The guy who counted those 75 orcas have great counting skills
Probably with radar inside the ocean. And might misscalculated too
@@ananthakrishnanbaji7956 Did you really think they would count all the Orcas, even the ones that are deeper in the ocean?
@@ihelxsourxxz2410 they probably used sonar radar. It's similar to aerial radar.
Maybe people were familiar with this specific group of orcas and had counted them before.
He can see through the water
The Blue Whale didn't die for nothing. It showed a resilient resistance towards 75 predators & lasted 3 hours! That's a true warrior spirit.
I'm guessing it was hella big even for 75 orcas, but I guess
Blue whale need a buff
@@FutureGamesOfficial_ maybe theyll get it in the next patch
may it rest in peace

Fighting 3-hours against 75 orcas puts you in a rare class of living creature… probably the most tough thing I’ve ever seen.
Heavyweight champ
💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
@@reeyees50
It losed, so no champ.
RIP big fella, we need more of your kind in the oceans.
Fella!? Are you assuming it's gender!?
its a fin whale
Orcas have to eat too.
Why?
Yeah fk these vatos, RIP blue fella.
Amazing isn't it? How nature can be both oh-so-beautiful and terrifying at the same time...
This kind of video should be spread to vegen communities.
Nature is easy to predict, n digest ; try studying the human species...
Nature is not beautiful. Nature is a real life horror movie where ALL CREATURES have slow painful HORRIBLE DEATHS, animals in nature rarely die by age. Guess we just have to hope it’s not too long before the dying sun explodes in to a red hot giant and evaporates the oceans and finally ends all life. *That would END 100% of suffering for every sentient living being permanently.*
@@saimyintmyat9373
Hahaha bruh.
Sure,of course,but it's better than humans at least
Imagine killer whales with newfound taste for humans that would be alot scarier than sharks.
yeah they can eat you on beach
That would lead to the extinction of killer whales.
@@ayush885 lol
@@ayush885 yeah, that basically how we humans would react.
They just play with anything they find at sea
The Whale was probably sick, old or both..a fit Blue Whale could dive to depths of 2000 mtrs and hold its breath for over 2 hours the Orcas could not match that.
thats what i was thinking when i started to view the video
It couldn't it was trapped shallow waters......
Wow.
She's not old it's teen ablue adult blue whale grows upto 35 to 40 m
it’s a fin whale
It's so painful to see such a majestic creature being killed.
But it's also amazing how hard they are to be killed.
its a fin whale
@@jwill2k225 u dunce its a blue whale
I love how the video is discussing about how 75 animals devoured another one while playing the most soothing music ever
Lol!
Gotta balance out the negatives💀💀
Yes! I was looking for this comment, exactly! 😂
Whale tongue is soothing to the Orcas bellies.
Sounds like mass effect
Friends: Why don't you think killer whales are cute?
Me: I have my reasons.
If you took away their cool markings they would look absolutely terrifying as well.
I as a lover of Killer Whales won't argue with that 🤣😆😅
''if only you were there.... ''
i wonder why they're nice to us. They would have much much more food if they became our predators as well rite?
@@yeeyt464 they are not not nice to us they flip over ton on boat in Portugal and Spain
The pain this blue whale must feel for even a brief moment to be eaten alive is just astounding I realize it’s mother nature taking its course it’s just a brutal thing to witness 😳 🥺 😒 😞 😢
Lol wait until you see what mama nature is gna do to you.
you know 99% of prey in nature are eaten alive right
The Blue Whale WASN'T eaten ALIVE.
The Orcas use their numbers to force the whale down, preventing it from breathing, thus drowning it. Once the Blue has drowned they then start to feed on it
3 hours is no brief moment but yes
@Milspecmachine The whale wasn't eaten alive, it was kicking off these pods of Orcas, til one orca sneaked, than stunned the whale to death.
there were lots of things to mention
1. blue whale was resilient
2. counting 75 orcas while they go up and down the ocean is an astounding feat (but if there's tags to determine them then yeah still awesome)
3. this is a rare occasion by our eyes/cameras, but it's probably not a rare event, there might be orca hunting again happening as I'm typing this. we really don't know what's happening underwater.
more likely a rare event because blue whales themselves are uncommon
Rest in peace big guy. You’re a warrior.
Why thank you. I did my best. But 75 to 1 was more than I could manage.
@@dentatusdentatus1592 “every whale sets its sail”. Rest in paradise champ.! 🐋
that’s a fin whale
"Rest in pieces "
Dosen't the Orcas know that the Blue whale is on the protected species list and so they can't be killed?
Killer whales stay in close knitted pods with a matriarch being the head of the family. So rn you just saw this orca family swim up to a blue whale and miss granny was like "ok time for dinner kids"
Do they have so many killer whales in one pod? 75 is surely a huge group to go around together
