An amazing video has emerged of an an encounter between two kayakers and a killer whale off the coast of Northland, New Zealand. <br /><br />The footage, captured on March 24, shows the animal rising to the surface and nearly colliding with one of the kayakers. <br /><br />''My wife and I came across three orcas in Tauranga Bay. A large male, a female and a calf,'' the filmer later wrote online. <br /><br />''The calf especially was quite interested in us and came very very close a couple of times but without touching the kayaks at all.''<br /><br />''It was indeed scary and although I don't believe they would ever do anything harmful they are just so big and could have done with us as they liked,'' he continued.<br /><br />''A couple of time one came swimming right towards the kayak and I was sure they would bump into us but each time they just rolled gently to one side and slid gracefully right under the kayak without touching it.''
