Hope you’re doing okay. Been in my thoughts pal. Glad to see you back.
hiiiiiiii
sorry about what happened to your dog
no brl ?
What
An extremely sad part of Yuri’s story is the man who discovered the camera and video wished he never had saying “If I had known the footage existed I’d have flooded it.”, because “his mom has it now - she has the footage of her own son drowning”.
Yeah... that's totally messed up... I don't know why he didn't check the footage himself first.
@@birisuandrei1551 what bro it’s not his fault
@@birisuandrei1551 I think you have different priorities when discovering a corpse underwater
@@MacinteuchPlus well unless the mom was there on the surface waiting for him there was no reason not to check... But i think he probably knew nothing of a camera existing at the time....but then i question who even posted this video on the internet in that case.
@@birisuandrei1551 I'm guessing it was seized by police first and then released with permission for educational purposes for divers?
Yuri's footage was definitely the most horrifying part of this video. Knowing that we were seeing a man's final moments through his own point-of-view is chilling.
Yuri's vid was indeed disturbing. I kept saying ,Oh my God because obviously we knew what was coming. So sad. I have always thought the ocean both beautiful and terrifying. I love seeing deep sea creatures , some are really beautiful and some are nightmare inducing.
worst part was all he did was swim down. I get going into a cave and getting stuck or lost or something but the dude just didn't watch his meters and just got stuck on the ground.
When someone tells you "the cameraman always lives", just show them that.
The wheezes are terrifying knowing he's about to drown ugh so scary
@@yonkothezonko8972 Omg, yes, this. The wheezing sounds were awful, they sounded like he was saying 'help! help!'
NGL, one of the most terrifying things I’ve ever heard is when saturation divers talk about how every so often they’ll be made aware of some absurdly massive unknown creature that is just beyond the work light, generally through the feeling of water displacement caused by their movement. Like these are people whose job is to do extreme construction/demo work on the ocean floor, there’re pretty high up on the badassery scale, and they all basically are like “don’t think about it or you’ll go nuts cause the reality of what’s out there makes Lovecraft look like Cousteau.”
As a veteran of Afghanistan , someone who willingly charged machine guns and rpgs. I take one look at the deep ocean and go f that noise.
Ain't enough money in the world I tell you.
I can imagine being a diver working at the base of an oil rig in absolute darkness, only able to see the tiniest area illuminated by your torch
Suddenly, you feel water being displaced behind with a great deal of force, almost knocking you away
A mental image suddenly flashes in your mind of a colossal black creature with a huge gaping mouth filled with razor-sharp teeth and soulless white eyes moving silently in the dark depths where you are but a morsel
@@clothar23 Amen to that! After getting out I noticed I gained some phobias like heights and deep water. Stay safe out here brother
@@SamuelBlack84 stop
@@SamuelBlack84eh not even that man. At least you'd know. Imagine just getting swept up and you can't see nothing and you get thrashed about and eventually killed. Like at least with your description your like okay gots teeth, eyes, big mass. Imagine, like, no description. Indescribable. Barely any sound, hardly any light, you know your somewhere that is not meant for humans. And then displacement, drop your light, and carried away screaming into basically endless depths of water and darkness. Yeah I'm good on all that. I surf, I can't be watching videos like this man haha
this video hits so different after the news of the “titan” titanic submersible being missing. especially the iron lung game. so eerie
Indeed
RUclips decided it was a really good idea to make me watch this.
I'll watch it.
Mofos thought it was a good idea to emulate that game irl and just about suffered the same fate
Built literally 10mins drive from me. I didn’t know about this business until today the tragedy. Here in Everett,WA which the world largest building by volume exists. Everett Boeing Factory. Where the 747 was first made and the last time.
How different dose it hit exactly? 🤔
honestly i wouldn't mind a series dealing with phobias like this, it's a very insightful way to view fears we may not understand
This, maybe for a sequel he can delve into fear of bugs/insects
I'd love to see a similar video on fear of space. There's a similar video already on the site by Bourkey, but I'd love to see something like that with this level of production value.
Jacob Geller did it first
@@kelpocereal5077 Geller is also great!
I have a phobia of both aging & my mortality. It's quite crippling in every waking second of life. I think this is a great idea, I'd like to learn about other phobias as well and see people's thoughts on them all
The story of "The thing that drifted ashore" is surprisingly "happy" for that author. All of those people apparently survived and presumably were able to get treatment for their mental illnesses and were cared for. Their families got to see them again. Nobody that was on the beach dies or mutates into a horrific monster or gets hurt when they inspect the corpse.
least horrifylingly devastating junji ito story
I think you overestimate how effective could the treatment even be for such an event of this scale.
The narration diagnoses they were all clinically insane after investigations, and it abruptly ends right after. To expect proper recovery of these hundreds of civilians is a bit gullible, especially with the visible mental scars and transformation they've gone through.
This is not a happy story even in comparison, the only happy thing on it would be friends and families getting closure on their fates.
@@wrongfulhermit fr
@@kirbyofthestarsfan have you read Junji Ito’s other stories? I’m not trying to be mean, but it DEFINITELY is one of his nicer endings I’ve ever read 😆 quite a few others I’ve read end on a much bleaker note
Sure, but the psychological damage in knowing that those monsters as well as others are currently making the bathypelagic, and assumedly the deeper parts of the mesopelagic, their homes is not comforting whatsoever. What's worse is if these species work on a vertical migration schedule that just now sends them higher up into the epipelagic zones and near coasts.
Couldn't ask for a better reason to start using depth charges again.
I hope in the next Fear of the Deep installment we'll discuss the dangers of going deep in a vessel made from camping supplies and a joystick.
It's inevitable.
the joystick was probably the safest thing on that sub 😂
the military has an extensive history of using xbox remotes for billion dollar combat equipment.... the remotes are battle-tested thats why i say that was probably the most sound decision they made
@@TheUnplugged1I keep telling people the same thing. It’s funny how much the media has jumped on them about that but no one cared about the documentaries a couple years ago that showed navy ships using Xbox 360 controllers 😂
@hamavery6476 if you need a way to control something why not use a controller that's been designed and developed for tears by Microsoft?
