@marsmick I'm not going to sit here and deny that the killer whales are HUGE money makers for SeaWorld, making up at least 75% of their annual income. However, that doesn't discredit SeaWorld's efforts to educate the public about these animals and conservation. Most captive whales were born in those tanks; they know no different. Captivity isn't stopping, so I think we all need to appreciate SeaWorld's efforts in trying to make things better. Not just for whales but for all marine life.
@lkwhostalkinggx3 Im sorry but I strongly disagree. Sea world does not care about Orcas or Dolphins at all. They only care about their share holders. Profits and profits is what drives Sea World to hold so many dolphins and Orca's captive. Its cruel. And btw, most of them are born in the wild and brought into Sea World. Only a VERY FEW are born into captivity. ALL dolphins and orcas in captivity only live about half the normal life span compared to dolphins in the wild. Captivity is torture..
@BomaBoi actually, in recent history, most (I'm not saying all) captive orcas were born in those tanks. with the success of breeding in captivity, there is no need to seek to the wild oceans any longer. I'm not here to say I one hundred and ten percent agree with captivity, and I am well aware of the life span decrease that these animals face, but as I've said before, captivity isn't stopping. these animals have some of the best trainers, some of the best killer whale people in the world
@BomaBoi working with them everyday. there is no finer marine mammal facility than that one right there in central Flordia. those people commit their lives (and readily risk it on a daily basis) to these animals. I don't see how people can say they don't give two shits about the animals. they love what they do. and they love those whales.
@lkwhostalkinggx3 Orcas were mainly captured from the ocean until the late 80s early 90s where they started to be born into captivity. Still yet, they only live half as long. Animal captivity is just cruel and wrong.. Especially for dolphins.. They are being tortured every single day.. Just because you feed your prisoner does NOT make you a virtuous captor..
whales like to play just like any other animal, they aren't trying to kill when something like this happens... they just aren't aware of what they are doing and that they are causing harm. Now if a whale were to eat a trainer, that is a totally different story lol
@Saucetin11 i really don't think you're giving these orcas enough credit. they are incredibly intelligent. by claiming their ignorance to another's pain in severely diluting the narrative. orcas don't ever eat trainers, they roll them, pin them to the floor.
I sometimes wonder if these whales are beaten into performing like circus elephants, especially when they are first learning the tricks and routines. Makes me sad, animals that can fight off sharks and prey on other whales reduced to parlor tricks for humans :(
i dont understand why people think its okay to keep swimming with "killer" whales like its in their names sure i am glad this man wasn't hurt and all but what does everyone expect trying to train a wild animal, if it out weights you dont swim with it!!!!!!!!!
FUCKING idiots at Sea World...they get what they deserve if they capture and then mess with an animal that doesn't want to be there or do that. Hahahahahah....unsavoury but necessary, to open eyes
@AlbertoDeSagitario what is there to explain? the shows provide an up-close look at these animals and seek to educate the masses in a way no television program or whale-watching business could ever hope to accomplish. and it WORKS. look at all the arguing on this video alone. every single one of you can thank SeaWorld for opening your eyes one way or another.
How can you say a whale show educates more than a documentary or whale watching would? Seriously? Watching a couple of killer whales jumping around a pool isn't going to teach anyone anything. Why do we need to learn anything from these animals anyway? They don't owe us nothing. Why, as a race do we have to know and control everything? Why not just leave everyone and everything where it is meant to be and just leave them to it?
@xTheCranberriesx 95% of captive whales were BORN in captivity - those tanks are all they know. I am not ignorant to the fact that these animals are HUGE money makers for SeaWorld. but that doesn't change the fact that captivity is happening and it's not stopping any time soon. soon. I think it's important to appreciate SeaWorld's effort to educate the public about these magnificent creatures and to give us an up close and personal view of an animal we would never otherwise have the chance to.
@lkwhostalkinggx3 Yes, seeing a damaged, lonely, neurotic whale gives us a chance to really appreciate these animals as a species. I'm sure I would represent humans really well if I was locked in a cage for my formative years without a family as long as I was visited by a really good psychologist once in awhile.
@riseredeos most (a good 98%) of captive whales were born and raised in those tanks. those tanks are all that they know. and no, captivity is not ideal but it's not going to change any time in the foreseeable future. so I think we all should appreciate SeaWorld's efforts to give these animals the best life they possibly can. because these animals deserve nothing less.

