This made me sad. It was a bitter/sweet day when he left the Oregon Coast Aquarium for Iceland. I knew Keiko and loved him. He was my friend and I was fortunate to get to play with him every day at the Oregon Coast Aquarium. I'd like to see his resting place someday. It breaks my heart how he died. I truly believe that he died from a broken heart. I know that he had pneumonia but I believe it was brought on by his loneliness. He loved people so much. Too bad they just didn't let him stay in the big bay pen in Iceland and take him for walks daily instead of just cutting it with him towards the end. But I know that they were under a lot of pressure to make this work and I know they wanted him to find his family but he just wanted to be with people. He was like a giant puppy. He was really special. R.I.P. big guy. I know you are swimming in the oceans of heaven with your family.
Hi. I agree with you that he died from a broken heart. When he arrived in Norway, he appeared in front of a boat with children on board. They were fishing. When they saw him, they got scared and went back to the marina and Keiko followed them there. The children jumped and then swam with him. They, at that time, didn't know it was the famous Free Willy.
I wrote a long post about Keiko on my FB (in my native language) and I cried many times while writing it. Happy to know that my short video has reached many people who had personally seen him.
@@eliasmayasadventures6503 You did a great job on your video. Thanks for posting it. When I found out that he died it just broke my heart.
Often people are crule but we can ready in fact that he was loved the world.over
I agree so sad .but I guess I'm glad that most of his encounters with people were pleasant. And full of love For him .
My childhood, best movies, I loved him and he passed on my birthday
Rest in Peace Keiko. You will always be remembered and loved. 🙏🏻🐳💖💖💖💖🕊
Keiko was a beautiful whale, I do miss him a lot. He's my favorite whale, which I do love orcas. Rest in Peace, Keiko, big guy.
I am 28 years old and just to see this video made me cry when I was a little girl I would watch all the movies about him and even had a stuffed free willy I would sleep with at night thinking he would keep me safe being in my room alone I will always love u willy rest in peace
30 years old now, and my family still say how much I loved him as a child , rip keiko ,just wish they never let him out the pen he loved people, 20 years around people everyday and they in the big open sea on his own ,i think he die of a broken heart , hopefully his happy now
He will always be Willy to me. RIP sweet boy!! The world truly loves and misses you!!
See you on the other side, Keiko. Thank you for your mission.
I'm 24 and grew up with the Free Willy movies. I will go there some day to pay my respects. Rest easy Keiko. 'Till Valhalla
What a loved orca. Think about all he’s been through and how many times he was moved. He lived longer when he was rescued than before the movie. Yes it stinks he didn’t see his family and was held captive for all these years but think he got 5 years of ocean. He swam with wild orcas.
This made me very emotional. Beautiful video. He is finally free and happy! I’m 35 years old, I visited him a few times as a kid in reino ventura (six flags) in Mexico City. He was a huge part of my childhood with free Willy as well ❤️
Goodbye Willy thanks for being part of my childhood forever im 25 years old now so thank you and you always been free
Mine Too. 😢
A legacy that stands above all legacies in history
I believe we all get to chose our own real homes..somewhere we can grieve and grow and just be free. He obviously found this for himself. Such a spiritual creature. Happy for you keiko. Such a beautiful resting place. Swim free laddy
How sad story,Keiko,you are already free,Rest in Peace!At least,people in Iceland,bury you,with love,you'll always be remembered❤❤❤
Made me very sad that he passed, after all the fight it was to get him finally free😪 but at least he was free and got to live and swim as he so chose. we will all always kiss and love him🌹❤️🙏😪 RIP KEIKO, you were loved by so many.
Such a Beautiful place! He chose his Forever home well!! So thankful that he is now free! We love you Willy!❤️❤️❤️❤️USA
Rest in peace Keiko you will be missed
this video made me cry, thank you for sharing!
Keiko orca best orca
RIP to this beloved gentle giant, he’s dearly missed.
