NI surfer chased from water by pod of killer whales
It’s not every day you get up close and personal with Orcas – but that’s exactly what happened to one Northern Ireland man.
Ryan Vail was surfing in waters off Culdaff in Co Donegal on Friday when he was surrounded by a family (pod) of killer whales, one of which decided to chase him out of the water.
Ryan, a well-known Londonderry musician, told how it had been a relatively normal morning surfing when at around 11.30am, his friend Stef alerted him to something unusual in the water.
