I just read a story that explosives were washing up on Oregon beaches. I think we all can agree we have a solution to both problems.

Damn. Had to rewatch that is still one of the funniest things ever.

So, my dad thought this was just the greatest, funniest thing in the world and we still have his original VHS recording of the exploding whale news segment somewhere. It’s whispered about as a family anecdote to this day.

I saw a dead humpback whale calf on Ruby Beach almost exactly 4 years ago... my group also commented that it wasn't smelly at all, until we were slightly downwind of it. Then it was... quite smelly.

I saw a dead beached whale in SoCal probably almost 10 years ago now. We didn’t stay long because of the smell. Omg that was horrendous. And there were people in the water with the whale so they could touch it I guess. I imagine the smell seeped into their clothes too. (It was a beached whale but it was high tide so it was about 5’ from where the water stopped. )

Is this a current picture? I’d totally take a trip there to see a dead whale

It is. Park at the Ruby Beach parking area off of Hwy 101. Head north once you walk down to the ocean. 47.71800, -124.41925. It’s less than a mile from the parking area. It’s fresh: few signs of decay as of Sunday and the smell wasn’t that bad.

You'll smell it before you see it. Bring a clothespin for your nose.

I saw video of Orcas attacking a humpback whale last week. Maybe they won.
