Horror video has emerged showing the moment a trainer was attacked by two orcas

The trainer who’s become known as Tollison says she let out a “blood curdling” scream as the two beats grabbed her in front of horrified onlookers.

The incident took place at SeaWorld in San Diego more than 20 years ago but has since come to light as part of a documentary that is looking at orcas in captivity.

At the time, Tollison was sent to hospital with a fractured arm.

SeaWorld’s trainers are no longer able to swim with the massive mammals, in a move that dates back to 2010.

The park says it has the right policies in place to protect its staff and animals, and has lashed out at Tollison for not following safety protocols in place at the time.

Gold prices surge as central banks increase demand; risks include a stronger dollar and rising interest rates.


Gold prices are climbing fast as central banks ramp up buying, pushing demand to its highest levels in years. The metal’s reputation as a safe haven is strengthening, especially amid rising geopolitical tensions and global financial uncertainty.

But experts warn the shine could fade. A stronger US dollar and the possibility of rising interest rates may weigh on momentum, making investors question how long the rally can last.

Dr Steven Enticott from CIA Tax breaks down the drivers behind gold’s surge—from ETF inflows to physical bar demand—and what could send the price sharply higher… or lower.

U.S. and Ukrainian negotiators progress in Geneva on a peace plan amid Russian strikes and geopolitical tensions.


U.S. and Ukrainian negotiators have made meaningful progress in Geneva, shaping an updated peace plan despite continued Russian strikes and growing geopolitical pressure. The talks represent one of the most significant diplomatic pushes in months as both nations work to narrow the remaining gaps in the framework.

While the proposal is being hailed as a breakthrough by some, leaders in Kyiv and parts of Europe fear it may tilt in Russia’s favour. Sensitive issues, security guarantees, and the controversial details of a leaked U.S. draft are now fuelling debate on both sides of the Atlantic.

With U.S. senators divided and European leaders deeply involved, the next steps will determine whether this framework becomes a workable path to peace or sparks further tension.
