Orcas Surround New Zealand Woman In Stunning Drone Footage
December 14, 2018
Incredible drone footage has emerged of the moment a swimmer found herself surrounded by a curious pod of orcas.
Judie Johnson, in her 60s, was swimming alone at Hahei Beach last week when three curious orcas approached her in the water.
"There was a shape that went under me, like a huge shape and I thought [it was] dolphins and I was quite excited, and then I saw the great white color on the back. I was also thinking they eat seals and I'm in a black wetsuit," Johnson told 1 News.
Johnson says she remembers gazing directly into the adult orca's huge eyes, her fear quickly turning to joy.
"It was so different to anything that’s happened to me before, and I thought, no, this is a life-changing experience."