@@hamavery6476Was it an ACTUAL Xbox controller or an off brand one? Because the sub had a shitty, off brand Logitech controller if I remember right
Scuba diver here! At one of my favorite dive sites (the North Wall off Grand Cayman), the reef suddenly drops off and goes down a mile into the depths. As you descend down the wall, you can turn away from the coral to look off into the open ocean. There’s nothing quite like looking off into the blue, then looking down into the black abyss, and realizing just how small you are…
this is beautiful
yeah, i got a comment above of the smallest taste of that.
And to think that the Mariana Trench is at least 7 miles deep and 44 or so miles wide. The mind boggles on that one
I'm a very novice diver and I have some questions as to what may have saved Yuri if he was more prepared. A proper air mix for the depth? Plus a physically larger BCD to help him become more buoyant?
@@TomsLife9 Yuri probably had nitrogen narcosis (which basically makes you drunk), and he was basically so disoriented that he lost sight of which way is up. The problem with nitrogen narcosis is that all divers experience it to some extent, but you don’t notice it until you’re really, really narcosed, and if you can’t see the surface, you’ve got no way to orient yourself. The only real way to avoid narcosis is by limiting your depth - ascending clears your head. Yuri definitely should’ve been diving with a buddy though - if his buddy had noticed signs of nitrogen narcosis in Yuri, he’d probably still be alive. Diving alone is never a good idea
The story of Yuri just reminds me that:
1: Don't go diving, or atleast not alone.
2: Don't go caving.
3: Don't go underwater caving.
diving is fun just don't try to be an asshole diving 200 ft deep when everyone tells you not to. darwin award for yuri
Lmao facts! to both of u lol
Caving kills such a high percentage of the people who do it, I wouldn't go caving for any reason knowing how many have died or come extremely close to it in a cold dark natural tomb.
Going in tight caves is terrifying enough.. going it water filled caves is insane.
diving is incredible, just be careful lol
I feel horrible for Yuri. While he would have been cautious and listened to warnings and not gone alone, it always sucks to learn a lesson in the worst way possible. And knowing his mother now owns and has watched a tape of her own son drowning. It's heartbreaking
diving is fun just don't try to be an asshole diving 200 ft deep when everyone tells you not to. darwin award for yuri
@@dividedstatesofamerica2520 oh dang, you got me!
@@johnnyboro9558 Just like you epically pwned that dead man and his mother, you mean?
@@johnnyboro9558 im in your walls
Lol I don't think he learned a lesson in any way. He is dead mate.
I don't think I've ever felt more helpless and afraid of the ocean than when watching that footage of Yuri. The idea of being so deep into the ocean on a limited air supply and not having a way back up is actually horrifying almost beyond my comprehension. I can't imagine the panic he must have been experiencing. I think that I have more of a fear of being trapped and knowing I'll suffer a slow death than I do a fear of the ocean. I've always been terrified of spelunking and getting stuck or wedged in a cave, too.
He could have just swam up but he didn't because he was suffering from nitrogen narcosis. It kinda feels like being drunk. He wasn't terrified. Just confused
I have so much sympathy for the guy, but at the same time it's also one of those cases where all I can think is 'what an idiot'. He was advised by a number of people with more expertise and experience than him not to go. Including the man who ultimately went to find his body, at the behest of his mother.
Sounds pretty familiar to a millionaire who recently got himself and four other men killed to satisfy his own ego and arrogance, heedless of the experience and warnings of others who knew better.
I’ve seen your works on wattpad, I’m a fan.
Btw If you are reading this, you’ve been in a comma and we are trying a new experimental procedure to see if we can interrupt your dreams, if you are reading this please blink.
Wake up, wake up. You have been stuck and you have to get out of this place.
@@Octomimicus??
I can't imagine how he must've felt. I'm glad I can't imagine. That's terrifying
Anyone who grows up around by he ocean knows that it’s the ultimate danger. My father was a deckhand and would say “nothing on earth comes close” to the raw power of the ocean. It’s frightening.
Life in the prairies may be dull at times, but at least I don't have to worry about the ocean. I've never actually seen it in person, and I think that may be a good thing.
@@WretchedRedoran It’s a humbling experience, that’s for sure 😅
What great poetic words from your father and from you. It rings of truth.
Junji's art style is so iconic I recognised it at a quick glance despite having never read that particular manga. The man is a legend in the horror community
Never read it and I still recognized it. The shit always creeps me out.
@@Redleader4044 you should... his works are worth the time... and his artstyle is simply horrific sometimes... gives you the shivers. it's hard to accomplish that in a manga in my oppinion. to draw action, blood and gore is one thing but to draw imagery that goes under your skin is another. :)
@@Mountagon i think you've convinced me unknowingly !
@@haileyjohnson6534 enjoy. ;)
Fr, his art style is so cool and eerie. I've only read Uzumaki and Tomie so far and loved the vibe in em but need to check his other works too. Also, I like how he added Ito's manga as a talking point in this and it's relevance to the topic, wasnt expecting that at all tbh.
The ocean is literally the only thing in the world that scares me shitless. Thank you for the update and I hope you're feeling better. ❤
Very much agreed 😭 I appreciate the love, thank you!

@@altxogershavelayers5166at least they last longer than 4 seconds.
I grew up in Hawaii and would swim a lot in the ocean, one time while snorkeling, which I did a lot, I went a little too far out and the ground just dropped. The fear I felt was so intense...
what do u mean the ground dropped? can u explain
@@IWantToStayAtYourHouseI’m guessing they mean that they were in the shore, where the sand is all congregated, then it drops off like |_ not unlike a steep hill above ground!
@@IWantToStayAtYourHouse like a cliff, but underwater. The feeling is very unsettling when you're swimming over sand and then suddenly the sand falls away into blackness.
It’s called a drop off, the sand just stop once you get to a certain distance. Of course there’s sand it’s just a 100 feet under you. Ocean and lakes have tons of spots that go real deep.
