Like the video of a leopard seal trying to feed a diver a penguin and can't understand why he's not eating it.

if that's the video i'm thinking of, that was my uncle and he did not know he was supposed to be afraid of leopard seals.

May I ask for a link for this?

Fuck if I have it. My uncle was on a "Antarctic cruise", everyone else got out of the water and he didn't stop to think why. Up comes the leopard seal and he didn't do his prep work on going to Antarctica so he didn't think they were dangerous. Gets a really good close up video, sells it to natgeo because no one else is stupid enough to get that close to a leopard seal.

Can't find a video, gonna assume it's the video explaining this? Anyways found this article which was very cool to read: https://awesomeocean.com/guest-columns/natgeo-photographer-seal/
