The "feather" like material looks to be baleen the structure used to filter the water and catch the small food, such as krill, that the whale feeds on.

Hey guys, what a cool video. How often are we reminded what a small world we live in. I’ve never been to Barrow, but I did live four years in Anchorage when I was a teenager. Fast-forward many years and many countries, and I am living in a log cabin in Wimberley Texas. Alaska and the little town of Wimberley in Texas are two of my favorite spots. I am now living on the border in Texas and travel back-and-forth to Mexico a lot. It would be great to meet up with you guys sometime. Wimberley is a great place to stay grounded and I hope you hang on to your property there.

Really cool video!! It's funny that y'all are from Wimberly, I moved to Alaska from the Canyon Lake area!! I love it up here, and live on the Kenai Peninsula, near Ninilchik. My love affair with Alaska started exactly where you shot this video... Barrow. My 5th grade teacher had spent the summer before the school year teaching at the Native School. Her stories, photos, movies, and slides became firmly embedded in an impressionable 10 year old boy!! That was 61 years ago, but I finally made it. I'm retiring up here. If you all ever decide you want to visit the Kenai Peninsula - the salmon and halibut fishing capital of the world, let me know and we'll see what I can arrange for ya. Bill

Also, pretty sure with the Whale Blubber being used as fuel- it would be converted to an oil. The same thing was done with other sea animals in the 1900's (DO NOT GOOGLE MACQUARIE ISLAND IF YOU LIKE ANY SORT OF ADORABLE WILDLIFE WHATSOEVER)

Its probably just a happy concidence, but the name of that town (city?) its very close to "Utkantvik". Not a place in Norway, but "utkant" roughly translates to "Outskirts" or "rural", and "vik" is "bay", so this is more or less, "outskirts of civilization bay" :D