@@IWantToStayAtYourHouse a lot of shores have shelves where the ground beneath you goes from a steady decline to an almost 90 degree decline with no warning. You just take a step and there is absolutely nothing beneath you
To the people who don't know, are not familiar, or who aren't fans of Junji Ito, The Thing That Drifted Ashore is one is his "lighter" stories. The guy's a sweet and wholesome human, but his imagination and his stories are insanely dark and horrifying.
Yeah I recently watched it on netflix and it was amazing!
Wholesome? I think I'll pass...
He's got a grip on horror that most normal people do not appreciate the full brilliance of. The animated episodes of the Maniac Collection for example, these choice stories on Netflix, are rather grim in their own right, and reflect some deeply pathological horrors that you feel the personal torture of. I'm never going to look at ice cream trucks the same way again, for example.
@@TOUGHEYES particularly the floating heads and the layers of terror hit me the hardest, as I writer I was just marveling at the creativity and execution
@@imakeplaylists4171 OMG i hated the floating heads, left me queezy when the girl deflated after her balloon got shot. great stuff
One thing to note about Yuri Lipski’s Buoyancy control device was not functioning properly which is why he sank so fast. He was also wearing a weight belt with the added weight of the camera. It wasn’t necessary the ocean that kept him trapped at the bottom it was his own equipment.
Exactly. Yuri's death was natural selection tbh. Every death is tragic but his stupidity and arrogance would have killed him sooner or later. He was warned repeatedly not to go down there because he didnt have the qualifications. He went regardless, with the wrong diving equipment. The recklessness is astounding
@@Vasilia4 jfc a man died and you're out here spouting "natural selection."
how could you say something so heartless as "natural selection"? i agree with you to an extent but it's so dehumanizing and cruel to think "natural selection" is how he died. you're no different than those who think they're better simply for being born into excess. that dipshit that killed himself and his customers in the titan submersible was also the scum of the earth, but i would never say "natural selection" weeded him out. humans have evolved past what natural selection does to other animals in nature. it's simplistic and reduces complex reality into nonsensical one-liners. "yuri's death was natural selection tbh." there were a lot of factors that contributed to his death. darwin's theory of natural selection was not one of them.
@@Vasilia4 L reply
@@soupstoreclothingcouldn't have said it better myself
As someone who has gone diving, I can say that when I heard you say that he emptied his BC, I began to tear up because you can only do such a thing at shallow depths where you want to adjust your buoyancy. This poor man started sinking faster and faster and probably hit the floor with a thud. I really hope his family is okay
The Yuri video genuinely filled me with dread. I think mostly because you can just hear the exact moment he realizes he is no longer in control of the situation and instinctively tries to scream, perhaps with the hopes that someone/anyone would come to his aid and help bring him back to the surface. I'm sure with enough time he could've figured out how to do this on his own. Instead, the ocean mercilessly suffocated him after just a few minutes.
it was too late for him no matter what... narcosis and then oxygen toxicity would have killed him even if he had infinite air :/
It was a horrific and needless death. He asked multiple guides to take him through the arch and they all told him he'd need to be specially trained to do it and refused to take him without doing the training first. He decided to go anyway, by himself, without doing any of the training. And he found out why the people who knew how to do it insisted he learn first. The Blue Hole is dangerous to people who don't know what they don't know. Dive within your limits.
@@sarasmr4278 Or just _don't dive at all,_ you know. One guaranteed way to avoid dying in the deep sea is to flat-out _not_ go in the water, period. And I say this as someone who was born and raised right by the Pacific coast.
@@mrreyes5004 sounds like you're diving within your own limits :) and mine, too! I have enough panic attacks on dry land with plenty of air all around me. Underwater? No, thank you. I really enjoy diving and cave diving videos though. Dive Talk is awesome, and Mr. Ballen has some good ones too.
@@mrreyes5004 make sure you never go into a car, you'd hate to die in a car crash and be bleeding everywhere
"One thing has, and will always hold true. *The ocean.. is **_fucking. horrifying."_*
Such a simple sentence and yet it, _especially_ in Nexpo's voice, perfectly encapsulates everything
why do you allow little youtubers to control your thoughts
Would have been if he left out horrifying. It still is accurate
@@MrLTiger What does this even mean 😂
@@MrLTiger nobody does, it’s just essay vids like this that help us gain insight on things we don’t know and helps us formulate what we’ve wanted to say but couldn’t put together ourselves.
It’s not you just let RUclipsrs influence you
seeing this after the Oceangate sub is a different type of horror
Same. I heard what happened and this is where my head went. Implosion was most likely what happened ... comforting at least they didn't know it was coming or feel it at all. 💔
I feel like a video much like this but about space would also be fascinating. The vast expanse of it can be terrifying
hearing Yuri’s wheezing breaths was CHILLING. Poor dude didn’t know what was coming. The fact that there video of his last moments is so horrifying.
the worst part for me was when he fell and just kept struggling to get up
it sound like hiccups to me. a very common effect when diving. what got Yuri was his ego not nature.
@@cheapbstard I sort of agree, had he listened to the advice of other divers he may not have died. But also he didn’t know the dive would be so strenuous. Doesn’t make it any less hard to watch.
I heard you can feel drunk from nitrogen or something so hopefully he didn't know what ws coming, the way he's moving seems drunk from gases, you couldn't pay me enough to do this activity
@@cheapbstardwhat got him was nitrogen toxicity, wich makes you act in ways a radical person wouldn't, when you go to deep with a normal air tank the nitrogen will become dangerous, for deeper depts you need more pure oxygen and less nitrogen
I love the ocean, but it is very daunting to think of it’s mystery. Every time I get in the ocean there’s always this subtle fear.
Very much agreed. It's hard to wrap your head around

One thing I never see anyone praising Nexpo for is his writing skills. His vocabulary, choice of words, and the flow at which he narrates is just superb. I am surprised you haven't been asked to narrate films yet or at the very least voice act in television or video games. Absolute stellar work once again and the fact that it's FREE for us to enjoy is mind-boggling.
Nothings really free when you're high on meth.
