EDIT: I have been told multiple times that sometimes, drowning, once you get past the initial panic can be, apparently, peaceful. While researching, it never came to my mind that water filling your lungs would be pleasant so I never inquired about it further which I guess is my mistake for assuming, however, it does make the perceived eeriness that I talk about, imo, even stronger and had I known would be an interesting fact to include, besides that it doesn't change very much else about the video. Regardless all though it may seem like it, I never meant to imply drowning is the worst way to die (I even mention ways that would be worse beforehand) I simply use it as a transition to say is it "considerably unpleasant" which unfortunetly doesn't seem to be the case either. Thank you. Please stop telling me. Hello everyone yall seem to be enjoying the video but two quick things, at 25:22 I show some images of underwater statues and say they were put there "because why not" now obviously that was a sarcastic comment, maybe I could have made a better more insightful observation, but what some people have claimed is that the intention of these statues is to honor the victims of the Middle Passage slave trade from the West Africas to the Americas, now I don't look into the context behind every photo I use because I often use hundreds of images in one video, but criticizing me for making "insensitive remarks" while showing these statues I believe is a bit unfair, because upon further research the original intention of these statues was actually not to honor victims of the slave trade, even though the sculptures (especially the second set) may seem to suggest this by the shackles. This is a statement by the artist themselves: "It was never my intention to have any connection to the Middle passage. Although it was not my intention from the outset I am very encouraged how it has resonated differently within various communities and feel it is working as an art piece by questioning our identity, history and stimulating debate."- Jason d Caires Taylor. So while people are welcome to interpret the art that way, I believe since the sculptures original intention is not obvious, and that the original intention does not have any connection to the Middle Passage slave trade, I don't think it's fair to accuse me of not being sensitive to the context of these sculptures, when that original context was not actually intended by the artist. Now if I knew this association I obviously would have chosen less controversial sculptures, and if KZhead allowed me to edit in different images I would.
What a long comment😳
Woah, you literally posted this when I clicked on this video
That totally makes sense, sucks that anyone would make such accusations of you. Keep on making great videos!
Just ignore the snowflake. Keep making great content!
Solar Sands I don't know what to say. Your reply was so well put and honestly if some people are not happy with your statement, they won't be happy with anything else. So you can go home knowing you said what was right and put the trouble aside as there's nothing left to say.
what’s the worst way to die? slowly.
Drawn and quartered is probably the worst. Or being eaten asshole first by a hyena.
D e a t h r o w
@@jerms4070 I cant imagine
Burning to death is the worst way to die for me, but I have intense fear and anxiety whenever I am around any vast body of water
I’ve thought about this a lot, the best way to die slowly is probably hypothermia (you can’t feel anything for most of it) and the worst way would probably be drowning, Fire, or choking to death after an attempted hanging, but those are only the natural or self caused deaths, humans can do much worse
*swimming seaweed: *touched your foot a bit *current objective: survive*
No.
Relatable
Thats me
I’m used to swimming in canals and jumping off the back of my pop pops boat to swim, so it used to never bother me. Until what I though was sea weed was just a gator in the canal who decided to swim past me while I was snorkeling by the dock. Guess my skinny ass wasn’t a good snack. Ever since then I have refused to swim in a canal when I visit him in Florida.
"florida" understandable...
Here after the submersible incident of 2023. How anyone can go down into the depths of the ocean willingly, let alone in a glorified tin can is beyond me
And they used a photo of the Titan submercible in this video when talkin about the Titanic.
Came here to say this
Lmao fuck those guys, idk why everyone thinks that's such a big deal
lmao, the incident isnt funny, but yes i came to the comments to find someone saying something about the oceangate sub
It wasnt even a tincan. It was made from plastic
Tbh thalassophobia ties into megalophobia for me. It’s like a giant void of darkness under you, unimaginably huge. Going down is crazy scary
Omg I just commented the exact same thing😂😂 I have both and they feel rather similar to me
exactly
It can easily worm its way into your brain. I've been scuba diving for many years now, almost 20, and I still get the heeby jeebies. Like one time in Puerto Rico, there's a large cove safe to scuba in (safe as it can be anyway), but then there's just this abrupt and insanely deep drop off. It's sunshine and rainbows, then BLAM, jet black as far as you can see. Your imagination runs wild, fast. I sat on the edge and dangled my feet and legit could barely see my fins.
@@seansmith4513 wow..

