A viral video showing two men standing and posing for photographs on top of a deceased whale has sparked significant backlash across social media. The footage, which allegedly involves a group of intoxicated fishermen, has raised concerns regarding the ethical treatment of marine life and the potential safety risks associated with such actions. The video depicts two men laughing and posing for pictures while standing on the floating carcass of a whale. While the exact location and date of the recording have not been officially verified, the individual who originally uploaded the footage suggested the group was under the influence of alcohol at the time. In a caption accompanying the post, the uploader claimed the whale had only recently died, stating the animal "wasn't rotten" and dismissively attributing the behavior to the group's intoxication. The footage has triggered a wave of criticism from wildlife advocates and the general public. Many viewers described the act as a "reckless" display of "clout-chasing," arguing that the men showed a total lack of respect for the animal.
