SAN DIEGO -- Divers on a spearfishing trip encountered a pod of at least five orcas - one of them doing a body roll just feet from their boat.

One of the divers says the orcas - more commonly known as killer whales - continued their show off the San Diego coast for about ten minutes.

Even though the divers didn't find the tuna they were looking for, the group says their up-close-and-personal show made for an awesome day.
