Mantas 3 Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 WTF....Has anyone seen these before or know anything about them? Not really going for shock value here. These photos turned up in my inbox today. Link to post Share on other sites

thursday 1 Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 Looks like a carcass, probably beached, being transported for disposal but the guts fell out. Looks like Taiwan. Link to post Share on other sites

bushpig 0 Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 If I remember rightly the thing exploded while being driven through a town in China. Not quite sure, but I think it might have been some kind of festival. Link to post Share on other sites
bushpig 0 Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 Here you go. It was Taiwan. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/science/nature/3437455.stm Quote: A dead sperm whale has exploded while being delivered to a research centre near the southwestern city of Tainan. Passers-by and cars were soaked in blood and body parts were sprayed over a road after the bursting of the whale, which was being carried on a trailer... Link to post Share on other sites
samurai 0 Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 I guess that explains the whale dream I had last night about a whale returning to the same harbor day after day. My wife and I tried to scare it back into deeper water. I completely forgot about it until I saw these pictures. I guess I just wanted to share my weird take on those. WTF?
