You see a dead whale floating near your boat. What do you do?
If you answered: “surf on it!” congrats! You’re as moronic as Harrison
Williams.
Williams, a 26-year-old extreme sports lover, was on a boat with some
friends off western Australia over the weekend when they noticed
something very large bobbing in the water.
It turned out to be a several-week-old dead whale.
Unlike a normal person, Williams thought it be totally rad if he swam
over and “surfed” on the whale. Which he did, much to the delight of his
friends.
But then Williams looked down and noticed about a billion sharks
enjoying some decaying whale sashimi, including a less-than-friendly
Great White.
And so, in his only sane act of the day, Williams wisely got his friends
to rescue him with the boat, narrowly avoiding a Darwin Award
nomination.
Williams told reporters his parents think he’s a complete idiot and
we’re not going to argue with them.
