New Delhi: Adventure sports are very popular with people around the world, including water sports and sea surfing. Some go to the extent of deep-sea diving or just move around in their boats. The video that we are sharing with you today is about an excursion into the sea, where we see three men on a boat in a celebratory mood. Just next to their boat is what looks like a dead whale. There is some chit-chat among the three, and two of them jump on the floating dead whale. They cheer themselves up like they have achieved something great by jumping on the whale carcass and celebrating.
