Did you know that whales sleep while standing completely upright? 🤯 When they feel sleepy, they dive about 15 meters deep and position themselves vertically in the water! 💤

These magnificent creatures sleep in groups of five or six, ensuring each other’s safety! 🏊‍♂️💙

😲 But the most astonishing fact is that whales do not breathe while sleeping! 🫢 They remain completely still and silent for 10 to 15 minutes, just like a massive underwater building! ⏳

In 2008, scientists discovered this unique sleeping behavior for the first time, and in 2017, a French photographer, Stephane Granzotto, captured this phenomenon in a stunning photograph! 📸🌊
