dunno if anyone has posted this before:

 

A dead sperm whale has exploded while being delivered to a research center near the southwestern city of Tainan.

 

Passers-by and cars were soaked in blood and body parts were sprayed over a road after the bursting of the whale, which was being carried on a trailer.

 

The whale had died earlier on a beach and had been collected so its remains could be used for educational purposes.

 

A marine biologist blamed the explosion on pressure from gases building up in the mammal as it began to decompose.

 

The whale attracted a lot of onlookers both before and after it exploded.

Several parked cars and pedestrians got covered in blood when it exploded.
