I won't enter the door of the ocean world anymore

It’s very unpleasant to watch. On the one hand, the greed of capital has tortured many ornamental animals, including killer whales, and sacrificed the lives of many trainers. On the other hand, it cannot be denied that it can cooperate with the performance and let the audience touch and explain. Their brain evolution is closer to humans, and they can indeed establish a certain connection with humans. This is also the basis for making money with performances.
And killer whales also have cognition and community awareness (unbelievably, there are also bullying rules), so various inhuman measures in the ocean world, such as separating mother and child, putting together different ethnic groups, and each All kinds of punishments, small spaces, and day-to-day repetitive performances make them frustrated and irritable, which leads to tragedies.
The real recorded footage inside is very touching and shocking. You can see the intimate play between them and the trainer, the malicious molesting, attack and even biting of the trainer. One of the experienced trainers was bitten by a killer whale. They calmly dragged into the water and finally let their mouths escape. They are not driven to be crazy, but consciously use actions to express their own state, and when humans fall into the water, they have no resistance. Playing abuse by the killer whale makes people embarrassed. It was also sad to see their dorsal fins bent and collapsed because they were trapped in the ocean world, and they stood upright again when they finally returned to the ocean.
It is human stupidity, selfishness and greed to treat them as animals for watching animals, and the trainer who wants to establish a friendly relationship with the killer whale but cannot see the situation becomes the victim of capital. In short, there should not be a relationship between humans and non-domestic animals between controlling and being controlled, watching and being watched. Anyway, I will not enter the ocean world.

    Great use of archival footage and retrospective interviews. From scratch, people have been looking forward to and wondering when, how and why the known tragedy happened. Documentaries whose climax occurred in the past are hard to do well, but this one is a positive example.

Blackfish quotes

  • Whoopi Goldberg: We don't speak Whale.

  • Himself - OSHA Expert Witness, Whale Researcher: The First Nations people and the old fisherman on the coast, they call them "blackfish". They're an animal that possesses great spiritual power and they're not to be meddled with. I've spent a lot of time around killer whales and they're always in charge. I never get out of the boat and I never mess with them. The speed and power is quite amazing. Rule are the same as the pool hall - keep one foot on the floor at all times.