One reason might be... his videos are actually astunding good ASMR, which makes people like me or my friends sleepy, unfortunatly, it would be lethal for movies
dude watch his video “ben drowns again”. it’s a short-ish movie he made based on the ben drowned creepypasta and he’s one of the main characters
@@DeadAndAliveCat Literally nobody here will agree with you.
@@DeadAndAliveCat you’re an absolute idiot. What are you here for? The videos and stock footage? Get outta here you clown he’s an excellent story teller. That’s the reason everyone is here. You must be American
It might sound morbid but I'm kind of glad that Yuri was most likely experiencing narcosis during his final moments so that he wasn't fully conscious/aware during his death bc being of sound mind during that would have been 10x scarier
That's what went thru my mind when it was likened to drunkenness.
Not morbid at all. I do that too because I really hate to see someone suffer so much that it disturbs me into trying to convince myself they didn’t suffer and you’re probably the same.
I believe the mind does this deliberately to protect itself from that kind of horrific torture.
@@SarahCombs71I've always wondered if thats really true... some people even say that the brain releases dimethyltryptamine during its final moments but im not sure how extensively they studied this
I think about that too, maybe it was less horrifying & stressful for him
I'm always so sad that there are almost no deep sea huge monsters movies. Either all ocean horror films are on the surface, or are deep sea with human sized threats, like nothin would scare me more than being on the ocean surface and seeing a monster the size of a continent, how has Hollywood barely capitalizedon this
Tbh we could not know at tgis moment what lurks beneath the depths and because of phenomenons like deep sea gigantism there very well might be giant sea monsters.
Hollywood lowkey needs to get on production with thalassophobia centered films bc those would do so well if executed properly
the meg is the only one I can think of, and that was just jaws on cgi steroids
Pacific rim
Does Godzilla technically count? It did come from the ocean after all lol
Pacific Rim doesn't count?
The rock you threw into that lake when you were a kid, you may be the last person to ever touch it
ive never had thalasaphobia, but that yuri story sent chills down my spine. being in that scenario, trying to inflate your boyancy device to no avail must be horifying. knowing damn well that youre gonna drown, alone and 300 feet below sea level. i cant even imagine how me must've felt in that situation.
Probably the primordial gut dread that we humans couldn't even concoct in our worst nightmares, knowing that for the limited time you are alive you will never see land or your family again, doomed to be either found bloated and rotted much later or most likely never seen by anyone again.
@@joek4759 Pig benis
I would assume drunken dread…
Fortunately he probably didn't actually drown, but would have essentially succumbed to O2 toxicity at that depth. It likely still isn't a pleasant death, but I can't imagine the initial feeling of drowning with water entering into your lungs...
my videos are worse than nexpo's videos
the video of yuri has haunted me for years. the painful wheezing as he gets further and further away from the surface is gut wrenching

And then you're implying it's only popular after this video came out.
This video couldn't be more relevant right now.
I had a friend that was a diving instructor, and he had a few horror stories.
The one that really stuck with me was about training a new person, and one of the final tests is to take them out to a featureless area at night and let them dive.
So off the person goes, and they begin to dive down, everything seemed fine, the person was in good health and his girlfriend was waiting back at the hotel.
Then the new diver stopped talking.
And they kept diving down...
The instructor said they tried to stop them, but lost sight as it got darker and deeper.
The person never came back... They just went down into the depths.
So I look up the story, and apparently a small number of people do this every year in training, they see the depths and just swim towards it.
Like that urge to jump when your standing on a cliff edge.
It makes me wonder how fragile the mind is, and scares the hell out of me that there could be a thing that I could see that just makes me snap...
That’s so scary
the call of the void, i think it's called
You rekon he might have passed out? Damn
So people regularly just lose their minds of out nowhere or was he unconscious (passed out) ???????
Narcosis is ver real as well
I got caught in a riptide before at 25, and I honestly think more people need to know about them. They are terrifying, I was swimming by myself and there was no one really around me. I was probably 10 feet out from shore and swimming. I was careful to stay where I could touch the ground with my feet, I didn't want to go much deeper.
Now, I had learned about rip tides for a long time and had it pounded into my head time and time again by my grandparents and parents to swim parallel to shore to get out of it. When I realized I wasn't able to touch the bottom, I tried to swim forward, realized the people on shore weren't getting any bigger and I figured if I went under and tried to swim I might have more power. So I tried it, and surfaced and again I was just getting further from shore. It didn't occur to me I was in a rip tide - and that is how you get killed. Your instinct kicks in and tells you to swim to shore, and you try. The riptide kills you by exhausting you and then you drown.
I ended up about 100 yards from shore after fighting for a while to get closer and then it finally hit me that this was a riptide, and finally started swimming parallel even though a pier was there and there were people fishing (the fishing attracts sharks so they tell you not to swim near them.)
I was able to make it most of the way to shore, and thankfully I was able to catch the pull of some waves. I'll tell you, I didn't even care that I was thrown into the shore by a wave and nearly knocked over by another one. There was nothing as good as feeling the sand under me and knowing I was on dry land. I had to crawl because I couldn't walk, crawled away from the water and sat there because I was too exhausted to walk. I believe I was lucky that a few years prior to getting caught in a riptide, I'd started running. I usually ran 2.5 to 3 miles everyday. I credit that with my legs being strong enough to make it to shore. Considering how exhausted I was, I don't think a person who hadn't been running that much could have made it.
I had basically the exact same experience beat for beat. I was in impeccable shape at the time. Getting winded was practically a non existing thing unless I was going full force for an extremely long duration, but by the time I splashed onto shore I still didn't feel relieved bc I felt like I was having a fatal asthma attack. It took everything I had to the point that I wasn't sure I was actually going to stabilize my breathing at all for a few solid minutes. It was horrifying. You're right, more ppl should be taught about this. I had the same knowledge as you did at the time.
That must have been fucking terrifying
Well , I have watched 4 minutes and 36 seconds of Amy Schumer's stand up routine. I have had it way worse than you.
