I agree with Mum…..
26 year old Harrison Williams of Quinns Rock, Perth was out on a boat off the coast of Fremantle, Western Australia with some friends yesterday when he spotted the dead whale floating in the water. “One of my mates said it would be pretty funny to surf the whale, so I did it,”
Mr Williams was seemingly unafraid of the fact that several tiger sharks and a massive great white were circling around the carcass at the time. After diving into the water, he climbed on top of the half eaten whale and ‘surfed’ it until his friends pulled the boat near enough for him to jump back on-board safely.
He did not think he was in danger at the time. “[The sharks] were too busy chomping on the whale so it wasn’t too bad,” he said. Not everyone shares his assessment of the situation though. “Mum thinks I’m an idiot, dad’s not too proud either,” he confessed.