Long live keiko, the one true Willy
This has me bawling my eyes out, I had only ever seen close up photos never the surrounding area, so now seeing just what a beautiful place it is where he was laid to rest makes me cry, what an absolutely beautiful and peaceful resting place, may you forever sleep in peace Keiko, my heart will always be your home, your ocean 🤍 🖤 🤍 thank you so much for sharing your visit to Keiko’s resting place with us 💙
Bawling* 😛
@@englishatheart 😬 oopzy, a didnt even realise, thank you for pointing it out 😀 I’ve corrected it ✅
Another example how cruel some people are Keiko born free but some greedy individuals violent trap him and separate him from his family forever to go to a pool to perform and do treats. Sad really sad unfortunately are too many like him .
True. i think it is time now that we stop using animals for our so called entertainment.
@@eliasmayasadventures6503 i hate zoos and amusement parks..they capture wildlife animals when they should just be left alone. nice vid..sad but thanks for sharing
@@eliasmayasadventures6503 we must do what we can to help innocent orcas like keiko
This is why I refuse to visit Sea World or any aquatic zoo like them and that includes Disney.
@@donmor8029 sadly zoos are where certain species are safest. Tigers, elephants, and rhinod for example
awww thank you so much for sharing this! I might visit his grave in the future :) I got the chance to see him in Mexico as a kid.
This is so sad. I detest the part of humanity that believes we are superior to beings such as Keiko. We are not. We are all earthlings. Humans had no right to rip Keiko from the waters near Iceland and keep him in some small tank for decades. What a tragedy.
#FreeKiska
i agree with you.
This made me cry, such a beautiful video! R.I.P Keiko ❤️❤️
He was my big guy growing up… forever 🫶🏽 you!
Thank you for this video. Planning to go there too. RIP Keiko ❤❤❤
Even though he never fully became wild again, at least when Keiko died, the whale, that we once knew as Willy, was free.
Thank you so much for this❤❤❤❤
Thanks for sharing, it seems he lived in a very beautiful place.
Beautiful memorium for Keiko. Very sad story. Rest in peace sweet Keiko. Your memory will live forever❤😢
Thank you for this video 💔🙏
I truly believe it was Keiko story that started it all in Free Willy then the movement to set him free. Decades later I can't believe that all countries haven't banned cetacean captivity #promisetonotbuyaticket #emptythetanks
Awe this is sad you are missed so much .RIP Keiko
Thank you for this video
He was lost. He could not find his original family and no other pod would accept him. It is very sad but at least he was able to enjoy freedom and go where he wanted to go. Freedom, being able to make your own choices is great. Hope he had some happiness.
Homeless people and stray animals are "free". Do you think they are happy? Walk up and ask one. Noblesse Oblige.
Free Willy for me is my definitive childhood film. It probably remains my most favorite film and I’m 17 now. I feel like I have a connection with him despite never actually getting to see him alive and only finding out about him after his death. Thinking about him and how he passed away and is gone legit makes me sad and cry mind you I’m a 17 year old teenage boy. I just hope he knew we loved him and passed away knowing that and that people fought for him. I hope he found some sorta peace and I hope he’s up there in the skies swimming God looking down smiling
I miss him so much
Beautiful!!
Unfortunately this is only his memorial place ( Halsa) the exact place where they buried him they don’t wanna say because they wanna let him rest in peace. It close by this place but it was a meadow they said. And only 7 people knew where is it exactly. Rest in peace my old friend from my childhood ❤ greetings from Germany 🇩🇪
lovely video
I really anyjoyed This video somuch and allso the movie somuch when I was a Young Boy free Willy keiko may you rest in peace
Rest in peace, Keiko the loving animal that ever existed ❤❤ 😢😢
"Honouring" him by taking selfies. That would be disrespectful in any cemetery.
U a the best
When people think their doing right, but really hurting instead🥺
Keiko's grave in Norway is like visiting the tomb of a famous person, like Jim Morrison's tomb in Pere Lachaise of Paris, France. Keiko's grave should be one of Norway's famous landmarks.
Terrible comparison. Keiko wasn't a hippie drug addict waste of space.
His cairn is a cautionary tale. An animal raised in human care should not be abandoned in the wild to fend for itself, alone. We are responsible for them for their entire lives.
Never Again.
3:00 Was he actually buried by those rocks?
Yes, it is an old Viking tradition to bury under stones.
