She Feared for Her Life
So far, the only part of the body the whale had used to push her was his head, but he could have easily pushed her near his flippers or tail. This was dangerous because with one swing of either appendage, the whale could knock her out, send her hurling into the ocean floor, or kill her. At this point, she knew that she was either going to lose her life from blunt trauma or drowning, but all hope was not lost.
