- A rare encounter was caught on video at Puerto Madryn, Argentina when a southern rIght whale seemingly plays with a woman on a paddleboard and pushes the board gently forward, observing its movement as it swims directly beneath it. "They are rare moments, it is something that is prohibited," said Oscar Comes, a local water-sports tourism operator. "It isn't like you can go in a kayak, standup board, a boat, or whatever, to look for the animal."

He’s the whale’s leading scientist who’s collecting data on a new weird species he just discovered.
Exactly
John brown 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣!!!
Wonderful imagination.....
he will be very disappointed on his findings...
Whales are the Canadians of the ocean, coming over to say "hello" and being polite.
Not always. This was probably more like “I’m not gonna eat it… Where’s Mikey?” 🤣
As a Canadian, I wouldn’t be able to resist flipping that dude….in a friendly manner of course.
@@andyburch1819 what part of Canada are you from, the cold part or the rainy part?
@@the6ig6adwolf isn't it all cold and rainy
What a beautiful image... Amazing that they had the drone there, and what a calm looking sea..
Ha, gentle giant gave the paddleboarder a nudge as if it was stuck and needed assistance. It actually waved at her too. That's MAGICAL!!!
More magical than the greed of Disney World.
What a beautiful gentle creature...
That whale knows exactly what it's doing. Such fun creatures.
The whale: * nudge * "Ha, now that's cute. Welp, time to do whale stuff."
It's amazing how gentle it is, it has to take a lot of effort to be so gentle when it's that big. It's easy to see that the whale was very conscientious of how easily it could hurt or damage the woman on the paddleboard. What was going through its head? Whatever it was must have been kinder than what goes through the heads of many humans.
amazing it was so sweet, I couldnt agree more to be that gentle was a task and it achieved it stunningly well
Woahhh looks like someone was having a lucky day!
Our unlucky day if they decide to charge or fine that someone.
And it happened to be the woman birthday!
And that's why whales🐳 needs to be protected🛡️.
@WhateverJames honey......... And that's the reason...
I'm vegetarian. I love animals🐵🐔🐶🐷 more than most people... Coz their love is unconditional and pure.......
This took my breath away!!! What an absolutely amazing experience...and Frightening. To me it's a life changing experience..it shows we can live together...a gentle Giant and us xx How wonderful to watch..Thank you xx
As gentle as the whale is, if that was me on the paddleboard, that water would have been a lot more brown.
🤢
Lol
That's the whale equivalent of booping the snoot.
Amazing Photography, The Whale was so gentle with her!
That was amazing. It's incredibly beautiful how smart these mammals are. This was one interaction that no one else knows.
Extraordinary! Argentina and Uruguay in the wintertime are like this. You just have to sit and be mesmerized by whales 🐋
Can you drink beer in Argentina and Uruguay?
@@the6ig6adwolf yeah of course, the main brand of beer in argentina is Fernet (i think)
@@benitoperez8884 that's not a beer...but yes there are many brands and even more "artesanal" production.
The sounds and view was awesome 🙋🏽♀️
A respectful, friendly, curious whale.
:-)
Красота какая, восхищена
The thrill of a lifetime.
Both scary and magical at the same time. What an incredible experience!
What an amazing experience,it was so gentle
So amazing.
Oh what a blessing that experience was. Thank you for sharing.
Beautiful Gentile Giant!
Had no idea whales even had religion.
Gentile? Simpleton.
Magnificent Giant.
Awwwww! A magical moment! You lucky (sitting) duck! :D
We can learn from the gentleness exhibited from such a magnificent animal.
Whale : nudges
Woman : teleports
The whales like Friend new friend
Aww, they were just saying hello! How amazing! What an encounter!
He is just a giant sea doggo wanting belly rubs.
Wale be like "c'monn do something"
The whale could've played volleyball with her, one whip of the tail & she's a goner
Such a fascinating thing it knows how to be gentle & control the nudge...and then follow up with a wave as well! Amazing
The Whale's a New Yorker " Hey I'm whaling over here!!!!!!"
Extinction Rebellion: Mother natural fights back against ocean plastic
Unfortunate are the ones who ignore this video...
😍😍😍😍😍
A gentle giant...🇿🇦
Whale: Sweet! My new hot wheels boat came in!
Turns on back: "Belly rubs?"
That whale reminds me of my cat when she rolls over on the floor and gives me a nudge with her paw.
Wants to play fer sure!
Priceless.
Breathtaking! What an amazing experience for that woman! Gentle giants, no doubt
"you touch it, you buy it!"
A wonderful experience 😲😄
Just being playful and curious.
Amazing!
Absolutely precious!!!!
Shows intelligence that the whale is giving him cheek. The whale was gentle dispite its size.
wow that would be bit scary right? most of us don't get a up close and personal experience like this so . . .
