A walk along the coast of Baja California, in the Mexico, did not end well. A guide boat with tourists collided with one giant humpback whale and was thrown into the air. Five tourists were injured, three of them required treatment and one in serious condition, the other two were treated at the port, according to the Newsweek portal. The accident happened on the 22nd. The boat was making a trip to Isla Espiritu Santo in the Gulf of California and was returning to the port of La Paz when the incident happened. Zahn The civilian police are investigating the boaters because they need to keep a safe distance from sea creatures. “The whale emerged from the sea and struck the boat, causing some passengers to fall and be injured,” Civil Defense spokesman Benjamin Garcia said. There are reports that the ship exceeded the maximum speed allowed. Authorities could not determine whether the whale was injured in the accident.
