Humpbacks Humping: Whale Sex Caught on Camera

Humpback Whales Mating: Filmed for the Very First Time

Photographer Jason Edwards scored the shot of a lifetime: a photo of two humpback whales having sex off the coast of Tonga. While humpback whale "heat runs" (the mobile singles bars in which male whales vie for female approval) have been documented before, this is the first time that anyone's actually seen them seal the deal. Or nail the whale. You get the idea.

The description of humpback whale sex is straight out of 50 Shades of Grey: "Placing a pectoral fin over her flank, he stroked her gently during the act. After the pair broke apart, the female released a burst of bubbles from her mouth, rather than through the spout."

However, before you add "Doin' It" as a soundtrack, you must first know that LLCoolJ would not approve of the male whale's performance:

The humpback whale footage will appear as part of National Geographic's Great Australians. They won't use LLCoolJ in their soundtrack, but, you know what, we will.
