In this video from the BBC we look at the blue whale. Dwarfed by the vast expanse of the open ocean, the biggest animal that has ever lived on our planet: a blue whale. Thirty metres long and weighing over 200 tonnes, it's far bigger than even the biggest dinosaur. Its tongue weighs as much as an elephant, its heart is the size of a car and some of its blood vessels are so wide you could swim down them. Its tail alone is the width of a small aircraft&'s wings. Its streamlining, close to perfection, enables it to cruise at 20 knots - one of the fastest creatures in the sea.
