>The key word is "can". In theory. It has never happened, because although certain humans have decided that swimming right next to the largest predator that ever lived is a rational thing to do, no human has ever been killed by it.
Blue whales are technically predators although they eat krill and very small fish. Also extraordinarily loud. It's not known how blue whales generate such loud sounds without injuring or ar least deafening themselves.
