That's very interesting David, You got hit by the hand of God! That's what the whalers used to call the fluke of the whale, when it came up and smashed there little follow boats to bits some times.

While a planesman aboard my ship in '84, we appeared to have crept up on the back of a group of sperm whales and the back fluke of a rather large specimen came down and smacked our torpedoe room. It then turned around and saw this really big black object behind it and it screamed for the longest time masking all our sonar gear.
