    Jaws overly demonized sharks. The truth is, though, they don't really want anything to do with us. Even Great Whites just investigate. Most people don't even realize they're being checked out. As long as you pay attention and behave appropriately, you're not getting eaten by a shark.

    What they did to demonize Orcas is even worse.

          I just think it's very tacky and ungraceful to have a 20 line exposition on a movie poster. This is like 1950s comic book writing where instead of showing a character's thoughts, the text would just describe what happens on the page (which you can clearly see anyway).

      The stories about the navy ships sinking and the survivors (even uninjured and not bleeding) being picked off or sharks following life rafts waiting for someone to jump in or surfers losing legs waiting for a wave make it seem like more of a location thing. If you're at the beach you're less likely to run into one to begin with and if you do they are probably too cautious to try picking you off. But after a certain depth the number that see you goes up and so does the risk because of it.

        The only recorded attack on humans was in the 70s. It was a surfer that walked away. He got a ton of stitches, but didn't lose any body parts. Orcas attack boats, most likely because of what you mentioned and the fact that we're competing for fish. Even when Orcas have successfully sank a boat, they left the people in the water alone. They are far kinder to us than we deserve.

          They don't even nibble us to see if we taste good. Sharks do. Think about that, a shark, a fricking fish, has more curiosity for a novel morsel of maybe-food than a hyper-intelligent mammal? Does that make sense to you? These creatures, intelligent as they are, don't even wonder what we taste like.

          They know better. Sharks are curious but not very smart, so they go in for a taste test. Orcas are too smart for that. They KNOW that attacking humans is a bad idea, no matter how good we might taste.

            Yes. We should have been specifying that Orcas don't attack people in the wild. Cage them up and you eventually become their toy. And they kill their toys for fun. They commonly "play" with their food. That's something that makes it even more extraordinary that they're so cool with us.

            Tilikum. And he killed more than 1 trainer.
            Usually it isn't brought up in this sort of conversation about wild orcas though since it's pretty clearly the captivity fricked him up.
            The two matriarchs he was housed with out beat the shit out of him enough that they had to keep him in a tiny medical pool, the slouched fin is supposed to be indicative of depression and a chemical imbalance and I think one of the times he attacked a trainer was blamed on him doing something he always got a fish for, not getting one that time when doing it, and throwing a fit, so most of the circumstances were ones he wouldn't experience in the wild.

                Sperm and Breeding program money even moreso than show attendance tickets was the big money maker from Orcas.
                In 2016 some law god passed in the US that disallows breeding of captive Orcas or the sale/trade of sperm and embryos. So effectively, any company that has a captive whale can keep it and use it in educational shows until it dies (as laws also tightened up what "shows" were allowed), but cannot breed it to produce more. And capturing of whales was never allowed in the US from what I remember buy buying or being given them by companies in other countries, then breeding them in captivity here was the way they got around that.

            Thats cavediving, normal sea diving is very riskless unless you are grossly incompenent. But tbqh too many ppl dive as is and many are very reckless about the nature aspect of it, like breaking off coral.

            This is for people braver than me. I'll just take my chances hiking in the savanna or something.

            freedivers don't need to decompress slowly because they aren't breathing compressed air. decompression sickness is consequently rare for free divers.

      they ARE extremely dangerous and are predators unlike most similarly large whales which tend to be filter-feeders and are intelligent and would attack and sink whaling vessels cause they knew what was going on and could be revenge-motivated, unlike a shark which is basically just food-motivated

    Wish I could remember it.
    There was weird scene where the gator drags her to his nest and she wakes up there or something like that but maybe that was just my nightmares of it after.

      They can, but they don't except in very rare cases. One guy was free diving with some sperm whales and a juvenile got a bit close. Diver put his hand out to keep the baby whale from swimming into him and when the whale came hit his hand, he lost all feeling and function in his arm for a few hours. But yes, they're capable of killing you with a click. Says a lot about them given how many of them we've slaughtered.

      I'm born and raised on the Pacific coast, and there are moments when I'm under water looking into the abyss that strike a deep fear into me.
      It's a yawning darkness that stretches out forever and you can feel it.

        Do you ever worry that you might get dragged down into it by a current never to be seen again?

          I've been hunting since I was a kid. September-November is my favorite time of year. It never gets old. Every hunt is different and most years I draw a different tag so I get to use a different weapon which means game is at different elevations and areas which breaks it up even more.

          Nah, nothing's really boring when you have good friends to do it all with and there are different activities in other seasons, too. All of this is in addition to Internet/Vidya/TV/movies/etc as well, of course.
