I would be the first one to jump in oh, this is my dream I absolutely love killer whales. But I would also make sure I'm respecting their space I'm giving them the choice to come and swim with me. They are beautiful magnificent and intelligent animals
@@taharbenseddik5607 You're right, no shark would dare come anywhere near them. In fact there's evidence that upon Orcas arrival at the Farralon Islands, White Sharks immediately dove for deep water and swam in a straight line out of the area, not to return for a whole year.
@@sunnchilde That's a fact. The great white knows that he or she would be history if it comes to an encounter with an orca. The top predator of the sea. But to me it's also something special to be aware of the fact that orca's don't attack people. Still don't know why. Just like dolphins, the little brothers of the orca's.
after that time i di 15 days party to celebrate it but in October the same year 2 more times ;) Amazing Year for me ! Since i missed them many time even in 2023
@@tohoraboraborasnorkelingla9675 That's very nice to hear and the way you talk about it must be fun for everybody who loves orca's. King regards from The Netherlands.
Beautiful to watch and to be aware of the fact that orca's also like to interact with humans, like we like to interact with them. I love the orcinus orca !! Greetings from The Netherlands and Morocco.
@@tohoraboraborasnorkelingla9675 You're welcome. We have, just like a lot of other people, the same thoughts. Let orca's live in their natural habitat. After all this is the most normal way for them. No orca's in captivity !!
@@taharbenseddik5607 exactly they are so much better in their natural space like all species on earth and when we have the chance to be able to observe them and we must seize it
Just like some other people I also have something on my mind for years. Some people are so lucky. So, if I will ever have the opportunity to swim with orca's I will not hesitate for a single moment. I don't think it's something strange for a human to try to achieve something you really like to happen. And I love the Orcinus Orca so much.
I hope that one day you will have the chance to observe them and why swim with them because it is an exceptional moment and it is to live, I had the chance in 2019 to be able to do it 3 times and it was happiness every time!
How would an orca know that they are all bones and no meat? Your comment makes no sense. Most fish in the sea and seals are mostly meat, so what makes you think an orca seeing a human in the water thinks it doesn't have meat on it?
Superbes images, vous avez beaucoup de chance je vous envie !!! On aperçois une orque avec quelque chose à la bouche, ça s'est enlevé ? La pollution causée par l'homme fait des ravages dans les océans c'est triste. Un pouce bleu et je m'abonne ! A bientôt

@@haileebrooke7998 it was the 29 of May 2019, last year 35 of them where cruising around Bora Bora during the whales season, since yearfirst week of May they were close to an another island ; i hope to see them again ;)
This one was in May 2019, there is orca all year in French Polynesia but it’s rare to see them, even during the whales season you need to be really lucky to get the chance to see them. Last year at least 3 or 4 times they have been seen around Bora and the last one was two weeks before Christmas.
@@tohoraboraborasnorkelingla9675 thanks for your reply. So lucky you had the opportunity to see them! I'm heading to Vancouver to hopefully see them in August and was looking at stopping in Bora Bora had no idea they could be seen there also 🤗
@@rheavine1455 you’re welcome. I saw them 3times in 2019, I swam with also. It was a dream, i am the first in French Polynesia who swam with them , nobody did it before ! 😉 You have to come at the whales season (august to November) if also you want swim with humpback whales ; come and join us 😉
There are 0 documented cases of orcas attacking humans in the wild. There have been orca trainers who have been killed by orcas at SeaWorld though. Orcas do not belong in captivity!
Michael Retana it’s rare to see them it was my first time in 16 years in Bora Bora but this year there is a lot of killer Whales around bora since 3weeks. I hope to see them again this year !!
@@tohoraboraborasnorkelingla9675 Did they come back this year? It's been a dream all my life to see a killer whale. Planning on going to bora bora next year for my honeymoon.
@@allexis356 This year in August there was 25 to 30 of them in august, they were cruising around Bora Bora but it's rare ; you have to be really lucky !
Don’t need to see a movie like Orca that is a stupid movie like jaws and Blackfish speaking about poor killer whales who were taken of the ocean to be close inside an aquarium to small for them and felt crazy just for the pleasur of human !!!!
@@EvripidouM what’s the problem, we swam with gentle orcas and it was amazing ! People do it in Norway since 18 years !! Stop to watch tv and see watch happen it the world !!!!
Nobody's talking about the beautifulness of those waters
Indeed the Polynesian waters are magnificent whether in the ocean but also in the lagoon!
And the luck is that the water is crystal clear
The only time I would be in the ocean and not worry about sharks!
Anyway if you see a shark mean you are lucky 😉
I would be the first one to jump in oh, this is my dream I absolutely love killer whales. But I would also make sure I'm respecting their space I'm giving them the choice to come and swim with me. They are beautiful magnificent and intelligent animals
Normally I would never ever go into the ocean, but in the presence of those Orca I would be as safe as anyone could possibly be.
agreed. orca protect
They were very cool 😉
Among orca's you know there's no shark in that area whatsoever.

