effn died. lol.

Yeah, lets not blame the Orca here. He's just doin what he gotta do to keep his sea cred up. If you mess with fire you might get burned. If you mess with killer whales that are overworked and underpaid you might get killed. Sad for the lady to die like that though.
I wonder if she got yolked like Samuel L. Jackson in Deep Blue Sea. It was funny in the movie. Probably not so much in real life.
I like Manatee (sp?) much better than whales. They look like big potatoes. lol.

They are called "killer whales" because they kill whales.

So shouldn't that be "whale killers?"

A mistake by trainer Dawn Brancheau prompted a killer whale to drag her into the water to her death, a former mentor of Brancheau's said today.

"Dawn, if she was standing here with me, would tell you that it was her mistake that it happened," Thad Lacinak, former head trainer at SeaWorld and Brancheau's teacher, told "Good Morning America." "Dawn was one of the best killer whale trainers I've ever worked with. ... It looks like she made the mistake."

Lacinak said Brancheau was apparently lying down in a 4-inch "slide out" that trainers are meant to stand on while interacting with the whale when her ponytail drifted toward the mouth of the 12,000-pound animal.

"He pulled her in by the ponytail," Lacinak said. "I'm pretty sure it was her breaking protocol. ... Sometimes we get too comfortable working with these animals. Sometimes we forget what they are."

Brancheau, 40, an experienced trainer, was snatched by the whale in front of a stadium of horrified onlookers, thrashed and ultimately held under water to drown Wednesday.
