Swallowed By A Whale - The Sign Of Jonah
Contributed by Dr. Fred W. Penney on Feb 13, 2025 (message contributor)
Jonah was in the belly of a great fish for 3 days and 3 nights!
A kayaker from Chile was in the mouth of a Humpback whale for about 3 seconds - before being spit out!
The story was reported by CNN (February 13, 2025)
A humpback whale briefly swallowed a 24-year-old kayaker last Saturday during a father-son excursion out on the icy waters around Chile’s southernmost Patagonia region.
The sagas was even captured on camera by the kayaker’s father.
“I thought it swallowed me,” Adrian said. “... I felt a slimy texture; I saw colors like dark blue, white, something approaching from behind that closed… and sank me, At that moment, I thought there was nothing I could do, that I was going to die.”
Said his Dad, "three seconds later I see he’s shot up to the surface and the pack raft after him.”
