Dead Whale Bomb

Earlier tonight I watched a Discovery Channel/National Geographic show about a dead sperm whale that exploded as it was being transported through downtown in Taiwan.

That's right, a dead whale EXPLODED in a metropolitan area. Blood and guts EVERYWHERE.

It didn't explode from a bomb or anything like that (though some people did think that originally. "Terrorists are now planting bombs in beached whales AAAAHHHH!!") Essentially it exploded because of the rate of decay from being in the heat and the gasses building up inside of the carcass.

Don't play with dead animals, especially 50-ton sperm whales.
