  1. I still can't get over the fact that we did that yesterday Rich. Nice one mate, one to remember....
  2. Just a bit on th BBC news but it's not available on Iplayer Tom. The documentary will be on C4 at the end of the year 'Inside Natures Giants', you'll see me cutting the blow hole and exposing the heart.
  3. I'll never forget that smell as long as I live. Friday it was fresh, yesterday it stank like you couldn't imagine. It was hissing and bubbling as it decayed and when I cut into the skull there was brain and fluid flying everywhere. Don't fancy ever doing that again. It all went to landfill.
  4. I only took four, Rich gave his camera to someone on site to take pics and has about a hundred and he'll post some later. He's sitting in my front room eating fish n chips atm
  5. Just got back. Me n Rich did it. You would not believe how gorey today was, pics coming soon.
  6. Got a call this morning, gotta go back to cut the thing into sections.
  7. Huge! About the size of a climbers kit bag.
  8. I didn't notice it that much tbh, some were gagging though, especially when the saw went in . What did surprise me was that the heart and inside the cavity was still very warm.
  9. Like a knife through butter Tom. I had to cut away part of the rib cage so they could get the heart out. Then I helped to pull it out.
  10. Sorry boys but I have been rather busy cutting up a whale today. I'll catch up on this in the morning. Thanks Dave and Lee.....
  11. Today was different to say the least.
