The whale has been dead for weeks, according to people who live in the area. Its body is trapped in ice; half in, half out of the water. Brian King said he heard about the whale a few weeks ago, but waited for a calm, clear day to capture video.

A number of dead whales, including humpbacks, blue whales and right whales have washed up on Newfoundland's shores in recent years.
