What happens when a whale jumps off the top ropes on to your sailboat?
“We had been taking some pictures and had just decided to head back when a Southern Right whale, between 11 – 14 m long, breached about 100 meters away from us.

When I was younger we spent a lot of time in and near lakes, rivers and ponds. Were were allowed to swim and play as long as there were no lightning storms. It made sense, lightning is dangerous, but I had never actually seen anyone get hit by lightning on a lake until now. I came across these gruesome photos a little while back and was blown away. It’s a grim reminder of how important it is to get your boat off the water when the weather gets bad.
LAKE CHARLES, La. (AP) – A lightning strike on a fishing boat killed one man
and injured another. State wildlife agents say Saturday’s strike on Old
Black Bayou near Lake Charles killed 44-year-old Joe Landry. He was
pronounced dead at the scene. His fishing partner – Richard Bergeron of Lake
Charles- was treated and released later Saturday from a hospital.
Investigators say the two were attempting to pick up anchor and retreat from
a small storm when lightning hit.
