jacktellsliesI was wondering if you'd be so kind as to tell me your thoughts on this?
The Whale Hunt.
So far as I can tell, nearly all of this is preparation. At the very end Inuits, and, it seems, an artist or journalist or two, hunt and harpoon a whale. The body is pulled to shore, and the community pulls the leviathan out of the water by hand, with rope. They cut it using an immense blade on a pole, something like a scalpel the size of a spear, and pull the meat away in strips with hooks.
