Whale Bomb

I remember hearing about another whale exploding on the streets of China a few years ago. Well, it happened again in Taiwan. This time with a Sperm Whale:

Why would the researchers wait until now to move a whale from the beach. Did they not think about the consequences of letting a whale decompose for 2 months before doing a necropsy?

Can you imagine the carnage? Putrid whale entrails splattered on the buildings, cars, and the street with such force and volume that it stopped traffic...

yomama:

I can't believe this happened again. Even more idiotic, that the size of the stinky dead decomposing sperm whale's penis drew a crowd of admirers.

Architeuthis:

ahhhh yes. The exploding whale trick. If you recall the aroma of the decomposed tuna in the ice chest trick - what a spectacle that had to be. I guess this whale also gave many Taiwanese men an extreme case of microphallic tendencies.

Minori:

A bit early but - Happy birthday to you! Will sing out loud as soon as I wake up on 4/3.
