Incredible. Just think how much energy it takes to accelerate 16,000 pounds upwards through water to get 15 feet up in the air. It’s no wonder the orca was persistent. If you’re expending those kinds of calories when you hunt, you’ve got to score.

I just can’t imagine the strength that required! Propel THAT up through water and airborne? After he had been exerting himself for 2 hours? How high could he jump when he was ‘fresh’ for the hunt???!!!