@@spate7207 You could be rescued and resuscitated. Get the water out of your lungs. You were still drowning even if you survived.
@@arempy5836 Well yea but the definition of to drown is to die by being unable to breathe underwater
One of the main things I fear about the ocean is the fact that if you were stuck out at sea on a little raft, you couldn’t tell if you were 10 miles away from the coast of land, or in the middle of the ocean
And you don't know which direction leads to land faster
@@mozzarellasticks5178yeah like you could be a few km from the coast one way and a few thousand the other and have no idea which is which
I have extreme thalassophobia, to the point i can barely get into full bathtubs. I avoid large bodies of water as much as i can. I was taking a flight from Tokyo to San Francisco, almost exclusively entirely over the ocean. What got to me was five hours into the flight, i wake up from a nap to see everyone around me asleep. I looked out of the window and see nothing but blue, the sky was clear but i knew under me was nothing but water. I had a major panic attack just knowing that even though i was thousands of feet above the water. The thought of being over nothing but water for miles around just got to me. It's the worst feeling I've ever got.
Can you get over thalassophobia?
Had a similar experience while flying to cypress to see my dad. The airport we were landing at was practically right next to the water, I remember waking up a few minutes before we landed and looking out the window to see nothing but water basically 100-200 meters below me. Safe to say I freaked tf out thinking we were about to land in the water. Luckily about 30 seconds later we landed on land 😅
Think of it as a massive blue carpet
Sounds like you need a therapist tbqh
@@fbislif3 like most phobias, people can overcome them with a lot of work and dedication. Definitely reach out to a therapist that may specialize in this kind of work, just so it’s taken at a safe pace
What’s even worse is that the Nigerian guy reported that he was able to hear his crew mates bodies being devoured by sea life.
Damn.
Oh god
😱
Getting Subnautica vibes from this.
H-how does it sound like?.. 😥😥😥😰😰😰

A helpful tip for people who have thalassophobia but really want to experience swimming in the vast sea, go to the Dead Sea as there are no sea creatures in it and you can never drown due to high level of salt, completely safe for people who are concerned. Just make sure to not get it's extremely salty water in your eyes because it will burn A LOT.
Good suggestion lmao, but for me I get phobe'd out just from swimming in video games. Something tells me that even though nothing bad can happen to me in the Dead Sea, I'd still panic if I was floating and couldn't see the bottom.
ironic how the Dead Sea is very unlikely to kill you compared to most seas
@@trustytrest It's dead cause ain't nothing ever lived in there long enough to die 😂
Do NOT stay in longer than an hour as the tour guide may say to the tourists. The amount of salt in the sea with dry your skin out. Don’t swallow either. Don’t open your eyes. Simply lay on your back, and breath. You won’t sink as you do in pools. It’s peaceful, but maybe please have your phone next to a super loud speaker with your alarm set for 40 min. Never forget your own mortality people.
@@CosmicLunaa Is that actually true? Because me and my friends were swimming in it for more than an hour and we were totally fine so I don't know
Here's my scary water story (that still haunts me to this day). I used to go to Lake Michigan a lot with my family. Once, I was swimming and I got out a little further than the others. There was no one close by me, and no one in front of me - just the expanse of the lake. This is when, as I kicked my legs to keep afloat, my foot struck something. It's hard to describe how it felt, but I knew the feeling immediately. It was like when I was a kid and accidentally tripped over one of my siblings. The feeling of stepping on human flesh. That was what I kicked. I felt my foot land on it, the resistance of muscle and flesh rolling over the bone. I immediately panicked. It was like my brain instantly recognized that something was wrong. I remember getting to shore in a frenzy, then looking back. There was still no one in that area. No one came to the surface, no one was playing a prank on me. Whatever I felt, it was still down there. I didn't tell anyone what happened. Later, I saw the life guard speaking with a family, but I still don't know for sure what happened. I am convinced that I touched drowned corpse though. I told my family many years later, and someone suggested it was a fish or driftwood, but I simply can't believe that.
Something similar happened to me back in the 70's. Highschool friends were floating on rafts just beyond the breakers offshore Cocoa Beach. Most headed back to shore but I stayed treading water. Got to an area where I thought I could touch bottom and began stretching to try. On the third bounce my right foot touched on the upper thigh / low buttock of a man's body. Needless to say I practically walked on water to shore! The spot was within a mile or less from the pier
Holy shit.
Oh fuck
hopefully it wasn't a dead body being hidden :p
@@theoldworldkittenbro has the balls to make a :p face 💀
Title: Thalassophobia “Oh cool, what’s that?” *watches* “Oh cool, I have that now”
I can rest comfortable knowing that I will never go into the ocean because I don't feel like it and I probably won't even have the money to do it
I already did
Same
Honestly I nvr had this problem. But sometimes man, just in tht one second, where my minds starts flying everywhere and im out here swimmin in a river or the ocean. That one panic attack just might cost me my life. But shit i still love going into the water.
Yeah, I didn't like not being able to see the bottom, and deep underwater wrecks and whatnot did scare me, but then I watched this and omg I am never going anywhere near the ocean. Ever.

