How do whirlpools end?
The plain answer is that they end when they run out of energy. So they simply stop then. But there are all kinds of whirlpools caused by all kinds of things. Which means there are all kinds of ways whirlpools can get and lose their energies. For example, there are whirlpools in your bathroom sink when you open the drain. They stop when the water is gone from the sink and so there is no longer a force of gravity acting on water to cause the whirlpools. There are whirlpools in the wake of a ship. They're called eddies, but they are still whirlpools. They stop when the ship stops because they were getting their energies from the ship's motion. Similarly there are whirlpools in running streams and rivers, they might stop if there is a change in flow or the river runs dry. So there you are. Whirlpools stop when they run out of energy.
What are a few famous natural whirlpools?

How many people die from whirlpools?
Whirlpools are typically not a direct cause of death for people. While whirlpools can be dangerous in certain natural water bodies, such as rivers or oceans, fatalities are more likely to result from drowning or other water-related accidents rather than specifically from the whirlpool itself. It is important for individuals to exercise caution around whirlpools and fast-moving water to prevent accidents and ensure their safety.
What are whirlpools made from?
Whirlpools are made from the natural movement of water caused by tides, currents, or the shape of the seabed. They can also be formed by the interaction of opposing currents or winds or by underwater geographical features like rocks or reefs that disrupt the flow of water.

Are underwater tornadoes a regular ocurrance?
Technically, there is no such thing as an underwater tornado. By definition a tornado is a violently rotating column of air. A vortex underwater is called a whirlpool. Whirlpools are not like tornadoes, however. They are not nearly as violent and are usually harmless, though some stronger whirlpools can pose a threat to swimmers and small boats. Natural whirlpools can be observed in streams and at some tidal inlets.
Does a whirlpool kill?
