• Okay, people! IT WAS DEAD. It wasn’t alive. It seems to me that you moaners need chill out and see the humor in this. My parents were down there then, having grown up in Florence, and my mom was at first horrified when the stink, oil and carcass flew all over the place, but as what happens when most people’s adrenaline subsided, her and my dad found it absolutely hilarious. Look, I don’t condone this action were the animal alive, but relax a little. It won’t kill ya!

• Great material, very interesting. However, on all the exploding whale sites, none of the hi-res streams have ever worked for me. Only the dumb lo-res works. Is this true for other people? Are we doomed to see only the blurry, impressionistic exploding whale?

• I think I was first sent a link to Whale Barry about 10 years ago. Ever since then I have popped on the web to find it and ammuse myself again and again. Now a new member of our team at work has been introduced to Whale Barry – and it takes me back to when I first saw it myself. The funniest thing on the web since ‘the big red button’ and ‘meat’. Thanks.

• MMMMM… exploding whaaaaaaaaaaaale… ::drool:: anyway, this clearly demonstrates the intersection of two important principles: 1. If brute force doesn’t work you’re not using ENOUGH 2. There is no problem that can not be solved through the judicious application of ENOUGH high explosive The US Navy whale disposal team (yes, they have one) recomended using AT LEAST 1 full ton of TNT in oreder to vaporise the whale. There is only so much one can do with a 8 ton carcase.

• This episode could have been an alternate ending to the falling sperm whale episode in Douglas Adams’ Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy series. Only rather than the pot of petunias saying, “Oh no, not again,” it could have been the whale! You gotta love it!

• I love this news story. I got a copy of it over 15 years ago from some news editors I used to work with. I keep a copy at the ofice and one at home – Watching it is one of my favorite stress relievers. It also helps me keep a little perspective when I have to go cover stories that are less than enjoyable. Thanks for sharing it and all the background info too.

• I actually hunted this story down after reading an “Oddly Enough” piece off Reuters. LOL! The story is about a Sperm whale on a flat bed truck going for autopsy. The gasses, from decomposing tissues, reached critical point and the whale messily exploded. How else is a whale going to explode? The latest story will keep the old story alive.Thank you for having it accessible after all these years.

• This just in! A new “exploding whale” story! While no explosives were involved, the result was pretty much the same: http://www.etaiwannews.com/Taiwan/2004/01/27/1075168255.htm (Link may not work for all.)

• I think HEARTBROKEN from SHUTUP has more issues then exploding dead whales! And yes I thought it was funny! Of course we learn from our mistakes. As for all you American haters our there, we’re more reasonable than you think. However, we’ll never understand your positions because we aren’t blinded by jealousy or envy when we think of other nations.

• I was born in 1962, and hadn’t quite turned 9 when the incident happened. I remember watching Mr. Linnman on channel 2 news in my home in Corvallis, Oregon, when they showed the tape. This was before we had VCRS and even video tape. Anyway, I’ve told the story many times, but until I found this website, most folks wouldn’t believe me. Thanks for building this site and giving credibility to an incredible story! -John B