One of my worst fears is being teleported to the exact opposite location on Earth, which happens to be in the middle of the Indian Ocean with no land for close to a thousand miles. The thought of that, impossible as it is, never fails to send a chill down my spine.
FRRR
That happens to me too, for example, being in the shower and imagining being teleported to the deepest part of the catacombs of Paris.
@@Javi_LCpeople live in there too I heard and they aren’t friendly
The scariest moments in my life. I was working as a trucker a few years ago and a weekend I was in Denmark in a costal city. The weather was nice so I decided to go for a swim, I like to go away from the shore, I was swimming joyfully when all of a sudden I saw an enormous dark shadow moving beneath me. I immediately started swimming for the shore as fast as I could, my heart stopped I was so scared, close to the shore I stopped and put my head below the water to see what was, it was algee I think, I hope. I never felt so vulnerable
"Vulnerable" is the exact right word. Everytime I have been swimming in the ocean I am keenly aware that my human body isn't made for that environment at all, I know that if something were to come after me I wouldn't be able to get away or really do much to defend myself

@@LightskinKingSimp its a fact
What If you close your ears would that work?
I’ve always been fascinated at the thought of what the ocean would look like if the water was 100% transparent and you could see everything below the dark blue surface that you see from above. The vastness of the mountains and deep valleys underneath it, it terrifies me and it’s one of the reasons I’m afraid to actually go out into the ocean. The fear is falling off a ship or boat into the ocean and being left behind is a horrifying thought.
literally seconds after I left this comment you mentioned how you wish you could drain the ocean and explore its floor 😂
If the ocean was completely transparent it’d be so much less spooky, we should make this happen

My dad was really into SCUBA diving when he was younger. I remember him telling me a story a few times, of when he tried cave diving. I guess he got lost or something, and he thought he was going to die there. I remember that it really freaked him out. Next month will be exactly one year since my dad died. To say that I'm still a mess would be the understatement of the century. It didn't help that right before my dad died, my fiance's grandma died, so I was already taking care of my ex because she was so sad. Then, a week after both funerals, my now ex fiance abandoned me for some other guy, and I got fired from my job I'd had for almost five years the next week. On the bright side, I'm still clean from hard drugs. It's been just over 4.5 years since the last time I used, since the last time I shot up, and I did get a new job in November. I also discovered that exercising is a good way to cope with life. I'm still an emotional mess most of the time, and I still break down crying almost every day because I miss my dad so much and I still miss my ex fiance too.
I'm sorry man I hope you're doing okay now talk to me if you ever need it
Typical female nature. You tried to take care of her but as soon as you needed the same support she went out and found another. Sorry man. I’ve been off hard drugs for 4 years as well. 4 years ago, I was a nobody making $10 an hour and a complete mess. Today I’m making 6 figures and the happiest and the most stable I’ve ever been. Hard times don’t last forever unless you let them! Al this will pass.
Fuck that sounds terrible and im sorry about that. Time to get your cave diving certificates and go deeper into any cave, for your dad 💪
This was a rollercoaster. Keep going man ✊🏻
Stay strong brother Forget about that snake She does not worth your time Keep grinding
I rented a house on the beach in my younger 20's for a while and after playing music every night for a living, I would come home and swim out into the ocean until my house was just a couple of twinkling lights. I knew the bottom was around 80 ft. Deep but the fact that I wasn't scared was exactly why I continued to do it. I couldn't believe it didn't bother me! It was some of the most peaceful moments I can remember. Swimming back to the shore, showering off the salt water and sleeping like a baby. I was young and slightly adventurous I guess. Great video man! Keep em coming!
Im surprised you never saw any sharks... Or I should say felt any sharks since it was at night they were probably out there. Thats why I stopped surfing. A shark rubbed up against my leg, I saw its tail swimming away into the murky water. I've haven't been out ever since
@@bombomos Maybe that was a shark free shore.
I could never. LOL
I'm not scared of the shipwrecks, nor the statues, i'm scared of the emptyness, the feeling something is about to attack. The problem is, in water you can't run, you can't hide. Whatever is out there, is always faster than you.
Yes. Same. Shipwrecks and statues are kinda cool.

