Incredible video from an NBC 7 viewer of a gray whale swimming up to say hello to a boat.
Danny Martinez said he was on a boat with his father, Jake, after a day of fishing when the whale approached them.
It happened Tuesday about a mile off the coast of La Jolla, according to Martinez.
"I have never seen a whale approach with so much confidence before," Martinez said. "A once in a lifetime experience!"
Martinez described the whale as friendly, amazed in the video at how big the sea creature is.
