    If the whale were alive, you'd be dead before you hit bottom. Theoretically, if the whale were dead and cut open, you could use the rib cage for shelter.

    BTW, if you were thinking about the Jonah myth, there is no mention of a whale; the Bible says either leviathan or great fish, depending on the translation. Even so, you would not live to tell of it.

    the pressure of how deep the whale goes will kill you plus you wont get much oxygen close to nothing, plus whales swallow water try fighting that water and not being swallowed, the only chace of getting out of there is through if the spit you out of that hole thing.. but you proabbly would still die, and also you need food to live and *FRESH* water. and unless you are an alien and dont need oxygen then no, you can't live inside a whale sorry. oh make me best answer please.

    nope. you would not be able to survive the pressure from the jumps and dives they do and some do go very low in the ocean so that is where the pressure comes into play.
