A Man Among Orcas | Orca, Indian ocean | Wildlife documentary

Enduring raging winds and icy waters with minimal protection, he enters the intimacy of elephant seals and orcas using clever ethological analyses and gets them used to his presence. Then comes the extraordinary: meet a man who communicates with penguins with body language, calms young seals and turns them into live pillows, lies underwater with 8 ton orcas or mature male seals...

I'd like also to salute the second cameraman, that we never see but who is here everytime, even in the water with the "hero"...

He really ran over to get a ringside view when the elephant seals started fighting. What a madman. Top camera skills

[rachellewinters]

I adored the baby penguins following him around! How cute😍

I love how he can literally stand in the water while the orcas hunt seals, it shows that they really have no intetest in hurting humans. The only time they ever attack us if we put them in captivity and abuse them.

I am an old man. I enjoyed your documentary, because it provides an escape from aches and pain for a visit with Orcas, elephant Seals, penguins and the peace and serenity tell me life is so precious. Thank you so much. Bob from Clearwater, Fl.

The part when he is playing and hugging the seals was just amazing.

I knew elephant seals are big but seeing that guy close to them gives you a hell of a perspective 😮

Ok so when he was playing with the seal pup my heart just melted ! I can’t man ! 😢🥹🥹🥹

"Is she hoping to catch my seal friend?" paralyzed me. This documentary is truly wholesome because he put his feelings into it.

[Scruffers]

That was the best 52 minutes on YouTube that I've seen in a long time.

I didn't realize how dangerous and enormous the male elephant seals were until I saw the guy filming the fight scene. Great documentary.

The fact he kept his tent in the beach in the elements was hilarious but also I think this man really wanted to be and feel what they felt. True dedication to the job.

[Whistopher]

I love how the researcher is wondering what the whales think of him and the part of him chilling with all the penguins. The way he got upclose to that elephant seal fight! Wow what a great documentary

[YananoBere]

Now THIS is a top-notch nature documentary. So beautifully shot and narrated. Such a far cry from the mordern trend of egotistic hooligans who manhandle animals for ratings leaving then in distress. This is how it should be done. BRILLIANT 👌🏾

[edgarcal]

Orcas are just incredible. Perfection in every way. My favorite animal forever

[KyleB-]

The lack of humans is what makes this documentary. Absolutely beautiful.

[rondanorris]

One of my favorites was when he was scratching the seal's itch, took a nap & literally lying up against an elephant seal.
How kind. How human.

[RawDawgRandi]

Damn now I can’t stop thinking about cuddling up with some seals. He legit read a book, took a nap and played with wild seals. Life goals

[owefay]

If I were to experience this documentary in real life, Id consider my life fulfilled.

This man aiming to research orcas but end up befriended a seal pup 💖 how adorable
