This video is going viral again because of a new Facebook post. Its caption reads, 'A humpback whale swallows two girls in California.'
that the two women, Julie McSorley and Liz Cottriel, “managed to escape unscathed, briefly going underwater after capsizing before reemerging”:
“I saw the big pool of fish, the big bait ball come up out of the water,” McSorley told CNN affiliate KMPH. “I saw the whale come up. I thought, ‘Oh, no! It’s too close.'”Footage from a witness nearby makes it appear as if the kayakers are being swallowed by the whale, but the two just tipped over.In sum, no, the popular video on Facebook did not show a humpback whale swallowing two women in California. The video was real, but the caption was stretching the truth.
