The orca has been in captivity for 30 years. It was about as wild as I am.
This isn't a situation where we can draw comparisons with human behaviour.

Humans and orcas tend to live in different ecosystems, hence why you don't hear of them attacking humans like they do seals (when they beach themselves). If humans organized themselvs on rocks in the northern Pacific ocean, I am sure you'd see a lot more attacks on humans. To them, humans and seals are just big chunks of protein.
