Maybe the kid thought, "You've got something on your pants, sir. Let me get that for you." Let’s hope it’s just a trick of perspective and not as awkward as it looks!

This is nothing but a high-level photobomb by nature. That's an excellent dive. I'd give that whale a 10/10 and a medal for being bold like Free Willy.

All this whale needs is some wings and a halo. I'd like to see dolphins get this kind of air. Coming up, sometimes, one mammal thinks they can eat kids through the glass.

The girl suddenly gets swallowed hole as the beluga whale dashed through the glass. That actually didn't happen, but it's cute how the whale thinks they can eat her through the glass.