@@WaffleStomper69 I'm happy you made it through! Its something I mention to friends every time we go to the beach. That and a buddy system. I started using the buddy system because trying to get back to where my friend and I had out spot on the beach was half as exhausting as getting caught in the riptide.
4 minutes and 36 seconds? I was exposed to a 3 second clip and I still have flashbacks. You are a brave soul.
In light of recent tragedy, this video will need a future update.
More like recent stupidity.

Here’s a list of water-related phobias for you guys in case you’re interested.
Thalassophobia: persistent and intense fear of deep bodies of water such as the sea, oceans, pools, or lakes.
Aquaphobia: Persistent fear of water and swimming/drowning (one I personally suffer from).
Submechanophobia: is a fear of submerged human-made objects, either partially or entirely underwater.
Bathophobia: The fear of volumes with large depths such as stairways and deep caves, regardless of water.
Ablutophobia: Fear of bathing.
the last one is tragically what most genshin players suffer from
You can make up literally anything and call it a phobia though. There is nothing official about these
@@SgtFCFox lol
You’re telling me bathophobia as not the fear of taking baths?
@@arturoramos2468 Someone was taking the piss when they named that one.
Man ... That ship sailing over that diver filled me with such visceral fear. And to see that spinning propeller I was praying "don't get sucked in." Well done Nexpo.
Same here...
Jup, got sweaty hands from that one
I'm with you there, the pucker factor is high. That guy was actually really lucky he wasn't hurt or killed, I saw another clip of a freediver who got really lucky to not get hurt. The guy was hit by a speedboat as he surfaced and the propeller chopped his fin in half but he wasn't injured. I guess he lost his "diver down" flag a few days prior and decided to go diving without one even though he was getting a new one later on or the next day (if I remember correctly) He said lesson learned, not to do what he did, and that he wouldn't do it again, but that's a hell of a way to learn a lesson lol
I thought it was a submarine going over, maybe I was wrong, but it was horrifying I know that!! 😵
I dunno how to express how much I love morbid channels like this. The 80s, 90s VHS effects, the soundtrack and the soothing narration are so good, feels confy and nostalgic, yet so damn morbid
more artfully presented morbidity! you are on to something.
Even though I’m terrified of the ocean, I also think it’s one of the coolest things in existence. The video footage and photographs in this video are both terrifying as well as fascinating, incredibly beautiful, and inspiring to me. This video right here is a work of art. This must be one of my favorite videos that I've ever watched on RUclips.
I never thought I had thalassophobia until I played subnautica. Something about hearing the whirring of your ship die down as you slowly come to a stop, shining a light into an abyss of nothing, and hearing the roars of leviathans in the distance that sound both near and far.. thats been the only game I’ve ever played that’s given me a *real* fear of dread
really wanna play it but the ps4 controller doesnt work with it in steam. i have a mac. so annoying
Subnautica ain’t scary ur weird
I can't play that game at night and you're deep underwater.
One of the only games I actually find scary
@@StevePerez2900 I’m sure you have an irrational fear that others might find weird.
as somebody who grew up on a tiny island in the middle of the ocean, it's such a terrifying concept that is so insanely dangerous and so many people underestimate it. it's pretty common for people here to just get on a small boat and never be seen again, or for horrifying accidents to occur. it's so scary, even to somebody like myself who can just look out of their window and it's right there.
i grew up by the infamous lake lanier and it’s terrifying how many people think that knowing how to swim means they won’t drown… i was on a competitive swim team for over a decade and i still wouldn’t even get on a boat in the lake, let alone swim in it.
Same here but I’m on Lake Superior
I didn't get to finish watching darkest lost media volume 2 :'((
Same :/
As someone with both a deep seated fear of open water thats backed up with personal trauma, and also a morbid fascination of what lurks down there, i wish this was longer. 40 minutes only felt like 15. Well done nexpo.
Story of Yuri lipski really broke me
How terrifying his death was, being 300 feet under the water, Can't go up due to pressure, Oxygen tank getting empty.
Truly a wrath of the deep.
Dude to, hahhaa
@@DarshanBhambhani oh

He wanted to touch the bottom of blue hole even though he knew it is so dangerous.
But in the end he did it and lost his life.
Subnautica was my cure for thalassophobia. It is still 100% there, but not nearly as intense as it used to be.
Edit: I sent this before the Junji Ito part. My fear of the ocean has returned tenfold
That game scared the shit out of me, but i forced myself to finish it. I wanted to quit so many times, but I wasn't going to let it beat me. I had to give myself pep talks and mentally prepare myself before going into new parts of the map and going deeper. Truly an experience.
god bless u i am not that strong i have a whopping 45 mins of gameplay on it and cannot bare touching it after that much time spent LMAO
Play Barotrauma to retrieve your phobia.
I will always have the hatred/fear of the ocean cause how easy it would be to never be seen again and who the fuck knows what really lives in the depths
you don’t have thalassophobia. you have a regular amount of fear for the ocean.
Looking forward to the latest video when it gets re uploaded bro
This video seems very fitting considering the recent OceanGate disaster.
i was thinking the same thing
Junji Ito’s work has stayed with me for years. It’s disturbing and haunting but so addictive.

One of the scariest moments in my life was snorkeling in Mexico. It was exactly how you described. The tide was pulling me out, but I didn't mind until I saw the drop off. So much darkness. The light went so far down, but you could see so little. Now, I prefer to go to the mountains over the beach. It is just such a vulnerable and empty place to be.
So glad ur hear to tell it Jake !
yeah thats the thalassophobia that is more real than giant squids is currents. once youre in the water you will be moved by it unless you swim against it and it will kill you if you arent swimming against it
@@Ninja1Ninja2 absolutely not! swimming against strong currents is a surefire way to exhaust yourself. Never try to fight a current that is pulling you, go with it and keep your bearings while moving at an angle to escape it.
One of my classmates died because of a current. Fighting against it will kill you
Empty? Hahaha, no. There's so much down there, lurking, stalking, waiting...
I almost thought I was dreaming that nexpo uploaded a new video. Glad to see its not just me
Came back to this video after hearing the story of the missing submarine..
