When asked why he didn't want to serve on a submarine, a naval officer once answered:
"There is a law of nature that says what goes up must always come down, but there's no such law of nature that says what goes down must always come up."

Key rules on submarines include keep the water out of the people tank and keep the number of surface greater or equal to the number of dives.

The "funny" thing about colossal squids is that an adult specimen has never actually been identified, which brings up the possibility that only adolescents specimens go to the surface once in a while and REALLY giant specimens are only found right at the bottom of the ocean.
How do we know all the ones found are adolescent if we've never found an adult?
@@100organicfreshmemes5 i think it is because some of the beaks we have found in the stomachs of sperm whales are bigger than any of the beaks we have found on any other specimens. So we know there are bigger ones but we havent actually seen them
@@100organicfreshmemes5 if its an adolescent fish or whatever, its probably because the reproductive organs aren't fully developed?
What the fuck. That’s terrifying, and to be fair, the Kraken could just be an adult colossal squid right?
What would they be eating at the bottom of the ocean though? Its not like theres bigger fish the deeper you go.
Obviously what happened to the Mary Celeste is that they were waylaid by pirates, ordered to use the lifeboat to board the pirates ship, and then before the pirates could search the Mary Celeste, they were attacked by a Kraken.

I have a possible explanation regarding the “lost island” at 41:30. A lot of cartographers would put fake islands on their maps as a way of watermarking their work. If another cartographer created a map and included that island, the original artist would be able to point at the fake island and say “hey I made this island up, so I have proof that you stole my work.” I’m guessing it was a watermark that spiraled into a bigger lie
This probably is true as alot of cartographers up till the 18th century often just relied on other maps to plot their own map rather than actually doing their own research.

Are there any natural lakes in WV? In VA we've only got two (Mountain Lake and Drummond).

As an ocean-fearing environment enthusiast, it’s like ‘i know so much abt the ocean! i’ll do what i can to help it! from my couch! in my living room! fuck the ocean that shits wack!!!’
the sea helps the land and the atmosphere but absolutely nothing else, but our precious dirt is so important to us that we must help with a thing that tries to kill us anytime we go near it. Personally I am fascinated with the ocean and if somebody was to ask me if I had a fear of the sea I would say no, technically that would be incorrect because I am scared of the majority of the sea it’s just the shallow parts and the parts I can see with my own two eyes I do not fear
@@TheFoolish_Bear I feel you. I’m not scared of the sea. I’m just scared of what’s in the sea 😂
"Kraken" didn't even MEAN "giant squid monster" until fairly recently. Used to just be a big water monster, so big you'd mistake it for an island.
I think I like that better than "Massive Squid". Imagine being stranded and thinking "finally, land!" And you crawl onto it...but it's slimy and scaly and suddenly it's arisen out of the water and wailing at you.
Ohhh that's scary as hell
That makes a lot of sense. Clash of gods the “RELEASE THE KRAKEN” didn’t look like a squid but was massive.
😩
Yes. I want one.
I think it's important to mention that since this was posted, rogue waves have been proven true. A wave was measured by a deepwater research facility that was many times higher than the theoretical maximum size a wave could get, and would create enough pressure to break a steel-hulled ship in half. I specifically think this could've happened at the lighthouse, even if it wasn't what killed them
But it stopped and showed no evidence right before the land? Since it was so close to the coast
@@strawberrylotlizardthe island would have broken up the wave
@@jej9594 not if it was real large, they still would of noticed it
@@strawberrylotlizard rogue waves aren't like tsunamis, they can rise up, kick ass, and then just as suddenly sink back into the sea. it wouldn't necessarily ever make it to the shore, and even if it did, it wouldn't have the same effects as a tsunami would. this is even assuming someone on the shore was looking out at the exact right time to have seen it, if it did arrive at the shore at all. ultimately, jej9594 is right - the island would have broken up the wave no matter how big the wave was, preventing it from continuing on to the coast. we also have to remember that in weather conditions bad enough to produce a rogue wave, visibility would be atrocious. you'd be lucky if you could see ten feet in front of you, and i'm pretty sure the shore wasn't a mere ten feet away from the lighthouse. "close to the coast" is a very nebulous description, and being able to see the lighthouse from the shore doesn't really narrow down that exact distance either since a large, tall structure like a lighthouse would be visible for quite a distance out.
so, hypothetically a rogue wave could have formed close to the lighthouse, smashed into the island and the dock, subsequently broken up, and never reached the mainland. then, because of poor visibility, even assuming someone was looking out at the lighthouse at the time, they would be very unlikely to notice or even see the wave form and strike. it's a very plausible hypothesis in my opinion, certainly more so than supernatural phenomena or ocean dwelling cryptids.
@@Darkfyyre so it grows up right before the island destroyed part of the island took the guys away and then disappeared without anybody noticing it on land less than a mile away

