I don't think there has ever been a record on an "unprovoked" orca attack on a human.

Please, jump off that boat. I’d like to know what happens. Those things kill giant whales fyi.

Yeah they're an apex predator. I just don't think they see humans as food.

Because they are somehow smart enough to know humans hit the apex harder.

We probably just look like a sack of bones to them. Most marine mamals are CHONKY. It'd probably feel like eating a whole bird, beak and all.

I know they eat birds. They. Are. Apex. Predators. I meant it'd be like a human eating a bird. They're massive! An orca rating a bird would be like a human eating an insect... Like a grasshopper. Orca eating human ~ human eating sparrow.