Take note Sea World. This is how they are in the wild. Not in your swimming tanks doing tricks for food.
Exactly, millions times better to see them in the wild !!
oh my!! they're so gorgeous, that first look was soo close and mesmerizing!!
yes amaya, it's was a dream come true ;)
😍
yes ,)
I would be crying tears of joy underwater!!!!!! AMAZING experience what a true blessing
after that time i di 15 days party to celebrate it but in October the same year 2 more times ;) Amazing Year for me ! Since i missed them many time even in 2023
I would be so happy if I was swimming with them.
Amazing interaction between a human and orca's which for both is an experience of importance.
It was a Dream for me, the weather was perfect, the water so clear, with my son and friends an amazing expérience !

That's very nice to hear and the way you talk about it must be fun for everybody who loves orca's.

Yes i’ll never Forget that moment and i did 3times in 2019
It’s crazy how there all over the world! If I was an orca I’d stay In the most beautiful waters
for them water doesn't change ;)
Beautiful to watch and to be aware of the fact that orca's also like to interact with humans, like we like to interact with them.

Great footage, Simon... that must have been exciting!
yes Brian it was amazing !!
Fantastic Simon. Hugs from Germany
Jakob Wittmann yes it was amazing and since i saw tow more times 😃😄
Great video Simon!! Thanks for sharing!
thank you it was an amazing encounter !
Gotta love that 300' visability....and the 82° water. Lol
Magnifique !
c'était plus que ça ! ;)

Wonderful to hear you were able to experience this more than once…

Yes they are
I know it's off topic the Pacific Ocean is really blue, and the Atlantic is turquoise!
it's not off topic but it's good to know ;)
Water is beautiful!
yes it was crystal clear ;)
I would love to see them but would be horrified to see them chasing down a humpback calf. . .are they there during the same seasons?
GREATE LEARNING FROM THIS VIDEO
Wonderful
Yes they are 👍😉
wow beautiful!!!
Yes it was amazing 👍😉
Very Beautiful!
Yes it was amazing !!!
The people in the water were 100% safe. They we all bones and no meat.

The trip to Bora Bora was quite the experience.Maybe it was the wrong season or orcas stay away from Club Méditerranée.The song is so authentic.
what time of year was this?!

Orca gang 4 lyf
Hope these apex predators never get an appetite for human flesh...
There are 0 documented cases of orcas attacking humans in the wild. There have been orca trainers who have been killed by orcas at SeaWorld though. Orcas do not belong in captivity!
I'm sure you meant to title the video "Killers swimming with killers", right?
They so loud, you can guarantee the whales hear them..
Is there a certain month to swim with orcas in Bora Bora or did they just happen to be around there just one time
Michael Retana it’s rare to see them it was my first time in 16 years in Bora Bora but this year there is a lot of killer Whales around bora since 3weeks. I hope to see them again this year !!

Yes exactly, even if most of the human scare of them 😉
👍👍👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Thank you 😉
Didn't see anyone swimming with Orcas 🤔
We did and 3 times in 2019
The goes Just like: ah toi torotoi ah
I don't know why people always spoil videos with music or something in the background.
quite simply because three minutes with the sound of water or those of the engines is not great, that is the reason !!
@@cenciersimon9984 The music sucked though
@@thunderthighs3450 if you don't have taste it's not my fault !!
@@thunderthighs3450 You want to know my thoughts ... I don't care and cut the sound !!
We named it Orca, not killer whale
As you want
I was just in French polonysia
Yes in Bora Bora and it was the first time that people did swim with killer whales and it was Us 😁😉
Ils ont plongé sans pression mdr
pas de pression, elles étaient très cool et venaient jouer avec le bateau.
I didn't see anybody swimming.
I saw a person but was brief
@@julieedinger2462 : I watched this again and I did see for a second or two, someone at the top left of the screen at around 2:30.
@@stevewilliams3850 it would been cool to have seen more of them in the water.
Orcas approach boats with their babies because that is their means of going to the zoo.
it's your way of seeing things when you have a narrow mind
Imma guess the dude filming the in water footage never saw the movie ORCA or the documentary BLACKFISH.
Don’t need to see a movie like Orca that is a stupid movie like jaws and Blackfish speaking about poor killer whales who were taken of the ocean to be close inside an aquarium to small for them and felt crazy just for the pleasur of human !!!!
Orca is a movie. Fake. Blackfish is sbout orcas who suffered. Wild orcas are curious snd friendly. Search for videos "swimming with irvas"
@@EvripidouM what’s the problem, we swam with gentle orcas and it was amazing !
People do it in Norway since 18 years !! Stop to watch tv and see watch happen it the world !!!!