@lkwhostalkinggx3 Urm yeah they don't conserve shit, they just breed these animals over and over then split up mothers and calves at a ridiculously early age, none of these animals are introduced into the wild, they just do it for the money. As for education, all we have learnt from keeping killer whales in captivity is that it shouldn't be happening,
0:14 The whale pulls the swimmer down and the team goes into quiet panic mode, getting the whales to come up for munchies while the grabbed guy resurfaces on the far left side and is discreetly taken to the back.
i dont see why people are feeling bad. they look like their having a great time they get fed constantly and have plenty of space to roam. so to me their living the life. its the zoos that have the lions in a cage and shit like that that sucks dick for the animals. but these whales are living it up
why would they not feed the whales fish afterwards... wht will they do starve them send them to bed with no supper, because they only done what they would do in the wild!!! and the audience prob had little reaction cos they didnt know what was happening
I know the correct thing to do is to post something rude and put a thumbs down, but I really like going to Sea World and watch the animals perform. I don't really care about animal rights... does that make me a bad person?
Hmmm, it's good that the other trainers' response time was good, I wonder if the other trainers reacted the same way for Dawn Brancheau, maybe she would have lived? But who knows, we can't predict what wild animals are thinking anyways >O<" Captivity or not, it's passed throughout their genes, "killer" instincts. They do have a reputation for playing with their food afterall. =X I love orcas, but I prefer watching them on TV in their natural habitat.
Poor Orca, the bold arsehole yells at him/her because grabs the other arsehole foot. (S)he's just try to being left alone and have some quite.
I wonder what the hell is that yellow device that the bitch is holding and that throw it when the almost drawn moron appear? I guess must be some kind of teaser. And the bold one is yelling at the orca, and suddenly he realize he's in the middle of a show and goes to grab the bucket with fish.
@WildlifeCrusader Its not a taser, it's a sound device, it mimics a whale call so that the whales come to the surface if they're not responding to the splashing (which is a signal the trainers use). Don't assume so rudely of people, people don't become animal trainers because they hate the animals, they become trainers because they love animals.
@agirlonminecraft yeah I know, it's just that I don't think animals should be used for entertainment, and since they're already in captivity it obviously helps that they have trainers that love them but I still think it's wrong tho.
@gmecomber yea with you on this... whales may not be dogs but we all learn when we are doing good by rewards!! I know they were trying to keep there attention while he got out but i don't know if i would have "rewarded" them in the act..
@KirstenS662 if you look at the beginning of the video, theres a dude in the water on the right side of the screen. He starts swimming and then all of sudden he's not there anymore.
I truly believe he [the trainer] deserved MUCH worse than a mild foot injury and swallowing too much water. The trainer(s) understand the inherent risks involved with working with animals. To make animals perform for our amusement is SO 18th century. When the f**k are we going to put this kind of show in our past? How many trainers must die before the shows are finally banned? How much torture and/or cruelty must these mammals put up with before they simply lose their minds? How sad...
@iBike2Live Oh Boo fuck'n Whoo Son they are fucking Animal's get it? put here for man's pleasure and amusement. foodsource etc. We're on top of the food chain get it? Not they or they'd be running the show, in control of the world. You fucking You fucking Evolutard's needs to get a grip and stop crying
They're still wild animals, and they probably thought they were playing. The trainers also know that the more they flail and act scared, the more the whales will pull.
Thank God the trainer was okay here, and I'm glad the whales were not reprimanded.
Sometimes it scares me how uneducated people are about animals in captivity. They are sentient beings, they think, they feel, they are individuals with own personalities. No wonder things like this happens.
@BomaBoi plants are sentient? ... okay. I'm not really following you here but sure. And uh, cool about you caring for whales because they are indeed wonderful, but don't... I mean, just... just don't.
@marsmick ... You know its annoying when people tell you stuff you know right?? It would be like if I were to bitch to you about the cruelty of animal captivity. Dolphins live for only half as long in captivity, they develop horrible ulcers. They try to commit suicide.. They get pissed off and kill the trainer some times. Isn't it irritating when people try to preach stuff to you that you already know? BTW Orca is the greatest predator.. Dolphins fuck and gang rape for fun. They are also gay =D
This is actually a pretty scary incident, when you pay attention closely. You can see how frightened the trainers are. They start slapping the water to bring the Orcas up, because the fourth trainer is being held under and drowning.
