A Man Among Orcas | Orca, Indian ocean | Wildlife documentary 

This comment is important

Delph Zouzou Because the documentary was specifically about the scientist's studies and interactions with the animals, not about filmography. In most documentaries you don't see all the people filming. I'm sure they're listed in the credits.

Must be a girl😍

@@kimnotloona Except that's not what happened. If the other person filming had also been a scientist doing research, and they _wanted_ to be on camera, I'm sure they would have been given camera time. That wasn't the case, so they were given recognition in the credits like every other documentary. No one is discounting their work just because their face wasn't shown. Documentaries are different than movies, TV shows, RU-vid videos, etc. People who film documentaries want their work to be recognized, not for themselves to be recognizable on the street. They may want both, but that's not why documentaries are made, and many photographers and cinematographers _don't_ like appearing on camera, that's why they work behind the scenes.

Specially when he's shots were way better than the shaky shitty shots our hero filmed lol

W1ll P0w3R they can be 23 feet so u know

Yeah iv been up close and personal with a few while shopping at walmart.ha ha.and i keep at a safe distance too.

northern elephant seals are a lot smaller than southern ones

@Sara Hunter You trolling or not I still need to say that if you think someone saying hell makes or doesn't make them a cool dude just shows how insecure and immature you really are. btw go to hell.

They are Walrus....

It’s completely asinine to think an apex mammal hunting predator wouldn’t give us a bite if it was hungry enough. Respect these animals and the threat they pose to us.

which time in the video?

@Dylan Hicks bro, they hunt great whites literally only for their liver. I don't think humans would be very nutritional for them..

@@Ghost-tw7xw If you put a hungry and desperate predator in a situation where a human is the only option for a meal it’s going to eat the human. Thinking they won’t because they “respect and understand us” is not showing the deference that nature deserves.

Only the polar bear sees humans as a source of prey among their other foods

Humans are best species on the planet, and most beautiful as well, what we acomplished in science, culture , architecture, exploration canot be matched by anything on this planet.

@cristina Banuelos are you trying to imply that we arent?

Legija we’re also destroying this planet but yay humans

Of course, you're one of the GOOD humans, right? Dumbass.

@@trivunkonjik7413 that's only a very small percentage of people, most of humans won't accomplish anything notable in their entire life.

Lol

Beautiful isn't it

The Pied Piper of Penguins! lol When my daughter was 5 we went to park with bread to feed the ducks and vicious ass geese. They follow us back and forth. Now let me tell you... my daughter is the animal lover.. me the animal feared! They were following us and we got surrounded! I told my daughter to " RUN" as I left her and jump on the nearest bench.. true story no lie. That was 32 years ago. Today I LOVE ANIMALS!!

It’s so beautiful

Get on a jet plane !!!!

Fucking legend

They move like 3 mph. I'm pretty sure he was safe

That is the bit that got me. Insane footage.

The size of those things in comparison to him were incredible!

Pretty sure everyone watching was rife with pure envy at that moment!

Would you rather see the orca die or the elephant seal

elephant seal is ugly, strange and misogynistic

@@Zampierre i get really sick looking at them i have to turn away when there showing them

@@jackieguccione94 i guess that i was the only... they are so weird, sometimes i close my eyeis to don't see them

@@Zampierre absolutely

I know! People say nature is cruel. It's humans like that who are the real evil!

Agreed. They really suffer. I read a book that a SeaWorld trainer wrote. He said the Orcas get sunburn, the pool water is to warm and they get rashes, they are given anti acids for stomach ulcers. They bang their head's against the cement in the pool. They chew on the cement out of boredom. They break their teeth. A few whales have killed themselves from banging their heads against the cement really hard. They with hold food so they perform. They breed the female Orcas to early. Babies are still born. Or they take their baby away. The mom cries for day's. It's so heartbreaking.

It's the lack of understanding by others that makes them end up in cages. Not your lack of understand of ignorant people.

@@Bella-ht5jb9he3z Sounds like the series, The Handmaid's Tale. seriously!

What I don't get is why do wild orcas hunt dolphins? And they wound them and play with them like cats with mice

"How human". The signature of humanity ranges from the best to the most cruel and bestial behavior.

Why do we attribute "human" to kindness? The other animal world is full of accounts of 'kindness". And why do we think everything is out to get us and when it shows that it isn't...wow!...what a human-like behaviour? Humanity has shown such incredible deliberate cruelty towards every other species - and including its own- that we should be also then surprised when we are kind. Humans are like all other critters....some good and some bad and it is us that makes that distinction based on our own perception of the world - which I am sure is very different from a snail or an orca.

Gerry S - According to Atheist cult Priest Richard Dawkins, "there is no purpose, no evil and no good, nothing but pointless indifference." So in 'honor' of "atheism", which is absurd and truthfully to mock the absurdity of the notion of a lack of belief, let's all kill the whales, shall we? No such thing as evil according to Atheist Priest dawkins, remember?

Real Estate Unplugged you are taking something out of context and bending it to make a point of your own here about religion. I doubt Dawkins would agree with your depiction of his position. But moreover, Religion has nothing to do with this here.

