Zach Piller, 23, of Bensalem, took his phone out to capture his dad Doug's catch while fishing off coast of Belmar on Wednesday, Oct. 12.
That's when the whale came lurching out of the water, smacking the side of the Pillers' boat.
"Oh sh*t," Zach yells from behind the camera. "I got that on video!"
The camera pans to Doug, who looks cool as a cucumber with his fishing line.
