A surfacing whale hit a fishing boat off the New Hampshire coast this week capsizing the vessel.

A couple of brothers captured the moment on video, and then rescued the two people who were thrown from the fishing boat.

Experts say the whale didn't appear to be injured and it was likely breaching to catch a fish and didn't see the fishing boat.
