Two Gold Coast adventurers in Australia have had a rare close encounter with humpback whales off South Stradbroke Island. A mother humpback whale and her calf approached the swimmers, diving deep out of sight and then rising slowly next to their new friends. This exchanged happened for about an hour, enough time for one of the swimmers to take a selfie with the majestic giants.
