They are equally dangerous, if you are in the wrong place at the wrong time and look like the pray, either one will take a taste.

Great white sharks are more dangerous to human beings than killer whales are. The large powerful shark is inquisitive and tries to find out what things are by biting them. The killer whale is more intelligent and the species is more likely to have communication between whales to identify what something is through any information passed along from one whale to another in a possible dialect, or through a greater ability of deductive reasoning to determine what something is, higher intelligence.
Great white sharks are not finicky eaters. Biologists have found license plates, tires, plastic bags, and all sorts of unusual items in their stomachs. Killer whales are much more fussy eaters by contrast and therefore less likely to try to eat a human.

I don't think that Killer Whales have ever attacked humans.
Sharks actually DO bite people from time to time (they are more stupid than whales, so they cannot always tell the difference between a human and a seal). So I would say, Great White Sharks.

I think Killer Whales (otherwise known as Orcas) are cool. I'd say Great White sharks are more dangerous. Killer Whales seem pretty calm around humans.

Niether are dangerous. Morfe peolple on earth every second means more people encroaching on there territory. If a Great White and a Killer Whale and a Baby Harp Seal were in your kitchen in the morning, wich would you shoot first. That tells you wich one you fear the most.

of the two? the shark, but pigs and dogs kill more people than either of those.
note: randy's opinion of sharks i think, is biased, sharks in fact, are not more stupid than whales, some are exteremley intelligent, they do not mistake us for seals because they are idiots but because on the surface, our shilouettes are too similar and easily mistakable.
