Swimming with the wonderful sea animals is a dream come true for marine life enthusiasts.
However, sometimes one life is not enough to achieve this goal, and it turns out that some people are luckier than others!
This group of freedivers at sea has always wanted to get up close and personal with a whale.
Their wish was granted recently, and they even videotaped the once-in-a-lifetime encounter, with incredible results!
All of the divers are experienced divers who have traveled the world in search of the elusive blue whales.
However, they were soon faced by the enormous sharks off the coast. ‘Swimming with whales was one of our weirdest and most improbable fantasies,’ one diver said.
‘And we were fortunate to come across a large group of whales here.’
Finally, we were able to look the blue whale in the eyes twice during our time at sea.
‘For a few seconds of interaction, it was worth forty hours,’ one of the divers said.
‘I was arranging my return to the boat when she suddenly confronted me.’ I shifted in my seat, looking for his eyes, which were difficult to find in such a majestic creature!
