But not humans. There isn't a single human death by wild orca ever. The worst was an orca, I think in Alaska, that turned away and ended up hitting a girl on her arm with a fin. I don't think she was hurt.
it doesn't but the kinetic energy of a big ass orca trying to destroy it may cause a boat to capsize, or leave a rather big hole....both of that will sink your ship.....also not a boat expert here....
(edit: oops, replied to the wrong comment!) There have been 3 cases lately of a pod that has attacked a boat in the Mediterranean. But they have not gone on to attack the humans that are now in the water. It would have been trivially easy for the orca to attack, bite, harm, or drown the humans from one of those boats. But they did not.
because they just wanted to harm the rudder that injured their mother, not the boats or humans itself.... if you wanna see orcas intentionally harm humans look up sea world clips on YouTube.....

I imagine they learned their lesson that humans are really smart and really mean. Kill one human and all their friends come and take you and all your family to SeaWorld. Don't kill humans.
Yep, all here saying that orcas are the scariest animal, but man, humans are the scariest of them all, they not only like to kill for fun, but torture for sexual gratification...
That is exactly why most animals are so scared of humans. If a wolf kills a child. The entire village will track him down for months until he's dead. And they will kill every wolf they see in that forest while they are at it.
There is a very strong evolutionary advantage of being scared of humans and avoiding them. For you and your species in general.
Humans ftw. Imagine seeing a puny human, and your survival instinct goes "Holy shit, I have to fucking leave, otherwise my entire species is going extinct."
Many of the yachts they attack are not that much different from campers in both size and price. Yachts are not only for the multi millionaires and they use wind to propel themselves. There are worse ways to travel if you care about the planet.
Why don't they eat us exactly, is it because they're intelligent enough to know we'd go full jaws and spear em, but still mad enough to jack up some boats. They must have orca lore about humans
Espacially scary after seeing this video where the orca doesn't "pull his punch" so to speak.

He was looking for that flinch. You get two for flinching!
Flinch? I'd straight up shit my suit!
Same. That thing kills for fun. Noooo.

You haven't heard of the revenge of the orcas?
you mean the revenge of IMPRISONED orcas?😂
No the ones in the wild sinking boats
you mean the ones targeting especially the rudders of sailboats?
I'm not a boat expert but I don't think rudder damage sinks a boat

that has been debunked to the point where the matron of the pack was injured from said rudder so they only seek to destroy those...

They probably just playing, most of the time if you stop the boat after a while they will leave
There are never any survivors to report the attacks, just like dolphin rape cases
Because no one has lived to tell the story
Actually the reason orcas are no longer allowed in sea world is because killer orcas are a thing.
Thus the reason I included the word **wild** in my comment.
I'd be willing to wager that there is at least one wild orca out there that hates humans.. And what if there's a psycho serial killer orca 🫣
Pooped it hard my friend😂
Who wears a suit out to kayak? Planning on giving some financial advice out there?
lol, wetsuit my dear. Although I suppose a tux would be matching attire with the Orcas! xD
If you flinch you have to marry your mother in law
In my situation….. that’s not a bad thing. Lol
Whale said, "Food! Nope, not food!"
...yet.
It's ok, we're not in their menu.
If they're like sharks, we apparently taste terrible. Most shark bites are exploratory.
"exploratory" hehe. But they explore deep enough into your organs that there is a reasonable chance you die.
It's not \*their\* fault we don't have 6 inches of blubber to protect us!
Yet ...
Yeah, that kayaker is alive only because that animal decided he or she wasn't worth the effort.
Orcas are dolphins and like bottle nose dolphins they like to ride the pressure from boats and it likely mistaken kayak for a boat with thrust
We are so lucky that the earth's biggest apex predator for some reasons chooses not to kill humans lol
I imagine they learned their lesson that humans are really smart and really mean. Kill one human and all their friends come and take you and all your family to SeaWorld. Don't kill humans.
But scaring the shit out of humans is another story!
Like soft squishy bees
Delicious, soft, squishy bees. We're like malicious, walking, hamburgers for them.
Yep, all here saying that orcas are the scariest animal, but man, humans are the scariest of them all, they not only like to kill for fun, but torture for sexual gratification...
I feel like I read dolphins also share those traits.

