So you’re on a holiday in South-Africa and because you love watching whales, you charter a yacht to take a closer look. This couple got more then they bargained for after a 40-ton Southern Right Whale jumped up from the ocean and crashed on their rental yacht. Luckily another tourist made pictures of the incident, so they had photographic proof it wasn’t their fault that the yacht was wrecked on their return.
This is how the yacht looked like after the incident:
Nobody was hurt in the incident, the whale just continued its course after the collision:

No wonder, if you are pretending to be a saint…. but are not. The whale is a very catholic animal (Jona) and knows how to deal with these imposters.
