SeaWorld guests were taken to a decontamination area of the park after an orca splashed poo at them.
A rather surprising video has surfaced showing a killer whale at SeaWorld relieving itself in the water before splashing its waste onto the audience.
Guests sitting in the splash zone for an orca show got way more than they anticipated when the playful whale leapt out of the water and came crashing down, sending quite an unpleasant surprise their way.

This incident took place at SeaWorld San Antonio in Texas, and among those caught in the splash was visitor Samantha King.
“It was shocking,” Samantha remarked, according to Times Now World.
She continued, “We expected to get wet sitting so close, but not like that. It smelled awful, and people were gagging.”
In the video footage, the orca is seen defecating near the surface of the water, which is visible through the glass of the enclosure. The whale then swims around and launches into the air.
The whale crashes back down into the water, and along with the splash, its poo is sent flying out of the pool and onto the spectators.
In the clip, a young boy is seen turning to the camera, clearly shocked and disgusted after getting hit by the unfortunate splash. He looked pretty shaken up by the whole ordeal.
The video quickly went viral, with people having mixed reactions to what happened.
One Twitter user commented, “The whale knows. It’s trying to tell everyone that it’s tired of jumping for everyone.”
Another wrote, “All orcas belong in the wild.”
Someone else added, “Orcas are incredibly smart. It knew exactly what he did.”
It turns out these comments aren’t far off. According to Orca Torch, orcas have an impressive IQ, comparable to that of a 15 or 16-year-old human, with their brains weighing up to 15 pounds.
However, not everyone was upset about the incident. Some people found humor in the situation.
One person joked on Twitter, “The ultimate troll.”
Another user chimed in, “Lol. homeboy looks horrified.”
And someone else posted, “This is the most Sam Antonio thing I’ve ever seen.”
After the incident, those who had been splashed were reportedly taken to a special decontamination area in the park, where they were provided with soap, towels, and bottled water to clean up.
SeaWorld issued a statement following the event: “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.”
