SeaWorld orca poops in tank and then splashes it all over spectators

Attendees at SeaWorld San Antonio were left disgusted after an orca splashed them with more than just water from its tank.

A crowd was enjoying the park’s popular Orca Encounter Presentation event… until they weren’t.

A video of the event was shared on social media and showed an unnamed killer whale defecating in the tank, which can be seen through the glass window, in front of a live crowd.

The animal continued swimming after its little toilet session before completing an impressive high-flying manoeuvre that ended with guests being unexpectedly doused with freshly soiled water.

The clip then shows a boy, along with several other parkgoers, looking visibly traumatized and quickly fleeing the area.

Meanwhile, the whale continued with the performance because the show must go on.

Watch the incident below:

A guest named Samantha King spoke to Times Now World about the moment and said that “it was shocking”.

“We expected to get wet sitting so close, but not like that. It smelled awful, and people were gagging,” she added.

One user on X (formerly Twitter) was amused by the clip and quipped that the killer whale knew “exactly what it did” when it splashed on the attendees.

Another user agreed, and added: “Ocra’s are incredibly smart,” while a third brutally remarked: “If you go to Sea World, you deserve to get splashed with s**t.”

Visitors who were sprayed with giant swells of fresh whale poo were reportedly taken to a decontamination area of the park where they were given soap, towels, and bottled water.

Dr. Lisa Brown, a marine biologist specializing in the health of marine mammals, shared some concerns about the shocking event, stating: “Whale feces can contain bacteria, parasites, and other pathogens, especially in large marine animals that live in close quarters or are under stress.”

“It’s essential to prevent any direct contact with it, especially for people with compromised immune systems or those who have any cuts or scrapes,” she added.

Meanwhile, SeaWorld’s management issued a statement to guests, which read: “We regret this unfortunate event and are taking every step to ensure the safety and comfort of our guests.”

“Our team followed established protocols to minimize health risks and will review our procedures to prevent this from happening again,” they added.

And this, ladies and gentlemen, is why I don’t sit in the splash zones.
