Shamu Rocks! (Full Show) SeaWorld San Diego

[DrVegasIII]

If I was a whale at SeaWorld and had to deal with this shit I'd snack on the "trainers" as if they were chicken nuggets !!!

[nooloo3000]

im pretty sure your cant force something that big ot do a trick

[LITTLEliar1]

the song at the start is called we will rock you and its by Queen i think :)

[Biffanator22]

No what song is it

[Biffanator22]

what was the song in the very begining of the show 

[subscribe7heblindman]

@Biffanator22 Are you Kiddin' me?

[KingsProduction50]

they destroyed shamu stadium !

[mickeyfan5534]

Was something wrond with the screens that night.

[ShamuTrainerG]

Can I use this footage? I'll credit you :)

[CartoonsRocks]

In the Japanese part of the show

[CartoonsRocks]

The first time I came to that show in SD(the first one),The trainer was riding and dancing with Shamu! =)

[CartoonsRocks]

Beautiful SD

[JessiVermisstUlisse]

Great! I really like this show!

Can I use some footage of this for a video please?

[SSCUltimateWoman]

I saw this show in San Antonio...cool show except for the part when they play Mexican music...hello!!! Shamu ROCKS?!?! Anyway...good video!

[BlueRowan]

i just realised why the set looks strange, its cos ITS NOT THERE!

[polar33]

Fantastic videos! It's a shame that Shamu Stadium was in it's transitional period between Believe and One Ocean when you recorded this. Any chance you'd be able to go back by the end of the summer to get the show in it's full glory?

[metridium]

All too often, behind the facade of conservation, education and 'family entertainment',

the grim reality of captivity consists of blaring piped 'muzak', demeaning tricks

performed by increasingly traumatised and sickly whales, along with a growing litany of

'accidents', illnesses, stillbirths and premature deaths. WDCS

[mickeyfan5534]

@metridium But imagine if they all were let go. They would die because they have no clue how to hunt for themselves. If your talking about The Cove, then bag on the Asian parks.

[metridium]

@mickeyfan5534 It's time for the IWC to stand up to the Display Industry... too long have they been catered to under the guise of education, conservation and research. The Killer Whale must be put on the IWC protected species list to prevent future captures, the breeding of captive Orca must cease to allow attrition, and the 1994 MMPA Amendments must be repealed.

[mickeyfan5534]

@metridium touche.

[KingsProduction50]

@metridium you stupid anti cap !

[SavitarTheSurfingGod]

AWESOME!!!!!!!!! Hope the San Antonio Sea Wolrd's is as good as this one was when we go see it at the end of June

[LadyWahine408]

Oh btw I love your camera! Very good quality and love all your videos except for all seaworld shows

[LadyWahine408]

How can people be happy and jump for joy over something like this??? I don't get it! These mamals are not made for entertainment.. THEY BELONG IN THE OCEAN!!!

[hermione20001]

@LadyWahine408 actually most of the animals were rescued from injury that would have killed them and can't be returned to the ocean because they wouldn't know how to survive anymore. The ones that aren't rescued are those that were born into captivity so they can't be released anyways. So Seaworld has to house them. And the tanks are HUGE. if you've ever seen an areal view of Seaworld you'd see that the majority of the park are the tanks which is why there are hardly any rides. They actually

[hermione20001]

@LadyWahine408 treat the animals good

[SavitarTheSurfingGod]

@LadyWahine408 Yes they do but not all can be these shows are part of there daily interaction. Whales get lots of exercise in the ocean sitting in a pool makes them get fat and unhealthy the show gives them some of the exercise they would get in the wild. They aren't forced to do anything you can't force something that big and that powerful to do anything just ask them nicely. I have seen several shows where the animals didn't want to work that day so they had to switch them out during the show.

[SavitarTheSurfingGod]

@LadyWahine408 Also the food they get for doing tricks is a small part of their daily diet the tricks are created and built on things they do in the wild. In the Wild they have to hunt for their food getting plenty of exercise jumping and rushing through the water. And they do jump in the wild. In the wild whales have large pods with many individuals in captivity they don't have as many that is why trainer interaction is integral they become pod members to the whales.

