It is just wonderful. There is so much beauty in this world we could all be nourished by this and feeling part of it. Instead we forget and we run after futile things like money, power, etc.....Thanks for sharing Ole.
Maybe we were the best friends in immemorial times... But if we've forgotten, it's not the case of orcas. Respect for you and this, bros. We love you so much too.
Beautifully produced drone video.Amazing footage! Let's us know that the Orca is the master of the sea game. These two were capable of capsizing the kayaks but seemed to be more curious and totally in control of their proximity to the kayaker so. Amazing photography, thank you so much!
Zandri Rossouw You can see them in Washington State too. My comment wasn't directed at you specifically more to those who want to see them in captivity.
tisoy909 they can't set the orcas free. The one time they tried it starved to death. They said they tried to teach it to hunt fish and they did release it near the pod it was originally taken from but it didn't work.
@@darrylbernard8885 ok. So, you can teach an orca to do stupid tricks that are even unnatural for them, but you can not teach them to hunt. There's a lot of videos of seaworld orcas hunting pelicans. and we want orcas to be on a sanctuary. If they cannot live free at least they live on the ocean.
These orcas who have been held captive, tortured, and traumatised their whole lives deserve the chance to live free. If they can't be released, they can live in a massive ocean reserve with a steady supply of fish to eat. Humanity owes it to them to try. I believe they even have a place ready for them to go. SeaWorld just has to let them go. And they won't do it until they're forced to.
100% agreed. Sea World's egregious immoral practice of stealing helpless orca calves from the wild and relegating them to a pathetic tank for their entire lives should absolutely be considered a crime. The idea that they don't understand the fact that they're prisoners and miss ocean life is completely bunk. These things are smart enough to know what's going on, which is why they attack their trainers on occasion. Their frustrations and anger are completely relatable. They should all be free. Fuck Sea World
+Emmy Holguin Maybe it makes you feel better to watch whale videos because it reminds you that there are other things in this world that are fatter than you? **shrugs** Just a guess. I Google-search penises to remind myself that mine isn't so small.
In Chilean Patagonia they are everywhere, I am kayaking very often and is amazing when they start to play around you, at first was scary but then becomes something normal, but they never attack, amazing and beautiful animals.
Goibon udenlove freeing orcas doesn't work. They tried it with the orca from free willy. After a year of trying to acclimate it to being back in the wild they released it near the pod it originally came from. Instead of staying with the pod it immediately searched out human contact and ended up in a Norwegian harbor. The fishermen there were told not to feed the orca or they would get fined so the inevitable happened. The orca died of starvation.
Wow! Thank you for sharing this video with the world. Talk about once in a lifetime experiences! I saw this and felt intense happiness and sadness at the same time. I am so honored to live on this planet with creatures like this. WE are all very blessed to live on Earth. 1♡
In German we say Wunderschön (beautiful like a wonder). You could say "Behold , what a beautiful Universe God has made!"Nature is full of magic. Orcas are my soulanimals, Orcas and Butterflies XD Bioluminescence is also magical.
To be allowed to get that close to any animal is a moment that will last forever, what a privilege to be in their company.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wow!! This has got to be one of the coolest videos I have ever seen! Great job on this! Orcas are my favorite animals :) The music was extraordinarily beautiful too! 10/10
This is absolutely spectacular! Thank you for sharing this amazing experience. Is it a regular occurrence for you to see and interact with these beautiful animals in the wild? Snorkelling with Orcas off the coast of Norway is definitely on my bucket list. The kayaking thing would be great too.
Thank you for your comment and enthusiasm :). The orcas are here for the herring. They have arrived here for the last three years, during the months of December to mid February. There will also be humpback whale, fin whale and sperm whale. The sperm whale will be here all the time, but is far from shore. The best way to view them is from a whale safari boat. There are actually two whale safari operators here at Andoya. andenesseasafari.no and whalesafari.no
Atombrush yes! thank you for sharing. Everyone needs to take action online and pledge NOT to buy a ticket and sign petitions. Its overwhemingly heart throbbing to see them in the wild,so free at home. End captivity everyone. Dont buy a ticket to a marine park
A couple of months ago on the Gulf Coast of Florida I found myself kayaking in the middle of a dolphin orgy. It was fascinating , exhilarating and terrifying all at the same time .
