The best gift for a Son. instead of go to the zoo, where animals sufferring. Nice place, nice video. take care and help to preseve this beautiful animal.
@MidnightRain373 well you'd be absolutely right if they were extremely territorial animals I'm no specialist but I do know if an orca were to ever feel "annoyed" it would simply leave, plus if they feel like they need to take action they would slap their back fin at you and trust me that's a HUGE rarity around people. This particular whale was actually trying to get their attention for the fun of it!
An Amazing Day! Why we LOVE where we live! So fun to hear "Daddy" laughing more than the kids, I just had to add this video to, both, my "Puget Sound, etc" and my "Underwater Music Festival" Playlists!
The 'Largest Watercraft Concert' in the Pacific NW, UNDERWATER MUSIC FESTIVAL is held on the inner waters of south Puget Sound, near the region and town of Gig Harbor, Kopachuck State Park & Raft Island, WA - Live Music via Tug & Barge!

What an amazing video! I couldent even imagine how great of an experiance that must have been. Thanks for sharing! :)
Ps. To all the people making sick comments - grow up! What a great moment that was shared by a father and his son. It's really sad that people can say such disgusting stuff.
omg! i felt for the dad, when the whale was coming towards them! that whale could have overturned the boat and done much worse! but he only teased aaaawwww! seeing whales so close must have been exhilarating! i'm so jealous. please teach your son how whales(and dolphins) are so important to the oceans and how they are being abused by marine parks.
The whale looked a little mad. XD Maybe that was his way of letting you know he didn't like you in his territory. Looked like he was trying to scare you off, the repeated slapping of the his fluke and then his pectoral fin when he was right next to you. Still, great footage! I'd love to see wild Orca's up close.
First of all, I want to make it clear that the father and son in this video were fishing with the motor on their small fishing boat stalled. The Orca approached them! As for the "gay" comments they are rude and phobic. This devoted husband and father is not gay but if he were, so what? Yes, he was scared, also, along with being overwhelmed with the joy of the moment thus the joyful laughter.
what a show off! lol! seriously, I'd be scared as hell if I was with my kid and saw them, as I'm rather ignorant to what they're capable of or their behavior. beautiful nonetheless
~~ If an Orca chooses to play with the other mammals, so be it; in Gratitude, in Peace, with Love & Compassion~~ BTW, they, like the Manatees here, in Florida do not understand the dangers of the blades on the motors that slash into their flesh~~
Wow you are sooo lucky! There is no better evidence to say that orca had a connection with you guys! Swimming towards you and playfully splashed you at the right time! This is why the orca is my all time favorite animal. such intelligence in everything they do. These whale's even have their own personalities, advanced hunting tequniques and yet know how to socialize with other creatures of a different kind in a friendly way. No intent of harming anyone. It's a shame they are so fragile now :(
beautiful wild orcas, probably the 3 transients who have been seen lately here in the salish sea. free to swim, free from captivity, free to explore and hang out and eat when they want, without doing tricks for their treats. some say they swim upside-down to get an additional look from another perspective of these interesting humans in their boat.
They behave like SeaWorld orcas! How cute they are! What are they excited for????? Look at their underwater acrobatics! Such naughty ones…swimming upside down..
@TamilianPonnu What an insane comment!! Seaworld orcas ARE orcas, they are just in prison, that is the only diference. Wild whales do what they do for fun, captive ones do what they do because they are forced.
The beauty is, we dont know what excited them, or why they came to the boat and splashed the boat at the correct time, they just did. Only they know ...
@wolfcruise, Excuse Mr./Mrs Sane WolfCruise, whoever you are.... I am completely aware that Orcas in SeaWorld are living in matriarchal pods. You don’t have to tell me that. I don’t think I was born yesterday for you to tell me this. I ain’t naïve! I am highly aware and FYI, I have joined the campaign for Lolita's release! I am an animal rights activist and I am highly concerned of Seaquarium’s like Miami Seaquarium.
@TamilianPonnu Ha ha - ok ok ... but the way you wrote it sounded like a niave ' I think all orcas are from captivity' idiot. The fact that you think they behave like seaworld orcas is just laughable. I have seen orcas 500+ times in the wild, so I just thought your comment was highly ridiculous - what's 'naughty' about swimming upside down ?!! strange ....
@TamilianPonnu Oh jeese ... listen to this one .... no idea what YT or IGGY means .. must be some Seaworld lingo ... you keep to what you know, and I'll keep to what I do ... seaworld matriarcial pods - ha - do u realise that most of these animals are thrown together from Japan, Iceland and elsewhere ... hardly a mat' pod ....
That looks like Cutt's Island (Dead Man's Island)... Trying to figure out if this is in Henderson Bay... When was this????? Was it recent??? Because I can almost see my house when the camera pans around... and I would LOVE to know if there have been Orcas in the neighborhood!!! Please post location and date! Thanks for sharing such a great video!!!
Thank you for your concern. They were well beyond the distance limits and are very aware as not to disturb these beloved mamals. The funny thing is the whales were pursuing them!!
I posted this to show how precious these wonderful animal are.
I think Evil was being sarcastic, he/she knows you were shut down and the animals came over. its just another one of those great encounters that some groups think is harmful to the animals. it clearly is not harmful ...
THIS VIDEO WAS SHOT BY MY SON, JAMES, WHO WAS IN HIS SMALL FISHING BOAT WITH HIS FIVE YEAR OLD, SON, ALEX, IN SOUTH PUGET SOUND IN WASHINGTON STATE, USA
