@inthemouth_of_madness: Dawn Therese Brancheau (April 16, 1969 – February 24, 2010) was an American animal trainer at SeaWorld. She worked with orcas at SeaWorld Orlando for fifteen years. She was killed by an orca, Tilikum. Tilikum was also involved in the deaths of two other people: Keltie Byrne and Daniel P. Dukes. On February 24, 2010, Brancheau performed a « Dine with Shamu » show with Tilikum, the largest orca at SeaWorld Orlando. In this setting, guests ate at an open-air restaurant while watching the performance poolside as the orca performed and was fed. As part of the end-of-show routine, she was at the edge of the pool, rubbing Tilikum's head. She was lying with her face next to Tilikum's on a slide-out, which is a platform submerged about a foot into the water. She was pulled into the water by her left arm. The incident was caught on film. Some witnesses reported seeing Tilikum grab Brancheau by the ponytail or shoulder. The orca's move seems to have been very quick, pulling her underwater and drowning her. At least a dozen patrons witnessed Brancheau in the water with Tilikum. Employees used nets and threw food in the water in an attempt to distract him. Moving from pool to pool in the complex, they eventually directed Tilikum to a smaller, medical pool, where it would be easier to calm him. After approximately 45 minutes, Tilikum released Brancheau's body. The autopsy report said that Brancheau died from drowning and blunt force trauma. Her spinal cord was severed, and she had sustained fractures to her jawbone, ribs, and a cervical vertebra. Her scalp was completely torn off from her head, and her left elbow and left knee had been dislocated. #fyp #fypシ #disturbing #dawnbrancheau #horror #scary #orcaattack #killerwhale #deepdive

Tilikum had a history of violence towards humans. No trainer should’ve been allowed in the water. Sea world ignored it.

People fail to realize that animal can endure trauma to ! Tilikum was abused by an old trainer and other orcas. Put in isolation.

Rest in Peace Tilikum. Tili was captured in 1983 as a calf & mistreated for 33 years until 2017 when he passed away from a lung infection 🥺

Blackfish was traumatizing. I had to take breaks in order to make it through. So, so incredibly sad. Humans suck.

I was just at Seaworld, two weekends ago, and the whale started, banging his head against the glass. It was pretty sad to watch.

The lady on the ohone seems more upset that her employee is in the water than the fact shes in danger

After I watched black fish, I judge those who attend sea world. Those animals belong in the ocean, not in a puddle of water.

I remember seeing Shamu at SeaWorld in the eighties and as a 5 yr old knew it wasn't right to keep those babies locked up.

It's not the trainers fault but it also isn't tilikum's fault. Sea world is a terrible place and he is a wild animal,not meant to be in captivity
