Want to see a whale do a magic trick?
A seemingly magical sea dweller was caught spouting water - and a rainbow - out of its blowhole. A rainbow is seen cascading out of the whale and into the deep sea along with spouted water.
Blowholes, located on top of a whale's head, are what the creatures use to breathe.
A whale watcher caught the phenomenon on tape during a 2011 cruise in Nova Scotia. Video of the miraculous refraction has now gone viral.
"It looks as if the whale is blowing a rainbow out of its blowhole," rsean9000 posted along with the video on YouTube.
