Fisherman beside himself during rare encounter with ‘massive' orcas off Hawaii
A Hawaii-based fisherman has shared stunning footage of his brief encounter with two 'massive' orcas this week, along with an apology for cussing.
Dalton Umayam's unmuted footage is not posted below because of his profane commentary, but those who wish to view the footage can click on this Instagram link. It shows both orcas alongside his boat off the Kona Coast. (Orca sightings off Hawaii are extremely rare.)
Umayam's description: 'Sorry for the cussing. Adrenaline is pumping. [My] 16-foot boat feels so small next to these huge creatures.'

The footage was featured by local media outlets, which dubbed over Umayam's commentary. The Hawaii News Report version is posted below.
Those who aren't offended by salty language might wish to compare both clips to determine which is more compelling.
