      I think the whale of this video was infact Krister :D, more specifically this part of the video: czcams.com/video/Ubhfwh7ynlY/video.html, moments earlier Niko gives him the best advice in the world: Fly like a butterfly, land like a whale! And that is exactly what Krister did hehe. Anyways, great video Nikolai 🙌