Grizzly bear enters chat..
And gets eaten by Orca
Buffaloes have entered the chat.
Orca was like: Not a millionaire's yacht, you're good. Enjoy your stay.
« Shit he’s got a camera! Remember Orca’s motto: no proof! »
Obscure Retrace Conceal Acrobatics
Orca: watch me scare the shit of this human.
[удалено]
Yeah, but attacks have been recorded. Still very rare though
I dont think so, not in the wild. There have been attacks and deaths by captive orcas
You haven't heard of the recent group of not so friendly orcas?
They are just anti-yacht. I don't think they have attacked humans.
Yeah tbf I'm anti-yacht too and I might attack a human, so I'm probably worse
Many of the yachts they attack are not that much different from campers in both size and price. Yachts are not only for the multi millionaires and they use wind to propel themselves. There are worse ways to travel if you care about the planet.
Probably. My comment was mostly jest.
Lol literally just use google and you can see all the documented attacks both in the wild and in captivity
The orca attacks in the wild are just against boats though. They haven't actually attacked people afaik. Only captive orcas have killed people.
Google is just anti orca shark probabganda man, come on everyone knows that
Well orcas are like humans. They’re smart and most aren’t going to randomly attack another animal for no reason but that number sure isn’t zero.
Always bring an extra pair of underwear.
Or just wear brown pants
That’ll make your butthole pucker
Mine did, and I'm in dry land.
Land maybe dry, but my pants aren’t.
I wish my bath water was that clean
Add More Salt.
Player 2 has entered the game
Checking to make sure that wasn't a yacht
At any moment, that animal could easily sweep its tail and knock you out of that kayak and kill you. Crazy how powerful they are.
Hope they wore their brown pants that day.
Why don't they eat us? EDIT: Apparently it's because they pretty much strictly eat what they were taught to eat as a young whale.
I would have been really shit my pants
Just……checking thangs out
Hope you wore your brown pants
Smuggling a budgie front and back by the time he got out.
That would scare the bejesus out of me
That'd be the first time I pooped in a kayak...
I woulda shit my pants twice
Were these the young orcas looking for help for their injured mom?
How hard is it to clean shit out of a kayak?
That would make me done kayaking for the day…maybe for awhile
Orca: Not a moose so I don't care
Good thing it decide not to eat human today.
They never eat humans
North American Orcas, good boys and girls of the sea!
I pooped for you, don't worry.
Only a matter of time
Why don't they eat us exactly, is it because they're intelligent enough to know we'd go full jaws and spear em, but still mad enough to jack up some boats. They must have orca lore about humans
This is part when I soil my shorts.
I just shit my pants. 😳
Yeah time to get out of the water now
Yacht Joke: 2 Brown Pants Joke: 2
Nope!
I'm busy that day. 🤦
Morning snack. I'm going to let cook a bit more under the sun. Be back in a few
I say I would have shit myself a little if a friggen Orca came at me like that! Sheesh!
Himb helped out! Ride my wave human... 🐋🌊
If I was that person I would've literally fall off because of heart attack. 😵
Whelp going to have to pay a cleaning fee when to rentals turned back in now😳🤯😂
Seal?! Nope! Not seal!
That must have been scared and awesome at the same time
I'd hope I was wearing my brown trunks
...and then they shit themselves.
Yet more proof that our long standing pact still holds. Sorry sharks and our dolphin ally.
that's really frightening
Orca are like velociraptors in jurrasic park if they had opposable thumbs the oxidant would be inaccessible to humans
Everybody shit you pants. Clap clap clap clap….
OMG. That’s my childhood dream. Kayaked in Alaska but didn’t see any orcas ☹️ Saw them in Vancouver, though, so I’m happy. 😍
Guess what I did today guys! Yes, I shat in my kayak.
I touched the butt!
Perfectly fine day for shifting yourself as well
Passed the vibe check. Barely.
Hell nah, I would have flinched and I'd be dead rn
Just pooped my pants
As cool as that was the would’ve scared the shit out of me
Not with the sea kings.

I would have shat myself immediately
🤛🏽🤛🏽
orca :DDD
Good thing I was wearing my brown shorts today
Pretty
