0:00 ants make bridges and Towers to like get ants make rope basically 100 coyotes making ladder it's over for us jump over walls though they're like pretty all right something really spooky is happening off of the Iberian Coast do you know what the Iberian Coast is because when I read that I didn't know it's like Spain and Portugal yes what the ████ I was thinking Iberia Iberia what's that by the coast I would have been on Iberia yeah me too sounds unbelievable something really really spooky is happening with the whales do you know what it is I know uh yeah it's these it's the orcas so the killer whales for some weird reason it it appears to be that they are teaching each other how to sink boats there's footage of like guys in like

0:51 fishing boats the small little speed boats and then the killer whales are just following them like dolphins right next to them and they're trying to go in and like Bam put their body on top dude have you seen them kill dolphins it's gangster crazy it's pretty sadistic they're really smart really really smart they're gangsters and it's so methodical right it's like it's kind of really scary so imagine they're doing that's a boat it looks like they're toying with their prey kind of deals yeah have you guys seen them trying to kill a seal so there's one where it's like a seal within the water and then though it's chasing after the seal so the seal jumps out of the water onto the snow and then so now it's like watering on the snow the killer whales go underneath the snow and start swimming like this so it breaks up the snow so like now the snow is like rocking and turning into pieces and now the seal is stuck on like a little piece of snow and it has to go

1:41 back in the water and then that's when it comes and kills it like they know how to strategize it surrounders kill whales too so there's hundreds of different accounts of this happening and the tech the tactic is all the same where the it'll be like one uh in the Pod of orcas like a lead whale will be like hitting the I think the whole the side of it and then the other two are gonna take the rudder out wait get the ████ out of here plus the ship yeah it's the same technique so it's tough they're saying that one like ring leader was teaching a group and then they'll teach each other and they've identified which one it is wow they like named it and everything but apparently does that have a cool name the theory I don't think it's that cool damn it that's crazy because it wasn't meant to have a killer name they didn't I don't think it would be a killer Lionel the leader I think this is like Albert or something do you think this is

2:31 part of like mother nature fighting back against us for what we're doing to the planet and ████ because I was watching a video recently or a bear ordered a pizza the bear had the pizza delivered to a home and then the bear consumed the pizza delivery whoa that sounds so made up there's no need pizza damn it's like Uber Eats you're not gonna even believe what just happened I'm telling you it's like the Bears are just ordering people to eat but they know that little hat wow what a hat so to answer your question the name of that Orca is white Gladys and the theme the theory is that they believe white Gladys experienced some kind of Trauma from being hit by a boat or something and decided to like fight back and the other orcas saw it and are thinking like that's pretty tight they thought it was

3:21 a teachable moment so they think now it went viral this craze of sinking is the captain blind and he has two scars over his eyes he's like Moby Dick he's like we learned he's like they're coming for us and they're like Captain what the ████ you talking about he's like oh we have crossed we have crossed the ways with the whales they will come for us now and they're like Captain what the ████ are you talking about dude yeah I told you I warned you been some injuries but nobody's been killed like nothing's more serious than a day in the hospital so they just want to destroy the boat yeah they're it's against the boat it's like a thing where they see the boat and they'd start to destroy the boat communicate is crazy so we recently got a new dog so our current dog Mia she knows how to use our doggie door and she

4:11 goes in and out and then we got a new dog his name's Cooper and he's a little puppy and uh like Mia probably only goes in and out of the doggy door maybe like once or twice in the middle of the night like I can hear it and we were teaching Cooper the first day was at our house like how to like go pee pee like outside and um in the middle of the night I hear the doggy doors go like over and over like at least 20 times and I think it was me trying to teach Cooper how to use the doggie door he's demoing it and she was going out and then looking like are you gonna follow me are you gonna stay inside and so she probably came back inside go okay let's go and she goes back out and like are you gonna follow me because that's what the Rhythm sounded like yeah how is Mia to Cooper is it is it pretty cute it's really cute that's cute they love each other the day day one they've already already been like sleeping with each other like girl though so there's a

