Helping Out
In an interview, Julian explained that even if the animal were hazardous, he would still try to help it out. Thankfully in his case, the animal wasn’t a shark. However, it was an orca, or what many people know as a killer whale. He wasn’t totally safe as it could have flipped a tail and killed him! Fortunately, it did not do that, and the helpful diver wasn’t harmed.

A Top Marine Predator
According to the NOAA Fisheries, orcas, or the killer whales, are among the top marine predators. They can grow to 23 feet long, weigh up to 6 tons, and have teeth up to 4 inches long. They have a diverse diet, including fish and marine mammals. They may not be as big of a threat to humans as sharks are, but you should still keep your distance. However, Julian realized that there was something wrong with the creature, which is why he stepped in.