@@rugby86 One of my arguments against Intelligent Design is that if God knew that I was going to spend as much time in and on the water as I do ,then he would have given me a blowhole
@@nickyl9040 Then god gave us the intelligence to invent snorkeling devices, and breathing apparatus for such wet adventures :) haha! Jokes aside, yes i get your point. If that were me, i would've made a huge brown cloud in the water. The coastguards might mistake it for an oil spill.
it's like such a simple act of orcas wandering up to see "hmm is this food? can we get food from this?" gets transformed into the elegant symphony of animal bonding with man. thanks youtube
I cannot believe that people are commenting about captive orcas. Can we just appreciate orcas in general? Captive or wild? I for one share a passion for orcas in zoos and aquariums, and wild. I wish more people would do the same. This is beautiful footage of orcas, though.
OH MY GOODNESS!!! SO FREAKIN GORGEOUS!!! Amazing encounter and perspective. I am working towards a career studying these awesome beings all over the world with their brilliantly diverse and intricate matrilines and diversification/similarities between all the different cultures/clans/ecotypes
Glad you liked it. There is a lot of orcas and humpback whales at this time of the year. January is probably the best month to see the whales from shore.
That is fantastic, so so lucky! Really hoping to visit/live in norway for a time studying this population (mostly after the herring aren't they?). Would be a dream come true to be with them whilst an aurora was visible too! Have you seen some of them? Another stunning phenomenon.
It looks as though one of them is a baby or a juvenile. They are the most curious. If you have a good experience with them when they are young then they will remember it. Orcas are indeed that intelligent.
Thanks for sharing this, it must have been an amazing experience. This video should be played to all those corporate mugs up at #Seaworld and all the rest of the parks that hold captive orcas
I'm thinking these orcas aren't playing with the kayakers. I think the light blue space in the water is a bait ball and they are feeding. The bait ball just happens to be under the kayakers.
I get it that Orcas don't feed on humans. However, were a swamped kayak'er in a black wetsuit mistaken for a seal by one of these guys, he could certainly take a pretty bite before realizing his mistake.
To answer a common question: Orcas don't see humans as food because (a) it's not in their evolutionary DNA and instinct and (b) they have distinct cultures and learn from their parents / pod members what to eat. Some Orcas pods eat only / mostly salmon. Others eat mostly / only larger sea mammals like seals, sea lions, etc. You could say they are like cats that way: picky eaters.
You mean resident orcas...they mainly eat salmon while transient orcas eat mammals and any other whales, offshore orca.?sharks maybe, hell if I know...
+LieorDie24 there have been zero killings of humans by orcas in the wild. Some "attacks" but they all seems to be more the whale being curious. Orcas have been saved people from sharks and drowning. And also, they're not whales, they're actually the largest members of the dolphin family.
how scary would it be if a couple orcsa made that wave they use to knock seals off ice, if they done that to the kayaker and he flipped over, they wuld pull him clean out the kayak and do him
1 recorded fatal incident on humans in captivity. 4 non fatal but still attacked. point is they could easily see us as toys in the wild, sitting on a cayak, just because they havent does not mean they wouldnt
marcus1642ad Only an Orca in captivity would attack a human...It drives them mad. People swim with Orcas everyday in the wild and there hasn't been an attack on a human ever. People who put these sea creatures in small tanks not even 200 feet across and teach them tricks etc. Are asking to be attacked by one. They can swim up to 100 miles per day. I doubt they get 3 in captivity.
If I see orcas coming to play with me, I would get heart attack right over there:) by d way it's a beautiful video. It's better than sea world shows because the orca wants to play with you willing..without any force
Orcas are not a threat to humans. They only attack if threatened, or stuck in a tank their whole lives and made to entertain humans.. If you respect them...they respect you.
With a wet suit I would be right in the water with them. They are far more gentle than dolphins, and possibly more intelligent than us on a level that I can't quite explain. Lets call it the "TRUE SIGHT FACTOR." It is almost as if they can peer into your soul and sense what you are inside.
I think you did a great job, thank you for sharing. The orcas are magnificent and your video is amazing, and the music is nice. Did you use an unmanned drone for the camera? Or a hang-glider? Would love to learn how you accomplished the above-sea angle.
It is just wonderful. There is so much beauty in this world we could all be nourished by this and feeling part of it. Instead we forget and we run after futile things like money, power, etc.....Thanks for sharing Ole.

