The guy was diving, so it’s possible he had an oxygen tank. My guess is that in that case you’re even less likely to go through the animal though.

He had a scuba tank. Most likely filled with air, maybe oxygen enriched air. Pure oxygen is dangerous below about 5 meters.

Woof. I hadn’t even considered, what if the whale dove while you were in it’s mouth before spitting you out! Rapid descent, the bends, oxygen narcosis. Not good! That guys is lucky he was spat out on the surface!

This is why I only dive in caves.

It's also dangerous near the surface when the son of a bitch is smiling.
