Both RFK Jr and his daughter Kick Kennedy are in news. And what connects them now, it seems, is a dead whale. Kick Kennedy is apparently the new pal of Ben Affleck recently divorced from Jennifer Lopez. And Kennedy Jr is in the news for suspending his campaign as the independent presidential candidate and then endorsing former president Donald Trump. With both the father-daughter in news, the Internet found out the most gruesome story where Kick described how during a childhood trip top Hyannis Port, her father beheaded a dead whale so that he could study at home.
The incident took place in the mid-1990s when Kick was six year old and the family was holidaying.But as he got to know that a whale carcass had washed ashore on Squaw Island, Kennedy Jr got all excited and went to the beach with a chainsaw in hand. He beheaded it right then and then strapped the whale’s head to the family minivan to bring it home for his further study.
“Every time we accelerated on the highway, whale juice would pour into the windows of the car, and it was the rankest thing on the planet,” Kick told the Town & Country magazine in 2012.
“We all had plastic bags over our heads with mouth holes cut out, and people on the highway were giving us the finger, but that was just normal day-to-day stuff for us.”
Kennedy Jr had weird things going on with dead animals and he has been surprisingly candid about all these. Once he found a fatally hit bear cub early one morning. “So I pulled over and I picked up the bear and put him in the back of my van, because I was gonna skin the bear. It was in very good condition and I was gonna put the meat in my refrigerator,” Kennedy said. But then he got distracted by his friends who suggested that they should get rid of the bear. Kennedy Jr actually dropped the dead bear cub in New York’s Central Park. The 2014 incident made headlines but nobody knew it was Kennedy Jr and his gang.
RFK Jr was also photographed with the barbecued skeleton of a four-footed animal which many called a dog but he said it was just a goat.
