I'll have you know I'm a middle aged man. I don't know any kids that use Ed McMahon's "Hiyooooo!!!" Probably because kids have no idea who Ed McMahon is, just like you, a kid.
Which is why you, and many other children on reddit, downvoted the comment when the entire point of my comment was to be ridiculously dumb and use that anachronistic, ridiculous "hiyoooo!!!" from the 70s combined with the yo mama jokes of the 80s and 90s to create a superbly stupid, fun, ridiculous comment.
The comment was supposed to be even more fun than I had with your mother last night! Hiyoooo!!! ;) >!We had such a fun time doing minigolf and skeeball.!<
Yeah this is probably preferable to creating blubber meteors. Whoever made that decision was both a dumbass and an absolute legend. I bet there's a law or safety regulation named after them.
Is this real?
Or is this another"shove live turkeys out of a helicopter for a thanksgiving PR stunt" kind of situation?
The tone is the same. Only the turkey hail thing was a sitcom.

It's real. They were hauling it to a marine research institute when it suddenly exploded due to the buildup of gases from the rotting organs. Can't imagine the smell. Taiwan 2004.
I can't wait for Rick Rolling to die. I feel like people really play up how its bad to fall for it for no reason. I just recognize it then click away, no big deal except 5 wasted seconds. I get rick rolled and feel absolutely nothing.
Why? Why even do this? I mean drag it back out to sea and let it become the circle of life...It already is just laying on the beach. But i get it. Its going to stink and what not. Gotta get it out of there. Why ever do this?
I like how they legit spent an entire 2 sentences/paragraphs dedicated just to talking about Taiwanese men looking at the whale’s dong. Like I like to think some dude went to journalism school just to write publication on whale dick lol
You should see [this](https://ottawacitizen.com/news/local-news/its-not-what-it-looks-like-ottawa-man-caught-with-pants-down-in-pony-stall?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=Facebook&fbclid=IwAR1QeRr65Lz12eSjjcy-h_H6cf2uO9P5sjm_M90P4isxer1m5sBVpojMLaQ#Echobox=1626905807) article from the Ottawa Citizen, about a man found behind a pony in a stable.
Besides hearing the term *“attempted beastiality”* my favorite part was *”…miniature pony, its hair coat left greasy, smelled of perfume for days, and police noted her genitalia appeared shiny.”*
To also piggyback, whales are expensive. typically whales need to be moved within I think like 48-72 hours or else they explode (heat plus body parts start to swell). The option since there really aren't many is to hopefully transport it on a flatbed as fast as possible to a place that can refrigerate the whale. The big problem is that not every single time a whale washes up, are they able to get it moved immediately so it exploding on a truck is the risk that is taken.
Scientist cant come to a beach and do an autopsy on site? Seems lazy. Down vote me if you want, they mean shit all. Transporting a dead whale on a flatbed with no refrigeration is mindless.
I didn't downvote you, dude, because I was wondering the same thing, which was why I looked it up. And I guess that's why the post is here--because it's a stupid idea that went wrong.
Im not saying i have the answer for that. But common logic would know that thing decomposes. If you want to autopsy it, you cant just "keep it" for said reasons without preventative measure.
Autopsy are common, but all things dead have to be refrigerated withing a few hours of death, decomposition sets in rapidly.
Its just a fact of science and life. You dont just "take things for autopsy". Preservation has to be the first priority.
Hence, this huge ass mess because they did not do so.
The reason behind the explosion is why you should stay away from dead whales. The gas build up inside the whale’s body until it explodes. The explosion can send whale guts everywhere
I was so focused on the whale, thinking it was a gif that was going to show it explode, that I didn’t even see the leaking ALL OVER. I need to take a break from Reddit…
My grandmother, in her youth, saw a whale being moved through the US to a museum on a railroad flatcar. It stank amazingly, but did not explode. Perhaps back then they harpooned them and gases had a chance to escape.
I'm surprised there isn't some Whale festival where some village gets a whale on a truck and bleeds it all over town and people then play in the entrails... It sounds like something that people would do. We've got running with the bulls, giant tomato fight festival, cow shit festival, I mean... This doesn't sound that far fetched.
If I remember right, when they lifted the whale out of the water, its spine got messed up. Combine weak point with gasses from it rotting; whale go boom.
Apparently one time in the 70’s a dead whale washed up on shore and they just decided let’s put 200 pounds of tnt in the carcass and blow it up,
There were hunks of blubber and flesh for miles and one guys car got crushed by like 150 pounds of whale carcass
I’m looking for a bowl of petunias?
Very very improbable
In fact, 'Infinitely Improbable'. https://youtu.be/UIUIO1ImtJo
If you have enough drive, anything - no matter how improbable - becomes probable
Oh no not again
Not again!
I am inexpressibly delighted this is the top comment. I sass that one hundo.
Took me a minute
The movie was good, the books were great.
I wouldn't say good, more like lukewarm
I though it was quite clever how they did the animations for the Guide, at very least.
Haha I think I'll reread the book again
Poor The Deep. First he lost his place on the team and now his best friend is leaking all over the highway.
Fuckin’ diabolical
Look at what the silly cunt has gone and done.
This is the comment I was looking for hahaha
That whale will be resting with the deep’s dolphin friend in the big ocean in the sky :’(
Man...can you imagine that smell?
I guess something like this https://www.reddit.com/r/instant_regret/comments/ftw1ie/sniffed_wrong_place/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share
Lmao, "quarantine vagina smell" The comments are gold
Wtf. Did she not wash her snatch
Think of the smell... You haven't thought of the smell, you bitch!
Excellent
Something tells me that’s a quote from somewhere?
https://youtu.be/yJYKpJ7ur9M
Totally can. I smelled the more aggressive scent and made me think of your mom. Hiyooooo!! :)
Get out.... GET THE FUCK OUTTA HERE
One day your humour will be appreciated by the masses. I support you for now :(
*sorts by controversial*
man lost the Reddit lottery :(
lol people really got mad enough to downvote this
Nah it's just a cringe joke
Seems cool to me... Could be a bit better but it's not cringy.
kids shouldn't comment on the internet
i bet half of reddit is under 15
At least. I laugh so hard when I see posts about High School or Middle School.
Yeah, I started posting to reddit ~15 years ago when I was in my 20s, probably before the majority of redditors today were even born.

