Exploding whale
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exploding_whale
The term exploding whale most often refers to an event at Florence, Oregon, in 1970, when a dead sperm whale (reported to be a gray whale) was blown up by the Oregon Highway Division in an attempt to dispose of its rotting carcass. The explosion threw whale flesh over 800 feet (240 m) away. This incident became famous in the United States when American humorist Dave Barry wrote about it in his newspaper column after viewing a videotape of television footage of the explosion. The event later became well-known internationally when the same footage circulated on the Internet.
