The Terrifying Words of a Young Man Who Was Miraculously Saved After Being Swallowed By a Whale.

According to the accident news service of Saed News, two days ago, a 23-year-old Venezuelan sailor named Adrián Simancas was rowing with his father in the Strait of Magellan off the coast of Chile when, in an instant, a humpback whale swallowed him.

At that moment, his father managed to capture the terrifying scene with his camera. However, within seconds, the young man emerged from the whale’s mouth and surfaced.

In a video interview about the incident, Adrián said: "While I was rowing, I suddenly felt a slimy texture touch my face. Moments later, I realized I was inside the mouth of a giant fish—something like a sea monster."

He continued: "I closed my eyes, and when I opened them again, I realized I was inside the whale’s mouth. Everything was blue and white. I kept thinking, if it had swallowed me, what could I do?"

Just as Adrián was wondering how he could survive inside the whale like Pinocchio, the whale spat him out. Within seconds, he felt himself rising toward the surface, and when he reached the water's surface, he realized that the whale had not swallowed him.

His father, who was watching in disbelief, said: "We were both in the boat, talking, and in the blink of an eye, Adrián went into the sea. I saw a giant creature and realized that the whale had swallowed him. I was in shock for a moment until I saw him come out of the water."

He added that he had mounted a camera on the back of his kayak to record the rising waves but instead captured the astonishing event involving his son.

However, this experience will not stop Adrián from going back to the sea or waiting for whales. He has announced that he will return to the ocean once again to see the humpback whales.
