Kayaker Berthold Hinrichs got a close up view of a whale off the coast of Norway. The local businessman has been paddling when he came across a group of whales who didn't seem to be bothered by his presence.One of the whale's surfaced right alongside as it swam past his small craft. Hinrichs said one of the whales briefly carried his kayak on its back before swimming off.
