Angry killer whales in the Atlantic Ocean north of the Portuguese city of Porto rammed a French yacht for 45 minutes and flooded it

The recording shows how the crew of the sinking yacht is watching a flock of eight-meter killer whales that surrounded the ship. Killer whales disabled the steering and made a hole in the side of the 12-meter yacht. The yacht quickly fills with water, soon it reaches the waist of four sailors. Their things are floating around. One of the crew members lies in a flooded cabin and desperately calls for help from the coast guard.

Boat skipper Elliott Boyard said he was at the helm and felt violent jolts after five or seven killer whales began ramming and biting the boat's steering.

The crew was eventually able to make it to shore in a lifeboat before the ship finally sank. By this time, the killer whales had fled the scene.

Scientists have documented an increase in killer whale incidents off the Atlantic coast of Spain and Portugal. Sailors in these regions have been warned to stay in port at night after shocking videos surfaced of killer whales attempting to sink ships. Killer whales attack small yachts in an organized manner and break them. Experts found that in 2020, three young killer whales, nicknamed Black Gladys, Gray Gladys and White Gladys, participated in all attacks.
