Whale collision gives Norwegian kayaker near miss

A Norwegian kayaker has had a near miss with humpback whale on a trip to Gyllefjord at Senja.

Berthold Hinrichs from north Norway collided with a humpback whale in his kayak on a trip last week.

During his tour he collided with the 20-tonne whale when the mammal decided to surface for air just underneath his kayak.