[SavitarTheSurfingGod]

@LadyWahine408 That helps keep them from becoming depressed. Whales aren't released not only because they are expensive animals but also because we don't know how to integrate them into the wild. Even Keiko the free willy whale that had such a movement to be released was not let out into the the wild not really. They tried and hoped that a whale pod would adopt him but that didn't happen he kept trying to fallow people which got him into trouble.

[SavitarTheSurfingGod]

@LadyWahine408 They had to start feeding him again as he lost weight because he didn't learn to hunt for himself sufficiently. He eventually beached himself and died of pneumonia. I don't think there has been an attempt to release a killer whale after that. These whales that were born in captivity and imprinted on humans just can't be released even if they learn how to hunt their friendliness towards humans make them prime targets for whalers.

[LadyWahine408]

It just makes me wonder if any of these sea animals being forced/trained to do something they probably don't want but must just in order to eat from each trick.. Are they happy?? Nobody knows. But my guess is HELL NO!! smh sad so sad :(

[BlueRowan]

they love that into the blue song from blue horizons dont they, it an awesome song though

[EGPicturesStudios]

I hope they don't replace Shamu Rocks with a new nightime Shamu show. I love this show so much!

[aviationfan6776]

What is the song in the very begining?

[LipSyncLover]

poor whale :( those tanks r nowhere near big enough to house a whale thats used to traveling the OCEANS....:/

[TeamLGiT1]

@LipSyncLover they use this for show im sure they have a much larger holding tank otherwise the whales would go mad and at some point they release the whales anyways

[Shamufan88]

Awesome video! You did great!

[brandonlamchops]

What type of camera(s) do you have and use? And when you're on rolllercoaster, how do you hold the camera without dropping it.

[sharpproductions]

@brandonlamchops Check out some of the equipment I use on my facebook page.

[kanyonshousecky2k]

when did u take this video???

[sharpproductions]

@kanyonshousecky2k April fools weekend.

[Jackalx22]

Awesome

[RollerCoaster107]

Incredible video! Well done!

[xxLeGiiT]

I love your videos,they bring back the good old memories :]

I subscribe ^.^

[Letsnotzumba]

i think this kind of exploitation and humiliation of orca whale's is wrong but if they enjoy what they do i guess its fine

[TheR3J]

Poor Shamu and his little babies ):

[BlackPearlGurl]

This reminds me of why I wanted to work at Sea World when

I was a kid. Beautiful video. <3

[dhernandsd]

I hate sea world and i live in san diego they support whale hunting just saying

[ogromeo714]

NICE LOVE IT

[Xenomorph237]

00:35 Down at the bottom and Center of the screen, How immature.

[ThemeParkPenguin]

@Xenomorph237 hows waving a whale toy immature?

[Xenomorph237]

@ThemeParkPenguin I find it funny how instead of throwing your fists into the air and cheering, that person express their joyfulness by shaking a stuffed animal in the sky. Shaking the toy like the toy was an actual real whale as if the whale was cheering and dancing for its kind. Its pretty funny.

[rajsaa]

Love watching it!

[superwiko]

The show looked great, just wondering though, the firework display seemed quite far away? Was it?

[tjfan48]

Looks like you missed out on some stuff that they left out. There was a guitar solo and with all the screens, it would have been better. Also looks like the tail is being fixed.How many cameras did you use for this show? Great job filming btw!!

[sharpproductions]

@tjfan48 3 Cameras. Thanks!



[sweetnessboy1]

@tjfan48 The whale tail and other parts of the set are getting replaced for One Ocean, the new shamu show.

[tjfan48]

@sweetnessboy1 Oh yeah you are right. I can't wait for the new show!

[narrox95]

Is this the 7th shamu alive in this park? or its another one ?

[Fantasmiceddie24]

its funny how they still do shows with the construction for the new show

[mikesmikeisscool]

@17:13 For the blue fireworks show.

"YEAH!"

[JoeyBanco]

Just watched the whole thing. It was incredible(: Felt like i was there!

[theblondegirly]

I must do this before I die :)

[coasterkid21]

Yay!
