    It sounds like something out of a Hollywood movie, but the bizarre incident with Michael Packard and a humpback whale was actually reality.

While some say his story is a bit fishy, scuba diver Rainer Schimpf had an almost identical experience two years ago, and has the photos to prove it! Experts say there is about a 1-in-1-trillion chance of getting swallowed by a whale.
