    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 UA-cam allowed me to edit in different images I would.

      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.

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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

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

    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.

    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.

      "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

    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.

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

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.

      Same here, just a bit more extreme lol. If I can’t see what’s under me, it ain’t good and I’m getting out. Except if it’s 10 centimetres or less, then it’s fine, unless I feel something touching my foot.
      I’m deadly terrified if I go the the shore and sand is blocking my vision to see my feet, even it they only go up to my knees(which I never go further then to my knees, except in clear clear water like pools with no animals at all. )
      Funny part is, I fucking live swimming, just in pools without animals where I can see the bottom very clear every time I look down.

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.

    Fun Fact. That feeling of pain you get when holding your breath for too long isn't from running out of oxygen it's from you bodying telling you that the carbon dioxide in your lungs is building up and that you need to breath it out, a matter of fact is that a grown adult can last for around 6 to 8 minutes without taking another breath of oxygen because your body can still use the oxygen that's still in your lungs.
    That's why when you breath out the contents of your breath is still mostly oxygen, not carbon dioxide.
    As well as the fact you can hold your breath for about 10 to 12 minutes if you inhale pure oxygen, I don't recommend it but its a possibility.
    Useful advise for swimming
    So if you do feel like your drowning and you are still far down in the water, don't panic, you will only make your heart pump faster making your body use up your oxygen, calm yourself because you have more time than your body is telling you, ignore the pain and focus on swimming up to the surface. Once your out, take in a lot of deep breaths and swim to safety and seek medical help if your feeling lightheaded, having a headache, having blurry vision or generally feeling unwell.
    Hope this helps you if you ever get into a situation where you are far underwater.

      HOLD UP. HERES MORE ADVISE FOR SWIMMING TOO ABOUT WATER.
      - 90% of drownings are in freshwater.
      - Its harder to swim in freshwater than ocean water due to the salt making you more byouant. You can float in ocean but you must keep swimming in freshwater to keep your head up.
      - When swimming up more than 20ft, don't swim up faster than the bubbles you exhale. That way you can avoid the "bends". Which is when air gets into your bloodstream due to too fast pressure changes.
      - Swim completely left or right to get out of a riptide. Don't swim against it, you won't win and you'll be dragged out.

      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.
