Whale Attack in TX

[NandP]

Did anyone see the whale attacking his trainer in SanAntonio Texas, Sea world?

MSNBC link to story

It was prety intense, glad the trainer is ok!!!


I often wondered about getting so close to those great animals!

It was on the news.
The whale jumped over the trainer a few times, he ducked.
Then he tried to get out of the water, but the whale came up and pushed him back towards the middle of the pool.
The whale eventually calmed down, and they made up.

They think the whale is about to breed, which caused the freeky behavior.

Yes I saw that on the news up here in the Boston area!
Glad the trainer was ok...i'm sure that sort of thing has happened behind the scenes, but its a little scarier when guests are there!
