Killer whales come a little too close for comfort to a diver and black lab
From the video description…
The free diver was on his way back in when he must have seen the Orcas and quickly got out onto the rocks. It seemed like there was at least 4 Orcas around him of which one was a mother with her calf.
The one Orca came very close to shore where the Labrador was busy retrieving sticks from the water. He saw the whale and quickly turned around and swam back to shore with the Orca following as far as he could go.

have these people never seen an orca come out of the water to get stuff? they are not out of harm’s way. the whales must have been more curious than hungry.
52 seconds: SWIM!!! SWIM FOR YOUR LIFE!!!!!
Dog: “Ohcrapohcrapohcrapohcrap!”
Please Abraham, can you please call them by their real name? They are called Orcas, not killer whales…
The orca probably thought that the dog was a seal….. good thing he didn’t get him, though!!! :)