I have one re-occuring dream about rivers that are swamped by large, huge fish (like amazonian sweatwater fish, but much weirder) wich I can barely make out through the surface. In the dream I always stumble or fall into the water and feels the fish touching against me. Its not about attacking or them being dangerous, just an immense feeling of anxiety and unease.
I had a very similar recurring dream for years. Mine takes place in an endless ocean, and there are thousands of increasingly horrifying and large sea creatures that swim by. Many are fish/whale shaped, but are all slightly different and exist in a sort of uncanny valley. Some have faces. Some have none. I'm always just walking along an invisible seafloor, sureounded by ghastly, deformed fish and whales ranging from normal to animals the size of small cities. They never hurt me or pose any adversarial relationship to me, they're just there, swimming. I'm extremely thallasophobic, and it started right when I began having that dream hahaha
@@will4282 Interesting. Years after my own dreams, I remember getting hold of a Clive Barker-book called "The great and secret show" - the maincharacter have these re-occuring dreams about standing on a beach fronting a seashore with huge whale-like beasts roaming just below the surface. The story isnt specifically about that (moire like a sidestory) - but it connects well with this conversation. Might be worth checking out if your curious.
@@will4282 Sounds like Subnatica In a nutshell.

Eh it’s safe if you know what you’re doing. The instruction is very comprehensive and trained cave divers almost never have accidents. I plan on getting certified soon.
Rather, you’d need to have the right mind before you attempt it.

@@tenzinsmith7991 I’m glad you’re getting the necessary training. For me personally, I didn’t know how to swim most of my life, I had to teach myself.

So the thought of swimming inside a cave where you can’t always just go up for air, and where you can’t see, just terrifies me tbh.

Honestly, Im not scared of swimming in the shore or swimming in a pool. What scares me is that the water gets so dark at a point that it may be so deep and i don’t know what’s in it. And whatever it is, it’s stronger and faster than me. And the fact that you can’t run, can’t see under it and can drown if something pushes me down is TERRIFYING to me.
The incident on the West Virginia is why it was a relief when it was discovered that the Titan imploded rather than ran out of oxygen. Just waiting, knowing you were going to die, likely slowly, would be both physically and mentally excruciating.

I adore the way your thoughts flow through your video scripts. It's such an evaluative, yet conversational tone that piques interest upon the significance of perspective. Foremost, I'd call it "considerate".
i almost drowned when i was 7 at a local beach and the only reason im still here is because a guy who looked to be in his mid 30's jumped down into the water and pulled me up (my older sister who was watching over me didnt have enough strength to pull my weight), after realizing i was still alive i just stood there terrified of the water and before i could thank him he just casually walked away. wherever he is i hope he is doing well

A similar situation happened with my younger brother. My family and I went on our first ever family trip to Blowering Dam, We were having fun and all, I was 12 or 13 at the time while my younger brother was 9. The rest of our family went back to the car because they got bored of just messing around for about an hour now, while I and my brother were still in the water. I saw a kangaroo across the river we were near and decided to move further away from there, Kangaroos are dangerous and noticed that I didn't find my younger brother. I went back to the car quickly to check if he was there, He wasn't. My family started freaking out and stuff and I went back to where my brother and I was, I saw some bubbles coming up from a few metres away from the river and I quickly dived into the water, Not even caring about the nearly 2-meter tall kangaroo nearby. I eventually dragged him up from the muddy bit of the water and he started coughing water endlessly. He coughed up about litres worth... It felt like that at the time. I stood there nearly shaking at nearly having lost my brother and realised I should have kept a better view of my brother rather than the mountains nearby. Anyway, I'm 15 now and I still occasionally brag about how I saved him and he owes me his life as a joke.

