    Can confirm. Divers freak out, though I don’t understand why.

    But the orca is fake. 100% never been eaten by one.

    I don’t know why anyone would dive where Orca swim. Not because of the Orcas, but because the water is cold and the only thing to see is sea weed.

    “Orca whale” is a misnomer. Same with Killer whale. They are not whales. The nickname is a mistranslation of whale killer because Orcas kill whales.

        Orcas are actually moose. You see there are 2 sexes in the Meese family. The Male have legs and horns and truck around on land, the Women have flippers and swim around the ocean. Moose all have 1 thing in common, it’s a fetish for being eaten. The Orcas eat the Moose, consuming their sperm and it gets pushed out towards the egg prior to working it’s way out of the esophagus into to the stomach.

      I’m yet to see a convincing, authoritative historical source on the “whale killer” factoid. Follow the trail on asesina-ballenas and Basque fishermen and you get nowhere.