I think they're dead by now. No way they will find a tiny submersible thousands of miles deep in the ocean with little to no light or visibility.

Yuri Lipski's story reminded me a lot of when I almost drowned 8y ago. I got cocky, got too far from the shore and one bigger wave was all it took for me to almost lose my life. Ever since then, any deep stream/body of water instills a deep dread in my soul.
Thank you for this beautiful vid, Nexpo, and I genuinely hope you're feeling okay.
I got caught in a current while swimming too far away from the beach. I had gone pretty far past the 2nd sand bar and all of the sudden I looked over and saw that I was getting further from my family. Luckily I knew to swim straight to shore instead of swimming against it. I got to rest at the sand bars and only started swimming when I knew I could do it. Once I got to shore I talked to the life guard and he told me that they had just put out the search call for me on the radio. He confirmed it was me and then called it off and had a lifeguard in a buggy drive me back to my family. I had drifted 2.5 miles down the coast and the guard told me that they were changing the swimming conditions because they didn't realize the current was that strong and he told me that if the current had been going away from shore instead of parallel I could have easily drowned and died. Since then I've been terrified of going in past where I can stand in the ocean
The ocean is so powerful. She can take you to amazing places and she can also take you under and away forever. Amazing but terrifying. Stay safe out there.
I got caught in a riptide when I was about 12 and ofc I didnt/still don't know how to swim. The only thing that kept me alive was a boogie board because I was probably 300 yards away from shore by the time I realized what was happening
As always, Nexpo is not crafting videos, but a whole experience. Thank you!
Means a ton Cristi, thank you!
@@Nexpo Welcome back to the churn bud.

@@moxiemedia4350 He's been doing this for years, you have a lot of catch up ahead of you
I GOT TO WATCH THE NEW VID BEFORE IT GOT TAKEN DOWN
As a person that suffers from thalassaphobia, I can 100% agree that the ocean is fucking terrifying.
When I was a kid, I got pulled out in a rip current. Nobody noticed until it was too late. I couldn't swim out of it and it pulled me out extremely far to the point where I couldn't see the people on land any more. I thought I was going to die. Then I heard it. This extremely loud groaning noise from directly beneath me. I have no fucking idea of what it was because I never looked at it. I just sat there, trying to stay afloat and survive. Every few minutes it would make that noise again. I got saved by some deep sea fishers coming back in. Since then I have been terrified of the ocean and refuse to go into the ocean.
@@DeadAndAliveCat yeah, some people are scared of the ocean (like literally) and others are scared of floating in the ocean with no floor and life in sight.
As a born and raised Californian, I relate to this. I've never been caught on a rip current, but I already know that I can't do swimming if I can't see the bottom/floor. Perfectly fine with pools and even lakes, but anywhere that you only see a black abyss? Screw that, my ass is staying on dry land where I can see and breathe. The ocean might be full of unknown wonders waiting to be discovered, but all of that can stay down there as far as I'm concerned.
Same thing (minus the monster noises) happened to me 10 yrs ago, surfing in New Hampshire.. I thought i was done for, and the ocean beneath was dark as night since it was a cloudy day... I wanted to literally disappear out of existence lol Rip currents are now my worst nightmare
im sorry that happened that sounds absolutely terrifying
That gave me anxiety just reading it. When I was in the Navy, I knew a guy who had been blown of the flight deck of a carrier in the middle of the Pacific, and he floated around for 13 hours by the time they knew he was gone, turned the ship around, and found him. He was never the same after that.
To Be Honest, at this point a new nexpo video is something that makes my day. Thank you Ryan, hope u feel better. I'm sure everybody sends their love. ❤

A sub just went missing. Those people are now at the mercy of the deep. Blue. Sea.
Hard to believe this video was released ten whole months ago. I've come back to it many times, and each time it feels like "A brand new Nexpo video." I love this channel and all of the things it covers, but I love most of all when I can tell when a creator is proud of and passionate about something they've made. I think that's what makes this video feel fresh, even ten months later.
It's cool that you mentioned Junji Ito's work because he actually just released an animated anthology series of his horror stories on Netflix including that ocean creature horror story you featured.
Freaky deep sea life is really interesting to learn about but honestly the most hella creepy thing are stories about people drowning while exploring underwater caves, it doesn't matter if they're freshwater or sea caves, it's so much more terrifying combining claustrophobia with drowning.
Also watching that footage of the man dying of nitrogen narcosis/drowning at 300ft really bummed me out, it makes you feel like gasping for air just thinking about it. The poor dude was also isolated in darkness with only that dim red light, absolutely an awful way to go.
Do you happen to know the name of that release on Netflix? I am totally interested! 😊
@@LynneMadison0731 It's "Junji Ito Maniac: Japanese Tales of the Macabre". It's quite entertaining.
The nice thing was, I hadn't read a lot of the stories (including the one he mentioned), so I got a few surprises. (-:
I agree. . . That death kinda affected me in a way I don't typically get from Nexpo's content. Something about suffocation as a way of dying is terrifying to me.
@@fisheyenomiko you should absolutely read them as they are way better in his medium and the two anime adaptations are horrendous compared to the manga
Manga is much better, I wouldn't recommend watching the anime unless you already know the stories
The ocean has some things that are crazy about it, but that story and video of Yuri Lipsi being a man’s last moments were powerful. We see him make tragic mistake and then the last part where he just seems to accept it and is there waiting.
It’s like an underwater version of “To build a fire” mistake after mistake led to his death, arrogance, and overconfidence. At what point was Yuri dead? I think he was dead the moment he decided to go through the hole alone, and without proper oxygen mixture for the depth.
Yuri was even told he lacked the experience and training to go into the blue hole. The dive guide he was supposed to have told him that he needed 2 weeks of specific training before diving the blue hole...it's sad that he didn't listen to the warnings beforehand :(
Only Nexpo can talk about one of my deep fears while also soothing me with his voice 😂
I’m a diver and for some reason I’ve never really felt disturbed by the oceans vastness. A little unnerving at times maybe but I always feel really at peace underwater. I guess it’s because of training not to panic but I find the ocean beautiful and fascinating
I too am a diver and have been fortunate enough to have dove some of the best dives the world has to offer and I too have always felt pure solace at the bottom of the ocean. The sea walls freak me out from time to time but I’ve slowly gotten more used to them.
