Oh crap! I missed the anniversary of Exploding Whale Day.
FLORENCE, Ore — On Nov. 9, 1970, a 45-foot sperm whale had washed up on the beach near Florence, but as KATU reporter Paul Linnman noted at the time, it later became "a stinking whale of a problem." Legendary story.
This really did happen. Like really.
The video was remastered for the 50th anniversary. https://youtu.be/V6CLumsir34