Raph Ael - I came here to see the whales but the big question sprung up ☝. Are you with the Atheist cult master, Richard Dawkins?

I remember a guy named Timothy who did the same with brown bears....

Bucket list, RIGHT!

Lol literally!!! I second that sir

yeah until a 6 ton heaping unit of absolute raw sexual aggression body slams you 6 feet under sand. those guy are huge.

And came within a few meters of Orcas.

38:33 He's not alone though they try to portray him as is. You did notice that he's being filmed by a moving panning camera. When does a "documentary" allow for acting, posing, fiction?

@@PaliAha What is fiction about filming the guy that's filming his subject? It just offers another first-person to third-person perspective- nothing more.

@@Optable , i got no problem w/the added perspective. Read the 1st poster's comment. He thinks this clown is doing things solo: "True dedication to the job" -- my ass.

@@PaliAha It made me laugh when the weather picks up and he says he needs to take shelter, and the cameraman was left outside filming him zipping up the tent. I call BS on him sleeping in that box too.

Luckily for him he wasnt in the path of a male elephant seal

how many 52 minutes videos have you watched?

Watch “300 days alone”. Instead of Orcas, it about human basic survival on a remote island. One of the best videos ive seen in a long time

Nothing to do with wildlife but still a great documentary “Super Size Me 2”!!! They have the original Super Size Me, but even without watching the first one I watch the 2nd one first out of Curiosity I watched the first one Super Size Me, but that just gave me a back ground to #1 and did not find it necessary or as enjoyable as Super Size Me 2.

exactly !!

Just imagine penguins being aggressive and come at you in packs that would be a nightmare.lmo

OR... the man in the yellow tent. 😂

I thought that as soon as I seen him sleeping next to them LOL then came down here to see if anyone else commented about it 🤣

That’s what exactly what I said when it was over lol

Smh

Featuring Orcas

I can't take it!

More like, he puts a script into it. He knew damn well the answer to that fake question. He really poured on the "aw shucks mister" vibe. Seems any normal person's first thought playing with the seal under water is "this is NOT safe for you buddy" and wouldn't have encouraged play time in a death trap area, knowing full well the young seal was a rookie to the dangers of the sea and the killers in that immediate area waiting for a meal. I would have been nervous for the seal and wouldn't have distracted the seal by playing in a dangerous area, but likely this 'super nice guy' was thinking if it gets eaten it'll make epic up close footage.

Just makes it shit in my opinion :)

@@ikigai47there’s literally no such thing as “fake” questions

@@ikigai47He didn’t intentionally distract the seal, the seal came to him and played with him not the other way around.

Not creatures pay attention!

Hope he gave it a good quick death

Yanano Bere who exactly are you talking about

@@dasit1965 You really had to ask..?? 😕🙇

@@romb4649 im also wondering

I met a commercial fisherman in Alaska and he really respected the orca's, even though they would steal his catch, etc. In his view nothing else in the sea measured up for size, power and intelligence. It was nice to meet a guy, who despite the economic challenges the orca's presented, still thought they were of such great value and should be looked after. When he talked about them, you could see the smile on his face and how he treasured the occasional interaction.

I consider Orcas the 2nd most intelligent lifeforms on this planet. 2nd only to us.

Dave Crupel there just as smart as us if not smarter

@@keithzacek7692 and i love that. :)

@@davecrupel2817 The second most intelligent life form on this planet is a dolphin. They have an estimated EQ of around 5.26. For comparison a human has an EQ of 6.56 to 7.28 or higher. The EQ of an orca is around 2.50 or 2.61. Dolphins are extremely intelligent and are some of the only few animals that display self-awareness. Orangutans Are very intelligent as well with an EQ of around 4.5. Chimpanzees are better than humans in some memory tasks. Goats have excellent long-term memory. Elephants can work together. Parrots can reproduce sounds of the human language. Dolphins can recognize themselves in the mirror. New Caledonian crows understand cause-and-effect relationships. Scrub jays plan for the future. There are many categories of intelligence. Many animals display different abilities of intelligence. Chimpanzees have a better memory than humans. I guess it all just depends on your interpretation of intelligence.

in human society even if serenata the word kids will do whatever they want

😂😂

In human society, even adults don't listen😂😂

that shade..

It’s an amazing documentary, but that’s actually not true! There is good documentation of orcas with childlike personalities that constants need to be corrected/saves up to a certain age lol

@@onyxblak-roses6957 I think the vid implied that with the Orcas going after it and eating it. It's nature it's not only tough in the human world but the same for all animals in the Animal Kingdom

@@Anonymous38572 it must be great to live such a privileged life that you want for nothing, with an over full belly, sat lazing around watching TV all day and night wrapped up in cotton wool

Lol ikr

Because they are a type of dolphin

they are cute until they follow u

Exaxtly, same with me. Such a magnificent movie

Also creepy making that cute sound when they are killing the seals.