@CRAZYbananasFLY the whale grabbed that trainer that jumped off the whale at 0:02 on the right and dragged him under. he popped up at the bottom of the screen at 0:40. they distracted the whales with bait so he could swim back...then he limped off the stage. it probably broke his leg when it grabbed him
@stazicobi or what ever your name is you deff are a girl about everything I can tell he never said killing them was an option just that if you let them go they would die of natural causes you do know what that is right that means they can't find food cuz all they know if people feeding it to them they would starve or some other shit would happen point is no one wins with your stupid "dialog" cynical ass it's a argument and not a debate at all and a stupid argument you can't win against a woman
if killing or abusing animals makes one a "man" you know the hunting type... foot on top of the torso... than calling me a person with a "girl attitude" is acceptable. the reason why they might not be able to find food is because people like you enjoy whale shows too much the splashing, jumping, kissing the trainer etc. when it comes to whales why don't you give them a choice? freedom or kissing trainers. my name is staszek and not what ever, one is my name the other is not.
@staszekgobi Do you think he personally is responsible for catching these whales and keeping them in captivity??? Idiot... He's doing his fucking job to make a living and in all probability he loves these creatures and does as much to care for them as he possibly can. I hope SATAN devours your soul after you die in a horribly bloody work related accident you douche slice.
you forgot to add at the end: god bless you, you bible thumbers always add those words yet you forgot to do that, bad boy... do i think that he is personally responsible for catching whales? no, is he contributing to the problem hell yes! in british colombia canada they used to cut trees to a point where there were more cut then standing up and the justifification was: they were doing their job to make a living,when do you stop? when there is nothing left?
I want to know what that yellow remote is on the cord that the guy grabs and the woman later picks up.. I have seen them grab that on other videos but only when there is a problem with the whales...
I wonder if it is some sound call button that the whales can hear... or is it an electric zap? jk.. lol
There is no other reason other than GREED for why this park and any other like it is still open. They can BS all they want about bringing the beauty of the ocean to ppl - whatever. Training a WILD animal to do tricks for money is wrong. I refuse to ever go to Seaworld, they are destroying our oceans. They are not preserving them.
If those Whales didn't want to do this they would simply leave, they could swim away any time they want, they can swim faster than any boat. They stay for the fish they're given by the trainer, it's a lot harder to catch these fishes in the sea.
@ronbronb ha ha ha. are you actually serious? oh right all they do is call the little tourist shuttle bus and tell them to drop them off at the nearest port. lol
it is entierly not fair to these marvolous creatures to be held in captivity for our amusment . you could tell the whale was not in a good mood so why mess with it . that is why people get hurt
@mustbebored21 It's not to reward them, but to distract them, to ensure that the trainer could get out the pool safely.
The problem is, is that it's not that easy to release a captive whale. If that whale has been doing this all it's life, it does not know how to fend itself against other whales or hunt for it's food. True, the instincts remain, but it's all in a controlled environment. U put a captive whale back into the wild, u're basically condemning it to death, & endangering the public.
@MCisthebestbyfar i no but the whale may make the connection to the 'treats' and what he has just done. I no releasing them isnt the answer although it sort of worked in Keiko's case, but we just have to stop any new ones bein held captive.
What do you expect when you put these beautiful highly intelligent animals into a swimming pool and make them do stupid tricks for your own entertainment. This should be classed as cruelty, they should be out in the ocean. If you want to see them, go and see them there. Fuck sea parks that keep whales and dolphins.
I swam with dolphins in Cuba when I was a kid. Since then I watched the documentary The Cove. I would suggest everyone watch it before going swiming with dolphins in captivity, it really does open your eyes to the horrid jurney they make from open ocean to there tank. Theres a good chance that these dolphins watched there brothers, sisters and babies slaughtered side by side. For me its a no brainer. I challenge anyone to watch it and still be enthrilled to see them in this way.
@benjajammin113 orcas are in the dolphin family not in the whale family. to me its the all the same principle, dolphins, sea lions, they have 4 whale sharks in a tank somewhere in a central U.S state to, that can't be good really. Orcas may be caught in a different way to the taiji dolphins, but it should still be out in the open ocean. To be honest I just wanted to post this on a few different sea world clips so that some people might become enlightened. :)
For those who are saying the animals are in the wrong, maybe you should watch The Cove?? I know it's about dolphins, but there's bits about how disgusting Sea World really is C:
If they ever kill this fish, I'd like to fry it up and make a sandwich with a slice of onion, on rye bread of course. Have you ever been to Beardslys in Grafton, IL?
