While out at sea, the guys made a friend who has a love of rugby - a Beluga Whale.

One of the guys threw out the rugby ball, and the whale swam out, caught it and brought it back - so cute!

The video since went viral on social media. 

WATCH THE SPECIAL MOMENT!

Beluga Whales are highly intelligent, playful, and have even mastered how to swim backwards. They are highly interactive with their own species, as well as many other species they encounter.
