On October 16, 2026, in Oslob, Cebu, Philippines, @sandugo_3rdy shared an underwater video showing him helping a Chinese tourist during a whale shark encounter. In the footage, the author notices the woman swimming without realizing that a whale shark is approaching behind her. He quickly guides her away from the animal's path and moves her to a safer position. The whale shark is then seen repeatedly opening and closing its mouth as it engages in suction feeding, a behavior it uses to draw in water and filter out food. According to the author, he jokingly described the moment as saving the woman from the mouth of the gentle giant.
