Giant Ejaculation
‘A 50-TON decomposing sperm whale exploded while being transported through Tainan City, Taiwan, on its way to a research centre.
The incident splattered cars and shops with blood and blubber.
National Cheng Kung Universitys Professor Wang Chien-ping had ordered the remains to be taken to the Shi-Tsao Natural Preserve.
He said: ‘The animal was close to death when someone found it beached on shore on Saturday. Because of the natural decomposing process, a lot of gases accumulated, and when the pressure build-up was too great, the belly exploded.’
No Japanese were thought to be involved.’