I was tense enough with a curios seal in my kayak, but I in awe of the interaction. Fear and excitement usually go hand in hand.
It’s like a kid playing with a toy car.
I bet the guy on the paddle board was bricking it big time, lol.
Imagine something like this happening and all your focus is on your smartphone...
That woman on the paddleboard in all likelihood was squatting and trying to take a selfie somehow.
I think she was piloting the drone, it comes with a screen to see what the camera is showing on the remote.
Ok boomer
@@PinkSparklerToontown Haha, I wish
You’ve been blessed
That's amazing!
I’ve seen this video a few times already & it just dawned on me that this sweet whale was trying to get the boarder to swim with it. Like the second whale does right after. It wants to bond. Awwww😭🥰💖
Dang she just left him hanging for a high five. I would have jumped in and pet him and then been a Whale advocate for life.
Beautiful, highly intelligent, gentle giant.
This is precious. 💕
Be Vegan!
I like chicky nuggies
If we weren't meant to eat animals then why are they made outta meat?
That highly intelligent, gentle giant is not vegan!
I would agree with you 100%, until i saw the vegan part of the comment.
@@cosmo9208 Exactly. Vegans are dense. Lack of meat does that.
I always wonder what these extraordinary animals are thinking. How they see us, humans and their surroundings. They are incredible
I wonder who the heck films some boring paddle boarder?
@@voidremoved drones
This is amazing.. I love these big guys.
Whale: "Strange...no fins. Must be human."
such a special moment
Till you see a shadow coming up from the dark twice the size of the whale
Experience of a lifetime ❤️
The whale probably went back and told the rest gee I had a whale of a time playing push a paddle board. It even came with a movable figurine though it didn’t move much!
"Mike, you think is it edible?
"I dunno"
Amazing!!! 🐳💙
That would be intense!
Stunning! What a beauty.
The whale found a bath toy. Gentle and beautiful. A little scary if your the guy in the boat.
For a second i though it was going to slap that fin into the water and that only means breaching. Instead it waved like a true champ xD
Amazing
Absolute insane incident!
Wow just wow
The whale was telling the lady to move it. You're in the way.
True
Wow what I saw was a whale swimming up to a paddle boarder simply giving him a high five and saying hello. 🤯🤯
Imponente! Marvelous!
She's like excuse me while I roll over lol
Que belleza!!!
I love all whales but if I were this paddle border and that gigantic mammal swam close, nudge me and then swam underneath me while I were on a paddle board against the deep-giant green abyss? I just might be a little freaked out. 🤣👍🏽
Someone's sphincter got tighter than it had ever been in their life !
That’s a funny looking puppy
Imagine in early 19s you just curious about big floating thing and suddenly some giant arrow thrown to your body
Wow! How cool was that!
kid whale: mom , i found a new toy
Mom whale:stay away, if they are from japan, you gonna be in a sushi box
Don't be racist! Bringing race into everything makes you look kinda dumb
@@baller9real
how is that racist? it's literally fact that japan still hunts whales despite it being a terrible practice that threatens the survival of these animals. saying that everything is racist makes you look kinda dumb.
Whale: you lied, this toys out of batteries
This is literally my dream❤❤
I think they know what we're thinking to some degree short-term long-term and as a community group and their own family groups... ❤️
Beautiful ❤️
Amazing. 😊👍
WOW!
VERY INTERESTING! ..... AND INCREDIBLE!...?
Wow😲🤩 really amazing
Incredible
Wow ❤
"Weeeeee" - whale
This whale is saying: oooh look a toy to play with lol
Whale: I thought these tiny creatures do that hand slapping thing. O.o
Let me look underneath to make sure its one of those things with no fins and funny tails in two.
Yup, it's definitely one.
Strange.
Human: OMG! OMG! OMG! Please, please, please don't capsize me.
Beautiful
Wants to play! Turns belly up in move of trust...overwhelming. And to think we hunted & killed these beautiful intelligent creatures for centuries. And some countries still do! I often wonder if we deserve this planet. Great video.
We. Not all of us. Just whalers.
Not sure if whales and dogs share the same body language...
Yeah Asian countries are evil
@@rabbigoldbergsilverstein2899 Not really. But okay.
@@jameswatsonatheistgamer they are the ones who do most of the current whale hunting.
What an amazing gentle giant...after all she's on his property...
Yes, the ocean is the whale's home sooo..
@@ashkenminaim3156 😆
Aqua doggo vs ball
(Almost)
More like aqua cow or elephant but yea
NOW THAT IS SOMETHING TRULY WOW!!!! just have to satnav you in nautical ways oceans are too idle and drifting thinks the whale! ❤️😄😄😄