@@freezysyahz wait I remember replying to this comment but I can't see it anymore 😅
I'll comment again.
Maybe they're multiple pods. Neighboring pods can share a prey if it's especially big. Even some species can come together to hunt sometimes, check this fascinating video out th-cam.com/video/6zOarcL1BSc/w-d-xo.html
They had so many in their pod they had to get a whale to feed em all
Ok
I love how poeple say animals "belong in nature" because it's where they'll be "happy"
still, I'd rather take my chances in the ocean than in a tank at Sea World.
It’s not being “devoured alive,” at least not in any of this footage. The killer whales are attempting to drown it.
They’re trying to drown a whale?
@@dripminic They use some maneuver to prevent the whale from inhaling above the surface.
That would still take hours and hours of this was true
@@laughoutmeow it says in the video they took 3 hours to end it
Ive seen 'the killer of whales' chase down a green whale taking chunks outta the calf. pretty sure the video is on youtube. These dolphins didn't get that name for nothing.. They do drown whales. Using chasing, bites,ramming, exhaustion, etc helps them.
I know it's nature taking its' course, but I still feel sad for the whale. Not to mention that blue whale is almost extinct 😢
1 big guy for 75 mid guys... just how whale and other predator works....
Thank humanity for over whaling
@Joseph Arden and before them the Americans and other whalers.
It's nature .. so even if orcas eat whales somehow whales don't get extinct because of their predators..
It's because of us humans that these beautiful creatures get extinct and endangered..
Hope you understand 😁
@Echizen Kirino
Why not blame humans
Those orcas are innocent
Humans made blue whale facing extinction
You should blame the humans not the orcas
You guys may use the nature is beautiful jokes on this video
At least nature is alot beautiful than humans life.
They were called a killer whale for a reason... They also attack sharks too
To bad our world is no longer like this
Orcas are member of dolphin family. They are whale killer, not killer whale.
@@Todsor Exactly A Killer Whale aka Orca is technically a dolphin that got classified as a whale due to its size.
Well that was the wonderful plan🥺🥺
@@Jayjay-sz4tq how
Both are beautiful majestic creatures. It's amazing how they fight for their lives - to not be eaten, and to not be starved.
The ocean is so vast that you can't really say that this kind of predation is rare. It might be happening every single day.
75 against 1 is a bit overkill even for nature
Well you can't eat a whole pig by yourself so you gotta fest it with other people.
@@evoemperor3776 im not sharing a pig with 75 other people
@@Xeggs Im not sharing my cheese with 75 people
Dont turn Tabled my Comment. I know you kids 😒
Tf yall comparing people eating a pig with a Blue whale. 75 orcas would take a while till it gets eaten fully.
that's my first thought too, I'm thinking there might be something disruptive happened in the food supply chain that caused so many of them go hungry, hence banding together to take down a large prey to share. but I'm not sure.
In another reality: Whales react in horror as they watch a human get eaten alive by 75 gnomes.
Sounds like an episode on Rick and Morty
I was gonna make a keemstar joke but it would be too killer
TPain nice
I’ll have a pint of whatever you’re drinking please
Amazing how such a scene was captured. Props to the cameramen!
That was a raid boss. Surprising the Orca raid leader was able to organize such a large team.
Where was the Leeroy Jenkins of Orcas to ruin this raid?
Only chance the whale had was to dive deep since the giant whale can go way deeper than orcas. Since it's staying at the surface the whole time it might've been injured before the attack.
Magnificent creatures
Or you know, the 50 other orcas were pushing it to the surface
Cool information
Def. It must've alrdy been bitten and also there's alot of orcas surrounding him i
Must've been panicking. What er I didnt ask for this kind of vids But I watched it anyways.
Shut up I saw you surfing next to it

It's sad watching the blue whale's life slowly faded away. I just lost all my appetite.
It’s the nature
I hate orcas
Idk why but at first I got angry that it got devoured alive but I am trying to "accept it"😒😊
It’s beautiful how the blue whale creates waves while fighting for its life, and these orcas working together is just astonishing

by fighting you mean trying to swim away and getting eaten? cuz.... it didnt do anything else
Why did it remain at the top of the sea-- Why not dive deep? How did we conclude that the whale died- because it went under and could no longer be seen? May be it dived under
@@BarugoSama trying to survive isn’t fighting for your life? 😂
It says a lot that they could only take down a young whale in three hours with that many numbers on their side. Blue whales are a formidable species.
Blue whales aren’t violent or aggressive, they’re just big. Orcas typically go after sick, dying, or young calfs of any whale species because it’s just easier.

