A waterspout was spotted swirling off the coast of Montevideo, Uruguay.

The footage was captured this morning (April 6).

The filmer later wrote online: ''I have never seen something like this in my entire life.

''Waterspouts are not very common in Uruguay.''

A waterspout is an intense columnar vortex that occurs over a body of water.
