  • They were just gonna show her were spongebob lives :)

  • @AlexKamakura Oh shut up! Curiosity can kill when its a wild animal vs a human. It doesnt matter what it was! You want to preserve these wonderful animals? Then we shouldn't dismiss their actions as curiosity, but make sure these stupid fucks like "Lisa" stay out of their fucking world! There is no fucking reason a human being should be in the middle of the ocean petting a fucking whale!

  • 4:19 Yea i don't the the whale is moving near her she is moving to the whale.

  • @kriton1986 You are exactly right. Eventhough this video is 2 or 3 years old, but whales are very beautiful animals. And there are trained people that are hired to go out to film these animals. But for individuals like you and me, we don't go out to film these animals. Eventhough whales are beautiful animals, but just like any animal, they can become very startled very easily.

  • what kinda fuckin name is "pilot whale" !!!

  • what a nightmare when the whale pulls her down.....

  • @AMSTRADAMSTRAD assuming that pilot whales and humans think and feel the same way you mean

  • yap get back to the kitchen

  • @UniscarGirl100 You study this animal? How, what kind of "studying" do you do? It would be incredibly difficult to understand your research logs with spelling and grammar like yours.