If it makes you feel better, the body releases pain killing chemicals during moments like these called endorphins. I should hope the whale has them too, and even if it doesn't it still would've went into shock.
@@Khatru-qk8po no that doesn’t make me feel better. The blue whale was chased and slowly bitten by the orcas for 3 hours. Would you want a pack of dogs chasing you for 3 hours while Slowly biting off chunks of your skin ?
@@JD-jz5rr Of course not. I see your point, I'd want it to be quick!
I think Hyena attacks are more horrifying since they'll start to eat you on the spot, starting from the back while still alive
a tough case of a newly separated sub adult blue that was possibly in distress and didn't know or couldn't dive to a depth to protect itself
We don't really know if this is rare or not--we only know it is rarely filmed.
Other people: killer whales aren't even that scary they're really cute and smart and friendly!
killer whales:
They think the word killer in their name is just for show
They are, but in the wild, and when the conditions are harsh, they can get really... aggressive. They were given the name ‘killer whale’ because they killed whales back then when humans discovered them.
Orcas only friendly toward human since they're smart. But in the ocean, orcas are apex predators the most dangerous dolphins that even sharks don't want to mess with them.
Literally nobody says that
I’m not sure who would think that.... I never heard anyone say that in my life. Lol
A 13 meter blue whale isn't actually a giant, it's still quite young.
13 metre blue whale is still huge
y probably a teen
That's even more upsetting... poor thing had its whole life ahead of it but oh well, that's nature..
I'm saying even if the mom was there would it really be able to fend off that many orcas
@@space-nl7cw No one rescues blue whales and releases them from captivity like SeaWorld does with nursing animals back to health. That only works with dolphins and porpoises, because they can be reconditioned in a medium sized sea-pen to life in the sea.
The whale here is probably a juvenile. It's not a calf as they stick with their mothers.
"Orcas are the wolves of the sea"
"Wolves are the orcas of the land"
That's nothing. You should see Rosie O'Donnell tear up a Chinese Buffet.
she ain’t got nothin’ on dRUMPf and a bucket of KFC.
Humpback whales have been known to intervene and protect other species of whales from orcas. Even if the orcas are successful in killing a whale, the humpbacks will guard the body so the orcas can't have the pleasure of a meal. Amazing, intelligent creatures.
They do the same with seals
@@EternalEmperorofZakuul they do! There's actually been footage of that as well 😁
@@crystaldutton1837 maybe because of compassion or revenge

