      I hear you, Eddie. I think those who saw it wanted credit for being the ones who filmed a first generational, breakthrough event, but there is no way they can prove it isn't an action taught, and passed down, for eons. It being an action they've done for eons is much more likely, for a original breakthrough event that so helps a pod survive only happens once - ever.

      The only recorded attacks on humans by orcas are the ones that have been forced into aquariums or theme parks. So the ones that live in uncomfortable conditions and suffer from anxiety and depression. In the ocean, orcas are very unlikely to attack humans. The most common cause of death for humans at sea is actually heart attacks, with being hit by objects, and suicide being the next most likely causes of deaths. Animal attacks are generally pretty low and the deaths tend to be caused by either human health or error (i.e. alcohol)

    I spent the summer with the orca on the west coast of Canada. Some of the transient families use a similar technique for catching and inshore seals and sea lions. The difference with our orca is that while one or two hunters wait silently beside the seal colony, another one will circle 'round to the other side and work to scare the seals off the rocks and into the water.

      If you watch the entire show there odd a disclaimer that explains how some of the story was recreated using unrelated footage and staged scenarios. This is a highly dramatized “documentary”. The truth is that a hungry animal that must consume hundreds of pounds of meat per day will do some very risky and desperate behaviors. More survival instinct than intelligence but they have to make the narrative more entertaining than reality

Orca pods that have no contact with each other utilize completely different hunting strategies and approach the same situations in completely different ways. Ergo orcas must be capable of creating new hunting strategies as individuals.

If it had been a bottlenose, for example, the narrator would not have said "the whale below." Since we don't refer to them all that way, it drives a distinction between orcas and the rest of the dolphin population. Its surprising how many people do not know that they are in the same family. But, with wording like that found in the video, it becomes more understandable.
