A 400 pound preserved Blue Whale heart arrived at the ROM this morning. The Blue Whale is the world's largest animal ever known to have lived on Earth.
how do you know ? maybe this was a young one. but yeah reading books as a kid i always read them saying the heart was about the size of a fusca (volkswagen/beetle)
It’s not necessarily the limit of cardiovascular abilities. The principle upon which it is designed is not limited and works just as well in a humming bird weighing 2 grams, let alone 100 tons. It is more correct to say that man cannot envisage how the heart could function at a yet larger size, than to say it could not.
They do a special type of preservation that dries it out leaving a sort of taxidermy mumifies tissue that will not rot so yeah it looks fake but thats how the dissected preserved bodies at the bodies museum look like too
This heart came from a whale that washed up on shore of my hometown.
Ok....its amazing
you want it back dont you?

@dester2790why do u care?
I remember some museums had giant blue whale hearts that you can crawl around inbut in reality the heart is actually smaller than those.

Pretty sure it's bc, the whale is the biggest thing we have . Life said its the biggest
Pretty sure she meant the upper limit of what we know now.
what i want to know is. was it 400 pounds before or AFTER the plastination?
what if it gets a heart attack? can you do cpr?
bruhhhhhhhh...
they don’t eat junk food. Heart attacks not possible for whales
Maybe with a truck
subhaanaAllah
So for an animal to be much larger it would need more than one heart?
Lukas Stratmann I do not believe so, most dinosaurs that were aquatic and larger then the blue whale had a single heart
@@tsarbomba4620 then why does octopus has 3 hearts
@@sahhilmalhi 3 heart? Or 3 chambered heart?

It most definitely is real to scale and everything the real heart is probably in storage. It took 4 people to push the heart out.
400 pounds? They weigh max around 900 kilos right? So about 2000 pounds..
it beats 4 times per minute

Did the whale die?
Oh no it didn't, it's still roaming without the heart, it goes to the same school as me
No no...he just gave his heart to do the experiments..later on ..he is just roaming here nd there
No..the whale still in the sea...

The largest creature, but not the longest. Shoe string worn is apparently.
