Primitive ascii footage of the event was rapildy emailed across the protointernets later the same day. And it has been forwarded ever since.

I don't think this is technically a double, since as far as I can tell, "the definitive Exploding Whale website on the internet!" hasn't been linked before. There is nonetheless a certain dense fog of "already been there" wafting about it.

Can we post the link about the electrocuted elephant too? Sort of the same thing, isn't it?

Seriously? I think this might have been the first video ever encoded and uploaded. It's that old.
