. 

A whale once similarly swallowed two kayakers that were over a bait ball and spat them out. 

That's not even the first time a whale got up to some business in the North East. This lobsterman also got swallowed by a whale 3 years ago. 

It is just so bound to happen its nuts. Like look at how big some of these whales are compared to boats.

The thing is real whales are only a threat to humans by accident because they're so large. Orca whales aren't technically whales they are porpoise/dolphin types. Big whales aren't dangerous on purpose, just big.
