Perfect timing led to this amazing moment being captured on film. Jaimen Hudson was flying his drone off the coast in Western Australia when he saw two huge shapes rise from the depths of the ocean next to a lone paddle boarder.
“It just so happened that he was out at the time, and a few people let me know there were whales on the beach and it all just went from there,” Hudson explained. “They were really curious and came over to meet [Dave] … Just very inquisitive about him, I don’t think it was really that dangerous at all.”
Another interesting note: Jamien was injured in a motorcycle accident that left him with minimal control of his limbs. He captured this incredible footage while controlling the drone with his thumbs and shoulder.
The aspiring filmmaker, who has been sharing his whale drone videos on Instagram, said “the reaction to this clip has been huge and I really enjoy doing it, so hopefully I can take it further one day.” Check it out and share today!
