According to a few social media users, the humpback whale swallowed the women first, and then after some time, it spits out the women. After some time, the incident went online and become trending. Many people believed that the story was wrongly labelled as footage. It is not at all true, it is very distant from reality.
Why did the fake news spread?
A Facebook video was uploaded online with a caption that ignited the rumors. The caption stated A humpback whale swallowed two girls in California. This spread the hearsay where it stated that the women were swallowed before spitting them out. The women were almost the food for the whale, the caption continues.
The viewpoint of the video stated that the woman fell into the mouth of the whale. However, in reality they fell into the water, not into the mouth of a whale. The reports of CNN in 2020 stated that women, fortunately, managed to escape from the whale.
