A woman was knocked from her boat off the Jersey Shore when a distressed whale bashed the vessel, shocking footage shows.
The incident went down Sunday off in Barnegat Bay in New Jersey, when a small motor boat came across a minke that was seen thrashing in shallow waters.
The whale became frantic and ended up under the boat's hull - eventually tipping the vessel during the thrashing and sending a woman into the water.
Mancini stated, 'It was really in distress. That's when it would go under boats, it was a crazy experience.'
