Picture: Possibly the best animal photobomb we’ve seen

We've seen some pretty amazing photobombs in the past, but this photobombing whale is possibly one of the biggest, and best, we've seen.

This picture has a nice animal theme to it as it features a young gull and a limelight-hogging whale. The pic was tweeted out by @raubrey yesterday and it was quickly favoured and retweeted by thousands of people.

It’s a pretty impressive pic, but it’s got a lot of people wondering whether it’s actually real or not. Some say that it has to be fake seeing as there are barely any waves being created by the whale as it breaches the water, while others say the whale is just too close inland to be jumping around.

The JOE CSI team has been busy taking a look at this epic photobomb, but they’re too busy putting on sunglasses in a dramatic fashion and shouting ‘YEEEEEAH’ to make up their minds. So, what do you think? Epic photobomb or a seriously good fake?

As one of the lads in the office said, "It's possible, but not probable". Wise words...

What would Horatio think?
