Photos Show Diver Getting Sucked Up and Spat Out by a Whale

Dive tour operator Rainer Schimpf was documenting a sardine run in February off the coast of South Africa when something unexpected and terrified happened:

Schimpf was sucked into the mouth of a whale and then spat out, and the whole thing was caught on camera.

Photographer Heinz Toperczer was photographing Schimpf at work when his rapid-fire series of shots captured the incident as it unfolded.
