Whoa! Kooky Man Body Slams Orca With Baby And Miraculously Lives To Tell The Story And Pay The Fine

50-year-old man fined $600 for bodyslamming a Killer Whale off the coast of New Zealand. The orca was swimming with a calf when the man decided to jump off the boat. "I touched it!" the man said. According to the Department of Conservation, the man could have been killed. "Orca are immensely powerful animals, and this really could have ended horribly, with either the startled whale being injured, or the man responsible being harmed by the aggravated animal," they said. The Auckland man was fined $600 after video of the incident spread online.
