Fox News previously reported that Chris Clarke was fishing off the Lyme Regis coast in England when a humpback whale made its way near his boat, the South West News Service (SWNS) reported. He was reportedly out on Friday, July 24, but did not see the whale until Sunday night.

“We had been awake all night working and we saw them go by,” he told SWNS. “It certainly woke us up a bit. Two of them were very far away, but one swam next to us and jumped out of the water. “
