Wild video shows the moment the windsurfer crashes right into a gray whale as it surfaces directly into his path.

The man topples off the board, and the sail collapses into the water, while the whale disappears back into the bay.

The windsurfer appears stunned but unharmed by the incident.

I bet the whale did not even notice it.
It would have been cool if the whale swallowed him whole.

Humpback whale swallows kayaker.