It's not a "cute squeaky sound" its a highly sophisticated language that we can not under stand. We have researched the shit out of their language and have gotten nowhere. That "cute squeaky sound" is different from all other orca pods. Every orca pod has their own language and not one pod has the same language as another. Also the males never leave their mothers. Their whole lives they are no more than 10 ft from their mothers. If they get bullied by other male orcas. They'll stay on the outside of the pod. In which they'll eventually come back into it but pods never break or never fully kick out another orca. This is also why releasing them from captivity could have horrible results. They don't speak the same language as other pods so they wont be accepted in, only to their pod, which may be impossible to find

@@chakinfingerz947 Jeez way to turn an innocent comment into your little rant box. We're watching the docu, we already know this. Sit down and let some people comment on a squeaky noise that they enjoy.

@@icky7604 no where in my comment did I rant about something bad, or try to dismiss them from enjoying the sound. What someone tells you information of something and you're like, "No! Stop! I want to remain stupid!" fuck you and your negativity towards learning.

Orcas aint dangerous towards men

Bram Steenhoek of course they fucking are. If they’re hungry enough they will gobble your ass up like a goddamn snack. Just cause there aren’t any recorded attacks doesn’t mean that it never happened.

Eustace King With how much bullshit you're talking, you would make an excellent farm. There have been only 2 recorded orca attacks on humans in the wild and none were fatal. The ones that resulted in human deaths occurred in captivity. Are orcas physically capable of devouring a human? Yes Do they do it? No And here’s why: They know exactly what they are looking for, to eat; just as you may look at an apple tree, and choose to eat the apples and not the leaves of the tree. Around the world, there are Orcas that like to eat sharks. Others like to eat sting rays but not fish. Others like seals and fish, but not sharks. There are Orcas that eat almost exclusively whales; Gray Whales, Bowhead, Beluga, even the unicorn-horned Narwhal. None of them like humans, because they have not been taught that humans are food. Unlike other apex predators like lions and others, they do not go after anything and everything that moves. They have been taught what to eat, by others in the pod, by their parents, by their grandparents. Why did the word get around that humans are not food? It’s very possible that they would have trouble with our bones. Our long bones are longer and thicker than any other animal that they do entirely consume. They don’t have to get a bone stuck in their throat to understand that something with these long thin appendages might not go down easily. They can see we are alien looking, and things that aren’t fat and compact are not attractive… don’t look scrumptious. Obviously, they can’t swallow us whole. That would leave two options; crunching us up, which would create sharp bone splinters that would be dangerous in their throat… or, they could bite the meat from around our bones, as they do with prey such as walruses, or large whales. Clearly, we aren’t big enough, muscular enough, or blubbery enough to allow them to do that. So… the bottom line is… we are not on their menu. We don’t make a good meal, and in fact, trying to eat us may be dangerous if they try to chew us up. At Thanksgiving Dinner, we don’t just eat an entire turkey… it has bones that would harm us if we did that. We cut the meat off. Orcas don’t chew us up, for the same reason. And they can’t cut (bite) the meat off. So, once again… we are not on their menu.

@@orcawithdrip827 I think they understand that humans are really smart and a possible threat to them so they act friendly to us.. I've seen a lot of orcas showing their belly to human which is a friendly sign.

Disturbed Orca Okay, but would you jump off the boat and into a group of orcas looking for food?

The way he made the elephant seals look 15 stories tall instead of 15 feet while he was next to them lol. Amazing work truly

Omg i cant deal with it so sad poor baby

@MetraMan09 the fact is human food just doesn’t contain enough nutrients for its rapid growth. So it’ll eventually starve no matter how much food you give it

@@lyd-ch1148 Realistically speaking you could make a compound good enough to feed them for weeks but most don't want to interfere with the nature

Person is smart. He will feed this one but how many such babies like that on the beach. Sadly! It's natural selection. Heartbreaking to see but nature is wild.

@Miss Isle .... Are you insane? Nature is cruel? It is neither cruel nor benevolent. It just is a cycle. Humans have broken that cycle and defile every quarter inch of the world we step on with full on megafarms. Have you not seen Chernobyl? Humans did that, and nature reclaimed that human made catastrophe and will continue to lick the wounds humans inflict on the world. Give me a break.

@@riptidev10 not sure you can blame natural selection here: the phenotype of this baby seal has not much to do with the fact it was eliminated while other babies were selected. It's more about population regulation by predators (here orcas). Or what survival mode is about: those mothers are simply doing their duty of protecting the life of their own baby. @SUN OF GOD As humans most of us are blessed to no longer know what survival mode is about. But many of us experienced the pain of feeling rejected while we needed help. And that's what gets triggered by such images. So if you find yourself saying "Bitch !" to those animals, just take 1 min to think about who you are really saying it to, because you are clearly projecting you own drama on those animals that are simply struggling to survive.😟

Wonder if leopard seals ever set foot on this island. Or any kind of sharks, like the mako or white sharks since they are sorta "warm blooded" and can hunt in colder waters other sharks would be killed by. Any thoughts?

The sharks would probably be eaten by the orcas. Well, just their livers

Also, sorry for such an essay but I have been very interested in this subject recently. Cheers man.