i guess it's the same incident happened in Florida. Bad thing is, the trainer didn't survive and die. the killer whale drew her underneath and drowned the trainer. I guess they should learn the lesson that killer whales are Wild. and should be in the ocean not on a show.
For people who love whales and dolphins. Please consider visiting the Sea Shepard website and supporting them.
They actually save the lives of ocean wildlife. They recently released 600 endangered blue fin tuna off the coast of libya. The tuna had been captured and enclosed illegally. Ready for slaughter to begin.
They do amazing work and actually save the lives of animals butchered and exploited by human beings. Sea Shepard.
In an awful macabre kind of way - this incident is slightly amusing. Simply because of the arrogance of the "trainers" thinking these beings would be happy and fulfilled listening to aggressively orchestrated music in what is essentially a prison.
He's lucky he escaped with his life.
I actually don't blame the whale for having resentment towards its captors.
I love my cat but I know he has a wild side - he would probably kill me if he were bigger. It wouldn't be the cat's fault.
@TheInferno515 Well let me ask you, does it compare to, oh i don't know... the fucking OCEAN!! So if i throw you in a 'very very deep' box with a couple of friends and make you do tricks for food, that's not cruel? Open your eyes you moron!
@chrisshakur313 its not that big of a deal. u people act like they get tortured. if they were so cruelly treated, u would think they would behave in a different way. but no they cooperate just fine and do what they are taught to do. so here is the deal hippie: how bout u stop bitching at me, get off your ass and do something about it even tho nobody will listen to u complain. but even more importantly how bout u get off my ass before i put my foot in yours
@TheInferno515 hahahaha!! They cooperate just fine? Did you not see the video, or are u that blind? There have been over 100 incidents like the one above. Do you think that was a love nibble? Tilikum has killed people, Keto has killed a person, and like I said, there have been over 100 aggressive incidents. Also, if you want proof that these animals dont belong in captivity read the paper on hsi.org written by Naomi Rose on captivity
in fact i think the pool is too big, and too much water also i think that the trainers should have those cow prods just for good measure. the trainers feed the whales too much that's why they get so big. what we should do is kill all the whales in the wild and then we will have more money from the shows like they do in kaiji japan. kill them all! cnn will say that all whales are fine and no one will ever know...
@DaGOAT2006 just because they have become incapable of fending for themselves in the wild does not mean that they enjoy being worked to death in a tiny pool.
@staszekgobi free fish i dont have to catch, fresh sea water all the time, and enjoying the tricks i do? easy pick. tell you what. if you have a dog take him and put him outside and give him the choice...they were once wild wolves and now all they do is cry to come back in...think about it
thought about it and you know what? i can't help you. you are comparing a domesticated animal to orca! what is wrong with you! long ago we lived in caves killing anything that was there to be killed. now we no longer live in caves and we no longer kill everything you know why? it's called progress. what would happen if all the whales in all the parks around the world attacked "their" trainers? then would they let them go? open the fence to the ocean and lets see where they go.
@staszekgobi honestly im down for that. they didnt catch these animals in the wild. they are tame...it wont happen but if they did let them go i would bet they would come back like anyother tame animal. i dont you dont agree but its ok...its the internet and im glad to have someone reply to me without calling names. ty
with your antiquated way of thinking i can see why some people may call you names. it is a well known fact that dolphins and whales saved people from danger, so if a whale or a dolphin saved your child would you go and kill that whale or dolphin the next day?
@staszekgobi and you have just made youself lose credit...when did i ever talk about animals saving my children and or going out and killing them...moving on. take it easy
since this was supose to be a dialog you are not the only one that gets to make an observation ok? the example of children was my way of making you see what my point was not what you said or what you didn't. if you can't win an debate then abdicate it's not like i will miss having a dialog with a person that is hellbend on winning at whatever cost. what is it that you are trying to win? or affraid of loosing? loosing credit with you is the least of my problem, oh boy...
and when they die be sure to bring your camera so you can document the event, i am sure there is money in it somewhere... better yet organize a hunting party (good money in it) and BEFORE they die nice folks will get to shoot them and no worries there is no law against that.
@Torkgasmicgirl8 I agree, theyre way too big and its against their nature that they stay in one tank for the rest of their lives and perform. They're beautiful and smart animals but they are deadly preditors and should be in the wild
@marsmick I'm not going to sit here and deny that the killer whales are HUGE money makers for SeaWorld, making up at least 75% of their annual income.

