Earlier this year, Scott Portelli, an Australia diver and trip leader, captured a very unexpected event when a false killer whale suddenly jumped over a guest. Or actually, behind a guest. The perspective looks otherwise though!

According to Portelli, “Today out on the water we had an unexpected encounter with a large pod of false killer whales.” One of the false killer whales from the pod swam under the snorkler and suddenly leaped (what appears to be) right over him. This is a truly fun, and rare event, which Portelli has luckily caught on camera. 

“(You) never know what you are going to see in Tonga.”