Though the occasional sea wall that fades into perpetual nothingness still gives me the chills.
It's great til it's not. I did a lot more things in the world until I fractured my spine. Now I respect that I was just lucky every time leading up to that.
I love diving. I can’t imagine doing something as unbelievably stupid as Yuri. Diving to the bottom of the blue hole? No thanks. And if I really wanted to do it, there’s no way in hell I’m going alone. Never do any dive alone. Even if it’s an easy dive, anything can happen and if you’re alone no one can save you.
Well you are a weirdo, because goddamn the ocean is scary af
The thing I find really weird about myself is that I find the ocean, or any large body of water to be a scary place, but I LOVE SPACE SO MUCH.
Watching that ship sail right over that diver absolutely unlocked a new phobia that I didn’t know existed. Well done.
Fr fr I am mortified
bruh fr i was shaking watching that clip
It is Submechanophobia.
You know exactly what it is, but that limited point of view makes it so alien. And then there's the rotors...
I couldn’t figure out what was going on
and for a second I thought the diver was trapped under something. Then the rotors appeared and I’m just … Mmmm I’m just glad the diver was okay at least, otherwise that would’ve been bad 💀
WELL THIS JUST BECAME TITANLY TIMELY
Watching this after the events of the missing sub adds an even more terrifying level to it
Amazing video; I'm still blown away by how professional and amazing all these "homemade" video documentaries can be. We all grew up watching TLC and Discovery channel stuff, but now we can make and share this sort of thing with one another is increible.
I am an active scuba diver and love it with every fiber of my being, and yet I have intensely fierce submechanophobia. Even seeing a small sailboat wreck or the legs of a dock from a distance fill me with this chilling sense of visceral dread that I just can't shake or escape. The way you explained and depicted this bizarre but crippling fear was flawless, thank you for exploring it!
I feel this same thing. For whatever reason, when you see it, your heart plummets. Especially if you can see the top of the wreck and not the bottom 💀
@@moxieoxenfree2872 the feeling of abandonment and how there were previous humans that just left these things to rot in the deep dark ocean is what creates the fear for me
i have this too, my friends used to think it was funny until they realised it genuinely makes me throw up and shudder and honestly freak the fuck out
Finally someone who experiences the same feelings i do- im usually picked on by my family and friends for overreacting even though i dont know why submechanophobia is something i have, it makes me feel full on physically ill sometimes.
Bro all i could think of when Nexpo was showing all those images for submechanophobia was "Aren't those with the phobias literally shitting their pants right now looking at all this stuff he's showing?". But seems like you got through it anyways.
Watching this video honestly made me realize why my boyfriend has such a big fear of the ocean, it really just explains so much. Love the video as always and hope you’re feeling better man ❤️
Thanks a ton my friend :)
my videos are worse than nexpo's videos !!
I was at thw submechnaphobia section when i realized. The videos and pictures of shipwrecks, planes, buildings, all of those were fine. All covered in coral and ice, I found some weird beauty about it. But then the ship passed overhead, with its massive propeller, that video terrified me. I dont know why, but something about that made me feel.... aweful. I love these videos so much, it teaches me so much about humans, about our minds, and about the world around us.
This is becoming increasingly more relevant I am realizing...
The Thing That Drifted Ashore was actually the first Junji Ito story I ever read, and while I don’t have a hint of Thalassophobia, it hit this specific fear I have (of being eaten or otherwise trapped inside a giant creature) so well that it took me YEARS to read the story again. Junji Ito’s stories have something for everyone, lol. Like a cornucopia of phobias.
Your fear is a fetish for a lot of people
@@thomaskelly5318 Unfortunately.
I can pinpoint the moment I became afraid of machines in water. I went aboard the Queen Mary II as a child and got to go inside her propeller room. Looking over the rails, down into the pool where the giant propeller sat, filled me with such base and primal fear. I can't quite describe the intensity of what I felt that day and ever since, I've been extremely uneasy around man made structures underwater.
Great upload, man. I really enjoyed this one.
Dude holy shit that's exactly the same for me
Just reading your experience gave me chills. Seeing silhouettes in the water has always unnerved me as well. I think for me, my brain automatically jumps to the idea of “What if I was swimming right next to that?”, and it fills me with so much dread. A propeller of that size could kill me with ease; not to mention that behemoth of an ocean liner looks like it could swallow me if it suddenly became sentient.
Submechanophobia. I can definitely relate. There’s a subreddit of pictures of exactly that
What the fuck this is what happened to me but with the big fuckin anchor chains, how many people has the Queen Mary traumatized
Huntington Beach, CA 1978 to 1988
One year, my Dad wanted to go to the big Psychic Fair they held there. After, we took the tour. All I remember is the giant prop and chain. Holy shit this is weird…
Who’s back here watching this video after recent events….?
Wow! You're storytelling and editing is on God mode... Keep it up!!! Can't wait for more like this.
I didn’t have this phobia until I was in my early teens. I was snorkelling in Spain with my dad and we were going round these rocks with pretty fish and flora. I got distracted with following this one group of fish for a few moments and then I looked down. I was only a short distance away from the shore but apparently there was a huge drop off in the ocean so I saw… nothing. Just pitch black. I’ve never felt so much panic in my life and since then I’ve never entered the ocean.
Yeah no thanks. That's TERRIFYING. I have thalassophobia BAD and idk why I'm watching this. My skin is crawling right now lol
@@levilively8643bro same and this person's comment about looking down and just seeing the blackness is UGGJOSNFSOHFISNED

"When you enter the ocean. You enter the foodchain. And mankind is nowhere near the top."

I fell asleep with my earbuds in and this vid in my watchlist. I woke up halfway through Yuri’s footage.
My dad and I have already discussed, years ago, a shared dread of deep dark waters - so waking up to Yuri’s plight had me frozen in fear (didn’t want to panic and upset my sleeping dog next to me).