i went banana boating in Greece when i was in my teens and fell off a few times, being so far out in the ocean that the water all around you is just a seemingly bottomless black void in every direction was terrifying. your brain constantly reminds you of all the massive monsters that can fit in that much space and appear out of the blackness.
It's funny that I'm fascinated by space and by the ocean, but I've had irrational fears related to them for as long as I can remember. For some reason, I had a fear that would come and go of falling up into the night sky. With the ocean, the idea of watching something massive descend into darkness is terrifying, but I also fear that some massive creature will appear below me.
currently happening with The Titian
I was wondering if anyone else was coming back to this video bc of it
That’s why I’m here
Sometimes I wish I never found out about thalassophobia, now I can't go in the water without thinking about the infinite all consuming void that is right underneath me. I think the internet in general has has an overall negative impact on my life
Solar Sands discussing phobias is giving me life.
If he ends up talking about pittakionophobia, I’m gonna run for the hills. I literally can’t say the word of the phobia, that’s what I’m scared of. Seeing/hearing/thinking of the word or the item makes me feel sick and scared. Phobias are weird, man.
It’s ironic that this gives you life while it take away life from others
Same
Remember when he used to criticize art? He's grown so much
I kinda hope he talks about trypanophobia honestly. It's pretty common tho, so I doubt it

You saw that ass phobia huh?

Yay! You just added to my list of irrational fears. It never crossed my mind that I’d possibly be sucked to the bottom of the ocean BUT now that you mention it that does seem like it could happen. Yaaaay lovely earth we live on
imagine being the last of the three guys sitting there with two corpses waiting to die themselves
I wonder what conversations they had during their time in there

"Fiction just can't compete with Reality" There's a reason that the scariest works of fiction are the ones that blur the line, or straight-out convince you that they're real.
When i was in school, i heard a quote: science fiction is fiction, because it hasn't happened YET
SCP containment breach
"Based on a true story" XD
@@flameshiki5990 that use to be true, back in the day science fiction meant that all technology was based on what we believed was possible at the time of writing. But that's not what the genre is anymore.
@@RusticRonnie yeah. for the bad stuff, and even a lot of the well funded stuff, it's just another way to handwave anything you want into a plot, just like poorly written magic, except theoretically more immersive. theoretically.
I think the first time I felt the fear of ocean was when I saw the Barraki ad when I was a child. I remember having nightmares about it and yet I was also fascinated by the vast blue deep that whenerver I knew there was gonna be a documentery about ocean on TV I could't wait.
There's a Wii game called "Endless Ocean" with 1 or 2 sequels... THIS is so frightening. Your character is a diver exploring different areas/oceans in various parts of the earth. You can dive in the amazon, the red sea, the Antarctica and at one point you have to find an openingin the sea floor to dive down a into the depth of a cave... I played this game as a kid and I couldn't continue because of my rising panic. I haven't touched it since
For me, I'm afraid of the emptiness. The marine creatures help, but it's the vast emptiness of the ocean that just fucks with me.
me too the huge body of water that is becoming more and more darker as you go deeper
Could not have said it better myself
Whatever you do don't think about space
I love how for me it’s both the emptiness and the sea creatures 💀
Embrace The Emptiness, child. It will come for you.

Speaking of which does anyone remember when you where a kid and swimming in a swimming pool. Did anyone get a feeling that an invisible shark was in the pool with them?
I was so used to seeing the word “phobia” wrong for so long this is refreshing 😂
"crashed like a soda can" well... yea uhm well it happened two years after
Underwater cave divers who do rescue missions will never not be badass in my eyes. They have my utmost respect
I can't ever understand why we don't use advanced technology to help these divers. I am certain we have the technology to scan the caves ahead, and then give these divers the largest tank we can give them.
@@charlesmorey4298 often the large tanks restrict movement. Tighter the cave, smaller the time you can spend underwater
@@charlesmorey4298 water pressure typically doesn’t help
They will never not be completely stupid in my eyes. To each their own lol
@@marvelouslee4427 stupidity should never be mistaken with bravery. to risk your own life to save someone else is a virtuous job.
The scariest thought for me is to be floating over the deep with my legs hanging down into the abyss.
Yes, i used to even be scared of totally clear pools when i was a child because i had the irrational fear that something would come out of the open water vents on the walls of the pool underwater. Did you feel the same?
@@finlaymcdiarmid5832 id love swimming in pools, but when it turned night time I had to get out, I had some weird fear that something might be in the dark waters with me
@@OdysseyK oh yeah, im fine with pools now but i would not be going in any pools at night no way
@@OdysseyK same, especially when you are swimming alone
@@finlaymcdiarmid5832 omg i was the same way!!i hated swimming alone and still do
the episode in the magnus archives titled "lost john's cave" is the most terrifying episode and i will stand by this; underwater cave diving is horrifying

Man, this is my second video of yours i've watched now. You got my sub and respect for sure! Excellent, thought provoking, and smartly executed, I was transfixed through the last second of the video. Love the content!
This video is relevant TODAY !
Thalassophobia in a nutshell: Beeing afraid of increadible deep water, the possibility to face unknown creatures in a location you have a major disadvantage cause of pressure, the pitch black surrounding you and the need for air, as well as the fear of dying in one of many brutal, slow ways. Couldn't get any worse, could it?

