An Argentinian man with his female partner recorded a unique but at the same time terrifying experience when the two found themselves kayaking next to a large whale.
In the video that recorded the “encounter”, Paolo Osta can be seen gently paddling after realising that a whale is next to him.
The whale calmly moves within arm’s reach of the Argentine, who can almost touch it, which he did not attempt.
The terror in his eyes can be seen clearly as the girl recording the close encounter laughs with the video having gathered over 38 million views on TikTok.
