We only see each other at weddings and funerals

So I’m sure you recognize this as one of the epic moments from “The Prince of Egypt” where we see the super majestic whale as they cross through the Red Sea. However I noticed just one little issue: whale tales don’t move from side to side, they move up and down. And then it hit me, that’s not a whale. That’s not a whale. It’s a motherfucking SHARK. A BIG ASS MEGALODONIAN SHARK. WAITING IN THE WATER TO EAT THE PHARAOH’S SOLDIERS. Goddamn, Dreamworks.

At first I thought it was a whale shark. Megalodon sharks went extinct about 1,500,000 years ago. The Prince of Egypt takes place about 3,300 years ago. BUT using the height of the people as a rough estimate, the animal in the picture is about 90-100ft long. The shape of it clearly says “shark” but the only animal that size is the blue whale. Megalodon, the largest known shark, was 46-59ft. But on the other other hand, the air/water interface has a magnifying effect that we have to take into account! Things appear 4/3 larger than they really are. Which puts our creature at about 70-75ft. Still bigger than any known shark. Conclusion: it’s Leviathan.