Very freaking sad love keiko
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
R.i.p keiko
That poor whale.
I hope I can make my dream come true and visit him next year, I'm already planning the trip, I'm from Mexico, thank you for uploading this video. Is the road dangerous with all the snow while driving?
It depends. If you drive from Kristiansund, it should be ok. It's just a short drive from there.
@@eliasmayasadventures6503 thank you so much!!
He is not there. Funny how careful we are with someone after they're dead.
I watched it movie every night
Why would they bury him like that either stones all over him makes me cry R.I.P big man
He was buried according to the viking tradition.
I Can't Wait To Visit Keiko's Grave In Norway And Pay My Respect To Free Willy's Grave In Norway On December 12 2023 Will Be The 20th Anniversary Date When Keiko The Orca Whale Passed Away On December 12 2003 And May Keiko The Orca Whale Rest In Peace and May Keiko The Orca Whale Enjoy His Freedom In Heaven In Jesus Name Amen 🙏and I Hope Keiko The Orca Whale Is Enjoying His Freedom In Heaven With His Father and Lord and Savior Jesus Christ In Jesus Name Amen 🙏
It's a pile of rocks hiding the guilt of the people who failed him.
That pile looks small...Keiko was pretty big, so I have a couple of questions :/
That is just the "grave Marker" I think. Keiko's body is presumably buried several feet under ground and the rocks just mark where his grave is.
May Keiko The Orca Whale Rest In Peace Forever and May God Rest His Soul and May Keiko The Orca Whale Watch Over The Orca Whales From Heaven Today Is The 20TH Anniversary Date December 12 2023 20 Years After Keiko The Orca Whale Passed Away He Is Now An Guardian Angel In Heaven
💖🐳💖😢
🐳👏🏾💙
At least his last days were in a place of beauty & he could leave if he wanted to!
I used to go to Sea World. The last time I was there we were so excited at Dining with Shamu.
Our guest trainer...Dawn. A week later she was killed by Tillicum!
As I watched Blackfish, I knew, what had been done was WRONG!!
I also no longer go to any circuses!!
Tillikum never harmed another trainer at SeaWorld, before or after Dawn. That speaks volumes. She trained Alex Fernandez. 1+1=2.
What is the exact location of this place? I will like to visit and pay my respects. I grew up with keiko watching free willy i am now 33 years old. Brings back so many memories
From my research, the grave is here:
Fylkesveg 352 60
Taknesbukta
6683 Vågland, Norway
I THINK the closest airport is Kristiansund. Best bet is call the Norwegian embassy in your country. They would know.
Yes, the closest airport is Kristiansund. Sorry for the late reply. I didn't get notification for it
How can someone go there from outside the country?
You can take a flight to Kristiansund, Norway. From there you can drive. Takes around 30 mins from the town center to Keiko's grave. But you have to wait until covid restriction is over.
@@eliasmayasadventures6503 thank you
Can you tell me where it exactly is? Because I'm going to Norway also and wanna to visit his grave 😢
it is near Kristiansund, Norway. U can take a flight there, then can drive to the site.
Orcas are the biggest dolphins
Where is he loacted?
Taknes Bay, Halsa kommune, Møre og Romsdal, Norway
Wouldn’t his body area be larger then that? Proof he’s using er the rubble or did they actually dig a hole and bury him?
I don't know but they gave him a traditional viking burial
Iyou didnt say the town or country
Sorry about that. It is in Norway 😊
It's in Hansa. I am in Norway now. Restrictions are over if you had your injections.
How do they know it was that whale?
Keiko's dorsal fin drooped over instead of standing straight up, the same with this so they just knew it was him.
Also he had three freckles on his chin
Sad😞💔
So... keiko is burried there?
Yes 😊
Poor Keiko. How did he die ?
Pneumonia like symptoms
Pneumonia and a broken heart.
Pneumonia (probably from catching an infection from another wild orca he had no imune resistance to).
But by the time his caretakers realized he had such a severe infection, it was too late.
@@FinalLugiaGuardian 💔💔
Why didn’t they just let him be in the water to be food for the crabs?
I have no idea. But he was buried the viking way.
that's not a way to honor someones death
