Deep Source: Sea World Tragedies Caught on Tape

THIS IS HOW IT'S DONE Dolphins The incident yesterday in which dolphins Tyler and Sharky collided at Orlando, Florida, SeaWorld park Discovery Cove in a spectacular mid-air mammalian chest bump-gone-wrong was captured on video by the park, according to RadarOnline.com's knowledgeable dolphin/whale source. SeaWorld is obviously keeping the footage tight. Still, with 32 tourists said to be swimming in the cove at the time of the accident, someone else likely got something on camera. Trainers reportedly performed mouth-to-blowhole resuscitation unsuccessfully.
This isn't the first time the park has captured its watery friends in their gory glory, added our Cetacean source. The park also allegedly has video of a 1999 incident in which a transient man sneaked into SeaWorld after hours, stripped down, and took a dip with a killer whale. He was found drowned with his genitals bitten off.
So ... either one of those videos ... we'll take 'em here.
