Man survives being swallowed by whale

Feeding frenzy: Despite their huge jaws, humpback whales have narrow throats of about 15cm in diameter. This means they have to spit out anything wider than a human fist, including large fish, as well as people in kayaks.

Is he a modern-day Jonah? A kayaker has miraculously escaped the jaws of a humpback whale. Some think this encounter could be a warning to the rest of us.
