Near Death Sea WorldSome scary footage has just been released of an incident that took place at SeaWorld back in 2006.

It seems a killer whale named Kasatka grabbed the foot of trainer Ken Peters and wouldn’t let go.  The whale dunks Peters underwater for prolonged periods of time.

Somehow keeping a cool head, Peters eventually manages to free himself from the killer whale’s clutches, only to have Kasatka then charge him over the barrier net.

The video was shown at trial in the case of SeaWorld v U.S. Secretary of Labor Hilda Solis. Judge Ken Welsch called the video “chilling.”