*Blue whale:* _is literally being eaten alive_
*A bunch of birds:* Ayyyy
What is pretty Amazing is how that whale is able to to survive years alive with all the orcas out there
Wow he fought them off for 3 hours and went out like a G
Respect
Respect to the whale. Held its ground against 75 predators and made them work extra hard for their dinner. He went down fighting.
Yeah and still got eaten alive
Made them stronger and smarter too. Next time only 25 will go in so Every one isn't in the way
True that takes toughness to handle 75 whales even though blue whales are large.
@@connorcampbell2536 right, respect isn't much consolation when you're dead
You bought that “The 16-meter whale tried to fight back.” hook, line & sinker. *ORCA* are THE *APEX* Predator, friend. They beat their prey to death before eating, whether it’s a blue whale, a minke, a seal, a stingray, a sea lion, a dolphin, a great white or a manta. This guy was “lucky” enough to be born a blue whale, meaning he was bigger, meaning he got to swim a little longer while they beat him to death & dined. He didn’t ‘hold its ground’, lol.
*ORCA* are undefeated. No one “holds their own” against the Whale Killers. No one “goes down fighting”. They just go down. “Respect to the whale”? #RespectTheWhaleKillers
I feel bad for the Orcas. They don’t know that was John Wick’s Blue Whale.
😂
Lol
John Wick...on a ship....with an arsenal of guns.....committing whale genocide.
This comment is going to blow up
So will the orcas
This whale deserves it's own memorial statue or plaque!
It doesn't
This is heartbreaking with blue whales still under protection. Yet this is nature and can not of been prevented. The adult blue whale died but showed it's tremendous ability of survival lasting the three hours of constant violent aggression by the orcas.
If it's just 16 meters ( 55 feet ) long, it's not fully grown yet.
During the peak years of Antarctic whaling a century ago, whalers would routinely harpoon 100 foot long blue whales!
Orcas are also protected, as far as I know.
Capturing it on camera may be rare... however the event probably isn’t
@Alternate but that's just an assumption. We don't know for sure what drove them to do this
This is the first time this event has been caught on camera, if it wasn't that rare of an occurrence there would be more
@@1z487 😂 You’re logic is hilarious! Thanks for the laugh!
@@Geo-oe8ce yeah now I think about it 😂🤦
@Alternate No. Orcas are known for attacking and killing blue whale calves. Attacking blue whales was never out of the ordinary
This scene reminded me of Mikasa, : "this world is cruel ,yet beautiful"
Aot
Sasageyo
Same !
Attack on titan!
When did she say that? I dont actually remember
These orcas are like big mammal versions of piranhas.
Sad and beautiful at the same time !
That whale is going to feed A LOT of creatures, not just that family of orcas. I just wish he didn't have to suffer so much. But that is nature, nurturing one moment, cruel the next.
Very true
Nature is balanced, sometimes kind, but never fair
@Mammon Tustado There is nothing cruel about that. What is cruel is the slaughterhouses of billions of Cattles, Swines, Chickens, Turkeys, and Sheeps all lined up, keeping them in filthy unclean cage, separating their babies from them(even slaughtering the babies for meat), etc. Harpooning a whale in the back is cruel, but not if the Whale was stunned to death by an Orca, since it is a Humane hunt, similar how the Indigenous Khoisans of Southern Africa stun their hunt to death with poison arrow, that is giving their hunt a painless death. The Whale was fighting them off for 3 hours, didn't suffer when it was stunned to death, just how much they would suffer if there back was harpooned.
Oh whale ...
Documentary: "The latest event is only the third attack ever captured on camera."
Orcas: "Dawg....we do this every Wednesday!"
That’s what I was thinking hahaha
This is not a place to joke.
People still say ‘dawg’???? What are you,,12?
Worst comment eva🤣🤣
@@dougdavis8986 Yeah, now everyone just uses the N word instead of dawg. But it's not racist in the rap and hip hop community, right?
it's possible to capture a sonar live screen and count every boat, fish, and wale in it. once the image is printed or moved to another stills screen. Ships, boats and submarines have awesome technology.
You’ve hit the jackpot right there going on a whale watching excursion and witnessing that.
The level of coordination between the orcas is fascinating, they must have planned it so that a groups would be on top and a group would be below it, the amount of mental capacity and creativity needed to create such a plan and then the mental strength to actually execute it is just astounding.
And terrifying. What happens when the seas become less and less fruitful for the predators of the ocean....
hi from what i've learned orcas usually try to drown whales by staying above and by jumping onto their spoutholes repeatedly whenever the whale tries to surface . they are very smart
@@tomb3268 holy smokes that's awesome. Thanks for that info!

Beautiful yet so, heart breaking is nature at work. .

Фантастика,зрелище просто ...слов нет.
It's nature. It didn't die for nothing. He became life itself for the 75 orcas.
The name “killer whale” surfaced much later after the original name was recorded, which is “whale killer”.
Orcas are known as predators of whales.
They can only do this to single whales though, as whale packs tend to herd together, so the Orcas cannot get any traction on attacks.
I still think they should have been called Sea Pandas...
This behavior is what made whaling in the past so devastating. Because whales originally went into an anti killer whale defense position making them easy targets for whalers. It took time but they eventually learned to scatter rather than huddle when dealing with humans.
Yea it was a translation error
Maybe pandas should've been named land orcas, you ever think about that?

Tragedy? Sure that's the correct word to use?
I think that an animal was devoured alive over the course of three hours is painful and tragic to say the least...
This was written by a human.
How is it a tragedy? Is it a tragedy when fifty pirhanas eat a fish in the Amazon. Orca's aren't supposed to eat?
@@craigcrawford6749 It's a tragedy in the sense that Blue Whales are endangered and a truly phenomenal animal. I understand that it's nature, but come on it's not that hard to figure out why people would see this kind of thing and be upset.
2/3s of the the planet is ocean so I’m not sure how this can be declared as a rare event. Capturing it on camera may be rare but that doesn’t make the event type rare.
Orca pods that big are rare and so are blue whales and the ocean is fkn huge so yes just looking at the statistics alone this is a rare event.
Whoa this just happened again off coast of Australia!
When all the players switched to the other team and you're the only one left
@Aleks Monza I know it's too soon but it was a _little_ funny
:’(
@Celly Chip mission failed we'll get em next time
Funny.
Not rare at all, only rare that we get to see it. The orcas drown the whale and bite at it, eventually disabling its ability to swim. It’s a genius teamwork maneuver.
This is absolutely rare. It’s rare because (a) any large whale species in the same location as these types of orcas is rare (b) finding a whale that is sick or dying is rare
^ And I just don't think we are qualified to say that. Do we live in the oceans and rely on its fish and other mammals for our primary and sole (no pun intended) means of food? I think not. So, I am saying I think this happens a lot more than we might think, but we are just not always around to see it. So it is rare to us. Not necessarily to the killer whales.
You'd think the Blue whale would just dive down 1000ft and say come get some Orcas. 😞
Literally was my first thoughts after watching the video, really amazinf
@@Preacher_. then it would drown as they wait for it to come back up
White shark: i'm on top of the food chain.

