London, July 31 (ANI): Sir Richard Branson has revealed that he swam into the mouth of a whale shark earlier this month despite having undergone laser eye surgery recently.
Branson, 61, revealed that though he was delighted with the surgery and could see "perfectly" again, he still managed to accidentally swim into the whale shark's mouth.
"I was swimming around one of these gentle giants off Cancun in Mexico - and then, suddenly, I realised I had managed to get myself right inside it," the Telegraph quoted him as saying.
"Whales sharks have got enormous mouths and this one just literally puffed me out. They are gigantic, but gentle.
"I think the story of Jonah most likely came from a whale shark. I can't really think of anything else living in the sea that could swallow you without also killing you," he added. (ANI)