5:02 there's different theories on this one is that it's actually not likely that they're trying to teach each other to do this to hurt anybody they think it's fun yeah they said it's more likely it's just a form of play and they don't even see it as like rough houses they're not eating the people falling off no they're not they're not doing that but also they said that this happens a lot in nature where animals kind of take on this trend and then they just stop doing it it's a viral challenge it's like eating ice cream in the store and putting it it's a Blackout Challenge yeah there's like a tick tock for dolphins yeah yeah exactly yeah so they're not worried they just think like oh you could just die out milk jug I don't know if I imagined this or I actually read it but I thought it was like some baby orca got hurt by a Rudder or something and then it was a Revenge thing oh I mean it says the traumatized Orca was white Gladys I like The Milk Jug one where they smash The Milk Jug on the ground but only if it's a mom and pop

5:53 store if it's like a big box store like it's not as funny yeah it's not because they have insurance yeah yeah yeah but like seeing the mom and pop like know that they have to clean it all the ████ up ones that work there that's what kills me Korean owned that's so good it's my favorite yeah they yeah they think they they really narrowed it down to being white Gladys white Gladys I guess that's the one why white Gladys huh that's an interesting name I feel like she has a bigger backstory it's a girl I assume Gladys she's probably like raised in SeaWorld and then the trainer like caught her on a boat no that would be Shamu why Gladys sounds like a old southern shopkeeper she's the grumpy one yeah really or Not Free Willy like some of them think that it's like some scientists are saying like oh it's just a thing where one person was playing with the rudder of a ship not person sorry one orca and then the rest of them were like oh that looks fun and they all

6:43 just do it it's not like a it's like a nothing personal yeah like a trend it's just business yeah it's whale Mafia yeah it's business someone's rocking the boat exactly but they're now they're telling everyone like hey if you see a pot of orcas or whatever yeah yeah get him in an arm bar I wonder what will happen if you shut your boat off then are they just gonna keep circling you well maybe that's what what keeps them from attacking because it's just that they're just like maybe that's part of what identifies it as like a Target or like it hears it or something yeah maybe if it's just not on dude imagine if you're in that ████ boat though yeah because it says whistle that they just can't like stand that's like when people say like don't

7:34 move if there's a bear there and I'm like uh I'm gonna move yeah I'm gonna ████ run the boy's gonna try to Juke him out they think if the rudder is not mobile then it discourages them from wanting to play around with the ████ that sounds like a massive gift I think by the time you know that they're chasing you and then you turn it off it's already too late it's too late you're dead yeah you just gotta Harpoon the ████ as soon as you see them write it like jump on it and be like yeehaw oh it's like you want to ride me I'm gonna ride you that's so scary oh my God that's ████ scary dude dude or just have a why don't people just have like those ████ big beach balls because they love those oh dude they'll jump up Chuck the beach ball in there start chucking ████ six six thousand Beach Boys the guys on the boat are like having to Pump It Up hyperventilating

8:25 well ████ you know you know those what would be a scary thing for like let's say coyotes to teach each other each other's heads to get over the wall like like a zombie crazy ████ crazy you have to make bridges and Towers to like get ants make rope basically 100 coyotes making a ladder it's over for us jump over walls though they're like pretty dude my clients told me a really funny story about his dog he said he he wakes up early because he's in construction and uh his dad takes his little Chihuahua out and one day he heard his dad like crying in the front yard and he's speaking in Spanish like oh my God they got him they got him he runs out he's like what's happening he looks over he sees six coyotes on top of his dog oh my

9:16 God and they're all nipping at him they're all biting him and then his dad is on his knees like oh my God like just screaming and he's looking at his dad like what the ████ are you doing like do something so he runs up to the coyotes and he's trying to see if his dog is okay his dog is still alive but they're all like nipping at him right he kicks one of the coyotes in the face ████ yeah and they all scatter and they're all trying to like attack him because they're technically ████ exactly so they all run off and then he ████ and then they rushed the dog to the vet the the dog is completely fine the only reason why he survived was because he he had so much fat around his belly he was a patchy wallet he didn't puncture the wounds like they didn't puncture and then all the coyotes were fighting with each other to like bite them so like to see who got them and his dog had

10:06 like a full body cast and he was he was like in a cast for like a couple weeks and then he's fined out is that crazy six coyotes just surrounding your dog the bunch of Lion King and the hyenas they're not unionized yeah foreign [Music]
