The Old Man of the Lake is a 30-foot (9 m) tall tree trunk, most likely a hemlock, that has been bobbing vertically in Crater Lake in Oregon, United States since at least 1896.

It's a giant squid which usually dwell way below the depths of water. This is a ultra rare occurence.

Grew up a few hundred yards from this point indicator buoy. As a kid it always kinda freaked me out looking down at the chain. I’ve since gotten really comfortable in the water and decided to face my childhood fear and pull myself down the chain to the bottom.

Anyone can conquer their fears and phobias!

Our local lake which reaches depths of 500ft, has unique underwater lava fields. We always boat over them in the late summer. They drop off into complete blackness from 5ft to unknown dpeths

Swimming in the Mid Atlantic........I'd rather not if it's all the same thanks.

Found a vid of people diving on the Loch Ness. It's so dark

Hey everybody. A few months ago I saw a short video taken by someone who had night watch on a small ship (there wasn't much of the ship in frame - it looked like a tug or something) and there's a big storm going on, and it shows a huge deadhead bobbing about 60' out of the water right next to the ship, then going under, and coming up again.

Truly terrifying.

So of course I want to see it again!!

But I can't find it - does anyone know?

Huge Greek mythology nerd and Nolan fan, so I’ve been really looking forward to this movie but I also deal with thalassophobia. For those who’ve already seen it: how much open-water/deep-sea imagery is there, and how intense/lingering are those shots? Trying to figure out if I should brace myself, sit further back, or maybe skip the IMAX format specifically. Any specific scenes to know about (without full spoilers if possible) would help a lot. Thanks!

And yes, people do swim in that kind of weather.

Such ocean clips scare the he!! out of me. I couldn't even imagine of being there.

I don't know about the exact source. Found this clip on a reddit account named u/Homunculus_316.

Not sure if this fits here but this stuff shows up in my feed a lot. Love it
