Anti-Whaling Whale [The Wrong Whale]   (+5)  [vote for, against]
With around 140,000 shaft horsepower each side

The best whales to harpoon became known as Right Whales. This one is certainly the wrong one.

Oce you've managed to harpoon this "whale" it reels in the recycled nuclear submarine that stooges around underneath it, waiting for a harpoon strike.

The sub then "harpoons" the whaling ship with a series of massive electromagnets to its hull and sets off at high speed for whale-free waters, releasing the whalers in the relatively barren tropical waters near the equator and going back for another one.

The secret is to develop a suitably realistic animatronic whale, to sucker them in.

What it should do is head directly toward any port in the north of Wales and dump the crew there.

Only because it can't get to the Temple Of The Mount, in Jerusalem?

Nice. The electromagnets might even have the added benefit of disabling their communications and navigation systems and preventing their speedy return. I would say you should drop them in the Bermuda Triangle, but Bermuda seems to be a mite less threatening than once it was. Drop 'em in the northeast passage, and lodge 'em in the ice.

Fair enough. I considered running them aground, but that just amounts to piracy