Absolute terror. Respectfully presented.
"Yuri's plight had me frozen in fear" written right next to "Didn't want to panic and upset my sleeping dog next to me" is pretty funny for some reason.

I remember seeing something called a Magnapinna squid in one of those weird "deep sea oddities" videos, and holy shit it was the scariest thing I've ever seen. As always, thanks for the update, and I hope you feel a lot better.
That would be the big fin squid mentioned at 22:15
Deep-sea oddities is the best
Not that scary if you look further into it. Their unusually long arms (the majority of which couldn't even be controlled by the squid) and unusually large fins and that footage from 2007 just make em look freaky.
The lancetfish, which is known to prey on Magnapinna (among other deep sea creatures found in lancetfish bellies), is freakier imo.
@@kyanoang3l0_old They look horrifying, but they are totally harmless
One of the most frightening things I've ever experienced was being trapped in a rapidly filling cove.
I'd gone to visit some family back home in Mexico, and decided to go out on a little adventure to a collection of "islands", which were really just rocks that had emerged from the ocean and had some sand on them. They were covered in little coves, tunnels and holes, and out of curiousity, I entered a tunnel. It was beautiful, but I had no idea what was to come.
I'd entered as the tide was rising. I exited in a state of pure, undescribable terror as I was thrashed around by the waves. I ended up sticking my head into the only divet of air left in the tunnel to try to catch a breath, only to find myself in the nightmarish situation of feeling a current bubble beneath me as a new wave swept into the tunnel, removing the single inch of air I had left. The tunnel seemed small, but in that moment, it was infinitely vast-- I couldn't touch anything other than horrifyingly fast water. There was no sense of direction. For all I knew, I was heading back to the end of the tunnel.
I have no idea how I escaped. I was swimming *against* the tide and struggling to do so as I was wearing a life jacket. Though I left the tunnel a bit worse for wear, I got out, and that's the only thing that really mattered in that situation.
What part of Mexico?
@@AlexVanChezlaw somewhere near-ish to san pancho, which is near puerto vallarta
That's some divine intervention
glad you made it out man. i can’t imagine how horrifying that must have been
Did you die?
Quite unrelated, but the comic book segment reminded me very heavily of the theater play "Iona" (or "Jonah" in English), which is loosely, emphasis on loosely, based on the biblical myth of Iona/Jonah, a fisherman swallowed by a giant fish, who is very much alive and completely isolated inside the fish's belly. It's pure philosophy from start to finish, it's an acid trip of a play, but it's so worth watching/reading if you're looking for a philosophical mindfuck.
Good work as always. I love when it transitions to pauses after the anxiety inducing clips... It makes me breathe so I can continue to the next sections.
When I think of an open ocean with nothing but water in sight, I actually find it relaxing. I really like the thought of just floating in the emptiness of an ocean like the ones many really really fear. So being weird like that, its super interesting to see and listen to others talk and express themselfs about what makes them so terrified and how they feel about it.
it's probably because those of us afraid don't see it as "floating" but rather "sinking"
Yeah no, i dont know, the thing that freaks me out is not being able to see the bottom or ANYTHING around you, that feeling is unlike any other.
To this day, even with all the horror games, Subnautica is the most scared ive been in a game.
That being said, i love it, its gorgeous, deep, intriguing.
Theres just something about the blue void that i hate.
Same. I love the ocean, even though I get why it's terrifying to people. And it's especially weird because rationally I should be scared but it's either no big deal or beautiful.
@@milsthebard1085 understandable. I have no issue being by, or ON the ocean.
Say a big ship by example. Neither do i have an issue being in the ocean. The problem arises the second i submerge, and dont see anything but void
I can't swim but i also find ocean somewhat relaxing, well except scary scary creature underneath 😆 those salty water just there not going anywhere waiting for me 👀👀
This is not a phobia I share. I love scuba diving; it's very peaceful underwater, and there's an air of mystery to what you find. I did a wreck dive once and it was one of the coolest things I've ever seen. Just this ghostly, overgrown ship flourishing with sea life. I've never done any truly dangerous dives, and my deepest is only 110 feet.
damn that's still pretty deep I'd probably faint and die if I went over 20-50 feet
Glued to my seat for 40 min, phenomenal work Nexpo! I've always been fascinated by the deep blue, from the mysterious creatures to the diver's demise. This piece really presents the Ocean with such chilling reverence, not typically seen in other deep sea doc's. Please a space episode next?!?!?!
By far this is my favorite upload you have brought to us so far.
I didn't want it to end.
My grandpa was a fisherman. The stories he told me were amazing but scary as hell. Just a whole other world.
If you don’t mind me asking, but what kind of stories will he tell you about that were from the ocean?
Yes, pray tell.
id take a story if you’re willing to tell
I think thalassophobia is a very enigmatic fear, and it really puts my own phobia to shame. Arachnophobia is common, and it is fairly simple to understand.
I do not fear the ocean, nor do I fear the unknown. But I do desire knowledge of the unknown, and I think it is a shame that I will never truly know the depths of the ocean, or the depths of the cosmos for that matter, within my lifetime.

From the first second, this was gripping. Beautiful, enticing, yet haunting all at the same time. Thank you.
I actually find these "thalassophobia" pictures and videos oddly calming. I can imagine myself simply laying adrift in the vast nothingness that gives me space to think and relax. The images are beautiful to me, and the creatures don't really scare me as much as they fasinate me. Idk, if I wasn't affected by the pressure/cold and I could breath underwater I know i would spend a lot of time alone in the abyss.
As beautiful as it is, the number of creatures/obstacles that can kill, eat, or incapacitate us down there is astounding. In an environment we weren’t designed to traverse
@@Jackdman25 humans have more predators on land than at sea
i feel the exact same way. when i went on a cruise, one of my absolute favorite things to do was to sit on the deck and look at the water. there’s no way to explain how incredible the open ocean looked to me. the only thing related to the water that scared me was the thought of someone throwing me over the deck (i went on the cruise less than a year after tamara tucker was pushed overboard but she landed on a deck not in the water)
