    Killer Whales were probably Tory ones wanting to stop illegal immigrant whales from nicking their fish and benefitting

    Aye, attacking something for 6 hours, then letting it get away sounds really clever.
    ;)

    Killer Whales are misnamed. The meaning got lost in translation. They're not Killer Whales, they're Whale Killers. Although, on this occasion, not so much.

    Phenomenal creatures. This doesn’t sound like something I want to watch though. Grey whales just as beautiful. I think I’d find it pretty stressful to watch.

    The clip in my post isn't bad, it isn't gory or anything or particularly distressing (or wasn't to me). I've seen a longer version though and like you found it quite stressful and stopped watching it.
