Man swallowed whole by a whale

Wow this is a new one. According to the website truthorfiction dot com, there's been a story about a man who got swallowed whole by a whale.



The excerpt:
In the early days of the 20th Century, an English fisherman was flung from his whaling ship and went missing, presumably dead. He was thereafter found alive inside the belly of a whale that got harpooned by the whaling ship. He survives the ordeal after receiving some medical treatment, although his skin is bleached by the gastric juices of the whale's stomach.

True or false? You decide. I personally thought it could be possible at first, however I read on and discovered that people found flaws in the story, such as accounts of the man being with others at the time of incident. Personally I wouldn't know what to believe, so you decide for yourself. But regardless of the truth, this is definitely an eye opening story.
