One seal barely escaped becoming a midday meal for a dozen killer whales.

Kirk Fraser was out with family and friends on a boat looking for some whales when they came across a pod of 12 orcas. They got there just in time, too: A seal bolted for the boat to avoid becoming an afternoon snack. The seal struggled to get onboard because it was in such a panic but finally made it. 

You can watch the harrowing moment below, but be warning: The language is NSFW.

It apparently took 30 to 45 minutes for the whales to finally scram, which seems like a long time to wait, hoping that your meal swims back to you. Thankfully the group of bullies didn’t try rocking the ship or anything.
