A viral video from SeaWorld San Antonio has left the internet both cringing and laughing after a whale decided to drop an unexpected “gift” mid-performance. In the clip, the massive marine mammal can be seen taking a very noticeable poop right before making a big splash. Unfortunately for the unsuspecting crowd in the splash zone, they got more than just soaked—they were doused in water immediately after the whale did its business.
While the video doesn’t specify exactly when the incident occurred, it’s quickly racking up views and sparking reactions across social media. From people joking about the worst possible day to sit in the splash zone, to those expressing sympathy for the unlucky visitors, the clip is a perfect storm of awkward hilarity.
Let this be a reminder: if you’re at a marine park, the splash zone might offer a little more than what you bargained for!
