On February 24, 2010, SeaWorld Orlando orca trainer Dawn Brancheau was k!lled by the captive k!ller whale Tilikum during a “Dine with Shamu” show. She was interacting with him at the edge of the pool when he suddenly grabbed her—reports differ on whether by her ponytail, arm, or shoulder—and pulled her into the water, holding and thrashing her underwater for about 45 minutes. #analoghorror #truecrime #truestory #horrortok