Okay but I always find it somewhat amusing that the second anything like this happens every bird within like a 50 miles radius is like “THE TIME IS NOW MA FRIENDS”
Underrated comment XD
😆😆😆😆
It's always part of the hierarchy. The smaller animals waiting for scraps
Right !!!
I've read Orcas will pull whales down by their tales while other Orcas in the pod attempt to smother the whales blow whole when trying to breach for air. The large mammal eventually drowns from exhaustion. But the immense stamina to withstand that type of onslaught from 75+ predators for 3 hours is insane. I don't believe any land mammal could do that. Despite losing the battle, that whale is GOAT no doubt.
The blue whale is the largest animal ever to live. Not the largest modern animal, the largest *ever*.
@@mikicerise6250 In my response I don't believe I said a blue whale is the largest modern animal. I am quite aware it is the largest living creature our planet has currently seen.
The birds were like “let’s intervene!”
Unpopular opinion: predators like orcas are the worst
They’re not called “Killer Whales” for nothin ya know
I am more amazed how they managed to count 75 orcas in that whole mess with all the birds and waves then by the fact i watched this rare phenomenon.
It's because of an sonar radar that tells them the correct count
Dont worry, its an exaggeration. They cant be exact 75. What if the total is 65 or 72?
It's probably a known and studied group of individuals.
Thats bs. 75 is just impossible, if not, that pod is world's biggest pod of orcas.
@@salmanbinahmed8253 There is an offshore Killer whale population in the northeast Pacific. They travel far from shore and feed primarily on schooling fish. However, because they have large, scarred and nicked dorsal fins resembling those of mammal-hunting transients, it may be that they also eat mammals and sharks. They typically congregate in groups of 20-75, with occasional sightings of larger groups of up to 200. Little is known about their habits, but they are genetically distinct from residents and transient types. Offshores types appear to be smaller than the others, and females are characterized by dorsal fin tips that are continuously rounded.
All the birds were like, "MINE! MINE! MINE!" Lol
Rest in peace big guy I love him 🙏
This is why sharks won't come around if orcas are in the area. They are beast!
then what’s the point? Then the orcas would just become the next sharks
Of course orcs works together travel together eat together shark would get rekt by group if it comes near them
Dolphins too.
Orcas are larger and 100x higher IQ than sharks. Orcas have language and work in groups. Shark has no chance.

Yea the video is trying to make this a tragic and sad event, it's Not
Yup, it's like a lion pack taking down a buffalo... it happens
@@jacks5369 Its trying to humanize it.
Sad to see a majestic animal like a Blue Whale go, but wow are Orcas just an incredible life form.
Orcas are literally terrifying lol they seem so cute but they literally attack ANYTHING
They are kind of psyco killers
Orcas : you mess with me , you mess with my family
Whale : huh *dies*
Fast and furious (ocean edition)
It's the opposite but the whale dies anyways.
Don't you mean Fish & Furious the SEAqual?
I heard vegans harass people for eating meat. But I've never heard them complaining instances like this.
Vegetarian's complain a lot too not just vegans. Only thing I haven't done is not dumping my food on their head.
Vegans are just as dumb as the grass they're eating
This guy be like: We got 1, 2, 3, 75 orcas
They don't call Orcas "The Wolves of the Sea" for nothing.
The Orcas were NOT "bullying" the whale.
They weren't picking on it in the schoolyard, making fun of its glasses.
They were hunting it, working together to eat it for their own survival.
That's how nature works.
They aren’t saying they called it names, they’re saying they kept hammering on it for three hours until it died - it’s an adjective, not a value judgment
@ Big Lemon: Kudos to your posting what appears to be the ONLY thoughts Not grounded in a" sententious mindset ," but one with a firm grasp of actions that are a everyday function of what is reality in NATURE - "HUNTING !"
Agreed, but those thinking they are cute want to get a grip. A little knowledge is a dangerous thing.
Actually it's a complex cooperative task. Wonderful.
