A humpback whale had the unfortunate experience of almost swallowing a human man on Friday. According to local news station WBZ-TV, Michael Packard, 56, was diving for lobster off the coast of Provincetown, Massachusetts early on Friday morning, when, suddenly, everything went dark. “Oh my God, I’m in a whale’s mouth, and he’s trying to swallow me,” recounted the lobster diver. “I thought to myself, 'hey, this is it. I’m finally going to die. There’s no getting out of here.’”
