I used to love the ocean but now don't even want to go near it, let alone in or on it. It's become a scary place, with what appears to be aggressive, coordinated attacks by it's inhabitants. I wonder if something actually attacked that Titan sub. Perhaps there's some kind of real life Namor putting this **** together. Guess we will find out soon enough when Atlantis Rises.

What you said
'touched'
many things.
Mainly that I think for a longer time also, that those sailor's yam weren't only tales.
While I don't think it's useful to be scared and sailors are notorious liars, sorry.
But respectful to the sea, yesβ¦
"Nordsee ist Mordsee"
(= North Sea is Murder Sea).
As I wouldn't cuddle with a bear, I wouldn't cuddle with the North Sea.
Be able to swim and to watch/understand the tides can be helpful though.
Perhaps you heard of Rungholt?

One place of many they suspect to be legendary Atlantis.
And I agree, perhaps a marine animal attacked the Titan.
The Titan was fragile anyhow, one little bump could've been enough.
And nowadays we know (no joke) that huge kraken live in the depth. -

We're ****ed.
The latest research exonerates marine animals.
Attacks are comparatively rare!

Sean Kelly and his colleagues from the water rescue organization Surf Life Saving Australia examined which causes of death, other than drowning, are the most common when swimming, snorkeling, surfing or boating on Australian coasts.
They surveyed the causes of 1,667 deaths that occurred on Australian shores between 2012 and 2022.
The deceased were all older than 16 years; younger people were not included in the data.
63% drowned
35% cardiac arrest or accident
02% marine animals (sharks or jellyfish)
It was primarily males who died.
Almost 86% of the group who didn't die by drowning!
People over the age of 50 are also significantly more likely to die from cardiovascular problems than younger people. Often these people were far from the coast - they went out in a boat.
Due to the greater distance, the rescue could only arrive with a delay and ultimately not in time.

It's just discrimination and prejudice Tara
Maybe if we stopped calling them "Killer Whales" we'd start treating them like fellow mammals which share this planet with us
Period, period.
β
I never called them
"Killer Whales"
, dear Juanita.
Please remember to avoid smileys and emojis if you are truly concerned about
"this planet"

"This planet" will be fine Tara
What's currently on it, not so much
Period, period.

Yah, you're still wasting smileys and emojis, Juanita.

Old Juan transferred them to me in a trust fun Tara and I have to use a certain amount up each year or they go to waste
It's like Brewster's Millions but with emojis and smileys
Yahβ¦a
"trust fun"

Trust is only fun when it is not broken
Period!β¦and agreed.
You should always remember your own words, Juanita.

Though I wouldn't define
trust
as
fun

It allows fun to exist Tara but yes, it itself is anything but fun to attain
And this video is fun to watch.
True, the orcas are called
"Killer Whales"
again.
Well, let's be honest, they
are
killers.
Amazing that free orcas never killed a human.
The video also shows orcas hunting, but nothing graphic.
As almost always I've read some comments.
This one is extremely funny.
"Thereβs no evidence of these whales killing humans in the wild.
But imagine if they were just intelligent enough to hide the evidence."

I should tag
Hungry
to scare the s.h.i.t out of himβ¦for the good times. -

I could only get as far as #8 Tara before I wanted to eat those Americans noising up the waters myself - and I'm not even in the water or have super sensitive hearing by nature!
There are a bunch of areas with beautiful beaches and coves across the world were it is illegal to use an engine boat or jet skis to preserve the serenity for the wildlife such as whales and dolphins. They are generally next to highly exclusive five star resorts (Go figure) and I'd imagine animals such as these would prefer it there.
There's always shore viewings of breaches or peaceful ferry boats but they don't work the wonders on social media as much as the cheapest annoying 'Unique' experiences.
The video started off with a guided canoe but I highly doubt any of the passengers had ever been on the water before
They noise they make just being excited was annoying enough to hide any evidence of them being anywhere near an orca.
I'll stick to Attenborough for my wildlife being wild.
Ding Dong
!

The
'noble'
Europeans are no better.
And the Scots are among the biggest hooligans.
The orca boat attacks occurred on the coast of Spain, just a reminder.
True, in the video they're neither
Trapper John MD
nor such an experienced sailor like you. But you should've watched til the end.
There's a wild orca playing so cutely with a man in his smaller boat.
Even motorboats wouldn't actually be a big problem if there weren't so many.
Planet Earth
is a great miniseries though, yah, stick with it.
Btw. how's the real
Juan Kerr
in the nursing home?
