A-Hole Meets Blow Hole

This is not Sea World -- some dude actually got this close to a Killer Whale while surfing in New Zealand this weekend ... and lived!


Fun Fact: The surfer told reporters he once saw a shark eat a girl, so the Orca didn't make him nervous. Who's ready to shred some waves?!

36. Orcas, or "killer" whales are not known to be dangerous to humans. Idiots

37. Orcas despite being called killer whales are actually not very aggressive animals. They usually only attack if they feel threatened and was is surprising here is that there is only one, orcas usually travel in groups.
