'Like Watching a Thriller': Terrified Penguin Seeks Help from Tourists To Escape Killer Whales

In Antarctica, a penguin was caught on camera swimming right into a boat full of tourists to flee a herd of killer whales.

The majority of whale species are not considered to consume penguins. However, Orcas, also known as killer whales, are an exception. Both the Arctic and the Antarctic are home to these toothed marine mammals. These killer whales are known for hunting and eating smaller animals like penguins.

Capturing "Interesting" Events

Ever since cameras were invented, many "interesting" events have been documented. Things that the pre-camera world would find hard to believe.

As technology continued to progress, capturing images improved into recording videos, and the devices used to do such things have also become more accessible.

Now that portable cameras and smartphones are a thing, more and more "interesting" events have been recorded, leading to a plethora of cynics and doubters whether the recordings were natural and untampered.

But, despite the waves of "fake" footage surfacing in the world, many still consider the usage of such devices magnificent because of its capability to record unbelievable moments, just like the penguin escaping the pod of killer whales.