@@Xavier-xd3cd UNDER WATER NAZIS WITH CTHULU'S POWERS
@@thalassaer4137 lmao
It can get worse. Naval mine Field or a shipwreck
Also add the fact of being physically underwater, meaning your are limited in your movements and you are not in control of your surroundings. Absolutely nightmarish.

Anyone coming back to this video because of recent news?
Yup
Yo props for using 'Uritual' by Boards of Canada in the video, always stoked to find other BOC fans !
My dad told me that he once went scuba diving and, at a certain depth, couldn't see far at all and his depth perception was all skewed. He turned around and saw a massive shark swimming towards him and he was scared for his life, he then realised what he was looking at, a small fish a few inches from his face that looked like a massive one in the distance
Ive had an experience like that while scuba diving, it messes with your brain down there.
This doesn't relate to your comment, but your profile picture is epic.

Yeah it’s a basking shark, basically harmless to people unless it accidentally swallows you since it’s a herbivore
@@IAmInsideYourWalls-wm9ek They aren't herbivorous, as they eat zooplankton, which are microscopic organisms.
Same
I first noticed my thalassophobia when i was a little kid at a summer fest of our local pool. There was a 10m/32ft diving platform that was closed because the tower was too unstable. I still remember looking into the pitch black, dirty water of the pool below. I knew well that it was very deep. Imagining falling into it and drowning(i couldn't swim at that time) scared me more than anything.
Fun cave diving story: My dad is actually a scuba diver, and also has a cave diving license. He went on numerous cave diving trips and told me about all of them, most where mostly the same.. extremely dark, you leave a small cable behind you so you can follow it back to the cave exit, dead ends and sometimes other exits than the one he entered the cave from! One thing that was also the same with every cave was the animals in there, or the lack of it. Sometimes you see small fish or crustaceans crawling around.. but that’s not always the case.. one time he was diving through a cave, with the flashlight being the only source of light. He got to a point where the cave did a sharp turn, so he couldn’t see what was behind it. When he swam past the corner he almost shit his pants because out of nowhere a manatee was just swimming through the cave! They’re around 3.5m long, so it was a big change from the usual animals you find in there :D But manatees aren’t dangerous to humans so he was good 😌 When he met the jellyfish swarm tho.. that’s another story Might tell it if some people are interested!
GO ON! I'm interested
@@Bibikkyuu the jellyfish swarm story is less creepy and more scary. He and his diving buddy just swam out of a cave, around 100m down (he’s a technical diver, which means he can go up to 330 feet down) After exiting the cave, they had to start their journey to the surface, which can take a long time bc you need to let your body adjust to the drastic pressure change. Otherwise you could get divers sickness which is really not a nice thing.. The problem was, that above them, there was a giant jellyfish swarm, which they had to get through to reach the surface. So they started ascending and trying their absolute hardest to dodge the jellyfish. But one of them got my dad right across the throat! He actually had a burn wound there for weeks afterwards. His diving buddy saw the whole thing and thought it was kinda funny and mocked my dad a bit, which led to him getting stung too😂 in the end they got away with only one sting each, and it wasn’t any seriously dangerous kind of jellyfish. A bit anticlimactic but kinda funny 😄 Hope it was an interesting read:D I got a few more diving stories of my dad, and also other divers he knew
@@herberttheturtle Super interesting!
Sounds interesting! I wish I was fit and motivated enough to be a diver.

Who could be afraid of some thickness
So I know this is 2 years old and the narrator is much.....much younger than me, but this video put a name to my biggest fear and everything it encompasses. Everything described in this video is exactly what I fear but I can't tell you where my fear started or why, but this kid nailed it for me and honestly when describing my fear to others over the years the reactions I got told me that I may just be alone in this fear.....no I don't live under a rock I guess I just hadn't found anyone else with this phobia so though this video had my blood pressure through the roof, and I felt it difficult to watch most of the actual video I did listen and im really glad I'm not alone in this even if I hate that others suffer with this like myself it's just comforting to know im not some weirdo to afraid of the ocean to go no further than knee deep on the beach or swim in a lake that all you see is dark nothing someone else out there is just as scared as I am.