Why go to SeaWorld when you can see these wonderful whales right there is the REAL sea world? #keepthemfree
Because you don't have to put your life at risk to see them at sea world
Zandri Rossouw Well then you dont see them. Tired of self entitled syndrome when it comes to wild animals/mammals
Zandri Rossouw You can see them in Washington State too. My comment wasn't directed at you specifically more to those who want to see them in captivity.
fuck seaworld animal abusers
Guys stop blaming Seaworld on everything for goodness sakes GRRRRRR
...I know wild orcas have never killed humans, but I'd probably be scared outta my mind in this scenario.
+Mathemagics still got to realize theyre a species of dolphins/whale and there harmless to humans
I also realize they weigh literally tons
No human on the receiving end of that would shrug it off
+Mathemagics I understand this and love them to be honest, I don't think I'd be very scared in a kayak, if I was in the water with them though D:
Daniel its the same. if those orcas were aggressive they could kill you even if you are on kayak.
No way to know that for sure, we do know there are no records of anyone being killed. Not sure that the Eskimo kept records though.
The kayakers don't have to worry about any sharks being in the area.
Exactly!
True
Id love to do this. I've never even been on a plane. I'm going to end up dying having never barely left my city.
I dont think I believe in sea world anymore, i believe orca's should be free.

I agree, Jeff. The video is incredible, but the fisheye lens just doesn't work for me.
Nice video))) Orcas don't kill people, it's people who kill them, catching them for aquaparks(((
It's just sick keeping them in those concrete boxes.
I would be SO excited and UNBELIEVABLY scared out of my mind! It certainly would be life changing.

The music is sublime and goes great with this video, props!
The music goes so well with the Orcas and Kayakers,
Between the video and the music I was crying during this. I would love to see orcas in the wild

Was lucky enough to film orca with a kayaker, and he swam with them, a couple days ago, on our channel. Norway looks beautiful, I want to visit.
So cool. I've kayaked with pods of dolphins but this is 1 step up from that.

I've had the same experience with pods of dolphins- Orcas are basically just big dolphins.
such a gorgeous animal!
The kayakers are protected from sharks attack. The best show better than sea world.
Whew, I'm just glad none of the kayakers was a dentist...;)

*Dady Orca* : How many times I say don't play with your food?
*Son Orca* : Dady I am not hungry !
i missed the "orcas playing with kayakers" part of this video...
By d way what's the name of the background music?
its darude sandstorm
one of the best instrumental music ever
great vid and music too!
Ohh man look the earth really is round, just much smaller hahaha.
I get it that Orcas don't feed on humans. However, were a swamped kayak'er in a black wetsuit mistaken for a seal by one of these guys, he could certainly take a pretty bite before realizing his mistake.

brownrage or it could be that there are two distinct species of orcas. Marine biologists have been debating that possibility over the past few years.

So the Orcas were playing with them or sizing them up for a meal?

these creatures are very curious and fearless
how scary would it be if a couple orcsa made that wave they use to knock seals off ice, if they done that to the kayaker and he flipped over, they wuld pull him clean out the kayak and do him
Problem is orcas dont attack humans, so that would never happen.
orcas have attacked humans tho, so your points invalid. do some research
No they have not. There are no records of orcas attacking humans in the wild.
1 recorded fatal incident on humans in captivity. 4 non fatal but still attacked. point is they could easily see us as toys in the wild, sitting on a cayak, just because they havent does not mean they wouldnt

It looked to me more like the kayaker got in the way of the orca' feeding. I really did not see any play at all.
Thank the lord for Orcas......and drones.
The camera distortion is awful. Couldn't finish it. One can not see anything well from this video.
Beautiful but the title is misleading. The orcas did not play with the Kayakers at all.

Same day (abit later) Orca was seen playing with tug boat/ferry, and was (later) seen floating on its belly (dead) from being hit by the propeller.