Hmmm, it's good that the other trainers' response time was good, I wonder if the other trainers reacted the same way for Dawn Brancheau, maybe she would have lived? But who knows, we can't predict what wild animals are thinking anyways >O<" Captivity or not, it's passed throughout their genes, "killer" instincts. They do have a reputation for playing with their food afterall. =X I love orcas, but I prefer watching them on TV in their natural habitat.

Poor Orca, the bold arsehole yells at him/her because grabs the other arsehole foot. (S)he's just try to being left alone and have some quite.
I wonder what the hell is that yellow device that the bitch is holding and that throw it when the almost drawn moron appear? I guess must be some kind of teaser. And the bold one is yelling at the orca, and suddenly he realize he's in the middle of a show and goes to grab the bucket with fish.
WildlifeCrusader 2 months ago
@WildlifeCrusader Its not a taser, it's a sound device, it mimics a whale call so that the whales come to the surface if they're not responding to the splashing (which is a signal the trainers use). Don't assume so rudely of people, people don't become animal trainers because they hate the animals, they become trainers because they love animals.

I truly believe he [the trainer] deserved MUCH worse than a mild foot injury and swallowing too much water. The trainer(s) understand the inherent risks involved with working with animals. To make animals perform for our amusement is SO 18th century. When the f**k are we going to put this kind of show in our past? How many trainers must die before the shows are finally banned? How much torture and/or cruelty must these mammals put up with before they simply lose their minds? How sad...

They're still wild animals, and they probably thought they were playing. The trainers also know that the more they flail and act scared, the more the whales will pull.

mustbebored21 5 months ago
@mustbebored21 It's not to reward them, but to distract them, to ensure that the trainer could get out the pool safely.
The problem is, is that it's not that easy to release a captive whale. If that whale has been doing this all it's life, it does not know how to fend itself against other whales or hunt for it's food. True, the instincts remain, but it's all in a controlled environment. U put a captive whale back into the wild, u're basically condemning it to death, & endangering the public.

What do you expect when you put these beautiful highly intelligent animals into a swimming pool and make them do stupid tricks for your own entertainment.

I swam with dolphins in Cuba when I was a kid. Since then I watched the documentary The Cove. I would suggest everyone watch it before going swiming with dolphins in captivity, it really does open your eyes to the horrid jurney they make from open ocean to there tank. Theres a good chance that these dolphins watched there brothers, sisters and babies slaughtered side by side. For me its a no brainer. I challenge anyone to watch it and still be enthrilled to see them in this way.

Orcas may be caught in a different way to the taiji dolphins, but it should still be out in the open ocean. To be honest I just wanted to post this on a few different sea world clips so that some people might become enlightened. :)

For people who love whales and dolphins. Please consider visiting the Sea Shepard website and supporting them.
They actually save the lives of ocean wildlife. They recently released 600 endangered blue fin tuna off the coast of libya. The tuna had been captured and enclosed illegally. Ready for slaughter to begin.
They do amazing work and actually save the lives of animals butchered and exploited by human beings. Sea Shepard.

In an awful macabre kind of way - this incident is slightly amusing. Simply because of the arrogance of the "trainers" thinking these beings would be happy and fulfilled listening to aggressively orchestrated music in what is essentially a prison.
He's lucky he escaped with his life.
I actually don't blame the whale for having resentment towards its captors.
I love my cat but I know he has a wild side - he would probably kill me if he were bigger. It wouldn't be the cat's fault.