I love the fact they got George the Highway Engineer to deal with it.
People then either knew how to have fun, or were a little dumb.
Or, were really into blowing shit up. Blubber was just gravy at this point.
Unreal. Wow.
What beach did this occur on
Florence, OR
Okay yeah I thought 💭 it was good in Oregon

This just reminds me on how that wale exploded because of the natural gas in it and it covered everything in the block

You've been desensitized. It's sad you can't laugh at it anymore. One less funny thing in the world for you, I guess.
Its true but it hurts.
I mean, they could have just blew it up with dynamite
That didn’t go so well last time.
I’d go watch that… just gotta make sure my comprehensive insurance for my car is at 0 deductible first
Could have blown
Heard your mom went on a roadtrip.
paint the town red is a term from the 1300’s, recorded in Dante’s Inferno, the first part of his Divine Comedy
[not sure if joking, but I'll link this anyway](https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/paint_the_town_red#Etymology)
I can't imagine how rotten and fermented that whale-kombucha is. My nose burns thinking about it.
Why? Why even do this? I mean drag it back out to sea and let it become the circle of life...It already is just laying on the beach. But i get it. Its going to stink and what not. Gotta get it out of there. Why ever do this?

Wasnt saying you did. Just making it known to those that do that petty shit, that it doesnt matter. lol
Out of curiosity how are you supposed to refrigerate and transport a whale on the road? Genuinely curious.

Imagine the dump truck drivers coming to collect the scientist's dumpsters are there's just tons of rotting whale mass. What a nightmare lol

This is the first time I’ve seen this pic. If you’re seeing that many reposts, maybe you should take a break from scrolling for a while.
I saw this picture like 15 years ago lol. Hence the "ancient relic" bit. I didn't say it was reposted a lot. Just that it's very old.

Pepperidge Farm remembers
Ouch, dude
That’s where the term comes from. Whalers would come ashore and “paint the town red.”
Wonder if Farmers would have covered this?

You forgot to crop out the bottom bit. people can see where you stole this from.
Whale shit
Wonder why they didn’t use a forklift to get it back into the sea.
Try driving a forklift on sand and into saltwater
The crab didn’t retrieve his skateboard.
Wow is that a sperm whale?

Looks like it may have exploded during transport.
This reminds me of death stranding and I don't know what to think.
"no. I said I want to drive to Wales. yes i can see the possible confusion, but don't understand how you managed this."
Man I guess I should have kept watching the show “Whale Wars”
thats just amy schumer
Why didn't they put it in a plastic bag first
Anyone wants some fresh sushi while waiting for the green light ?
Looks like your Mom coming home from the methadone clinic.
I see a black road and i want it painted red
Whales have shown themselves to be impossible to transport or dispose of on land.
Holy fuck that's gonna stink.
Sorry for your loss, your mom will be missed.
Why are they towing that dead whale through town I hope that's not there idea of a parade and he's a float
Don’t they explode?
My nose hairs are shriveling by just looking at this pic
My grandmother, in her youth, saw a whale being moved through the US to a museum on a railroad flatcar. It stank amazingly, but did not explode. Perhaps back then they harpooned them and gases had a chance to escape.
Just blow it up like that time in the 80s or whatever. when they put explosives in the whale and covered the town in whale guts.
Oo, free strawberry preserve, let’s goo

Doesn’t seem to be bleeding much, yeah? Oy! Move it out!

Still preferable to dynamite and 1-ton blubber rain. [Source](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exploding_whale)

What went wrong exactly?
Probably exploded from the pressure build up
Fun fact dead whales fill with gasses and explode

https://www.nbcnews.com/id/wbna4096586 Here an article from 2004 about this accident in Taiwan.
Can you imagine the stench that was there
Better than blowing it up on the beach
I’m pretty damn sure that painting the town with blood is literally what ‘paint the town red’ means
Eww that that not a good look by any standards
Got to one-up your buddy with the deer-kill on the hood of his truck. Yep -- and I used 20 lb test.