How fucking dare you I feel like I’m having Vietnam flashbacks
A comforting thought about what might be living deep in the ocean is that, if it lives really deep, like Mariana’s Trench deep, then it wouldn’t be able to reach the surface without dying, as it’s internal fluids would be at the same pressure as it’s natural habitat, meaning it would burst if it ever came close to the surface
idk, if I was swimming above the Marianas Trench and knew there was something big below me, I would be terrified regardless if it could reach me or not.
@@dolantrumf true, but it would still be less scary than if it could get you
@@dolantrumf well at least you can safely swim around knowing no matter how strong it is
It can never reach to you
But it would probably be extremely freaky to just see a giant leviathan tentacle float up to you, being cut off by the water pressure
finally, someone who acknowledges this lmao. most deep sea creatures remain lethargic because its a lot harder to get sustainable energy. and like you said, if it does try to surface, if the organism has a swim bladder, it'll burst because the pressure change is too extreme.
Maybe it doesn't want to come up. Maybe it brings things down to it
For the Mary Celeste, what if the crew noticed that there was a large buildup of fumes from the alcohol? In that case, I could imagine the captain ordering everyone onto a lifeboat to wait until it either exploded or dissipated. Possibly, they decided to use only one lifeboat out of laziness or urgency, not wanting to bother with lowering and raising multiple boats. In their haste, they cut the rope, and intend to stay close to the ship, but somehow are unable to and end up drifting away.
Maybe the reason a rope was in the water was because someone dove in to grab their drifting lifeboat and pull them back to the ship after someone cut the rope like a dummy. They probably lost their grip on the rope and ended up watching their ship slowly sail away. Leaving them stranded
that actually makes a lot of sense
The theory I saw on another channel is that the baby was dying from the fumes because she was so small.
@@Badficwriterokay but what does that have to do with the disappearance of everyone on the ship?
@@dickjohnson7547it could have rushed their process of getting off the ship quicker if they thought the baby was in peril
40:17 The bloop has been solved for years now. It was an icequake in Antarctica that caused the sound. Basically a huge chunk of ice breaking off the mainland falling in the ocean. Knowing how loud earthquakes are, you don't have to be an expert to understand that an icequake could make a similarly loud sound.
Omg it took me so much scrolling for someone to finally mention it Ik it’s a small part but it still bothered me
The thing about this theory is that there have been icequakes since and the sound has never been replicated. So while it would make sense, the likelihood of it being that and the sound being unreplicable is a little suspicious.
@@theJACKHAMMER13Well we don’t have any other logical explanation, so it’s our best one

Demons and the ocean. Both to me are the unknown.
WE NEED THIS TO BE A SERIES
I totally agree!!
I agree 😏
Yes!!!
For the Mary Celeste, I believe the ship filled with gas, and the crew got on the lifeboat while it aired out. But the plan was to leave the line between the lifeboat and the ship so they could get back on. But it snapped, and the two vessels drifted apart. Some crew tried to swim over and climb back onboard to bring it around but failed and drowned. Hence the scratches on the hull. And the lifeboat later sank, and the bodies of everyone were lost.
It feels to me like the lighthouse story might just be caused by a rogue wave hitting the island. As the fog lowered visibility, crew that was finally getting out of the lighthouse after days of staying inside due to the massive storm could be swiped away without even realizing what was coming. It could also explain the massive localized damage to the the dock.
This is why Aquaman is the more OP than people give him credit for.

Very true! These behemoths of ocean beasts were quite alive especially in the years 1200-1850 rising temperatures, carbon, pollutants, & humans now between all the waste we put in the ocean and the thousands of factories & sonars & mega loud cruise ships, no shot anymore
I remember the lighthouse story. When I heard about it it was said that the most likely scenario was that the men were eating bad meat (possibly dried meat that got wet through the fog or something) which developed a mold which effectively acted as a drug making them sick and delirious, thus they thought that the noises of the waves hitting the lighthouse were noises of a massive storm, and finally something happened that lead to them all falling into the ocean and drowning. I forget the details of that last part.
I'm so glad to know that I'm not the only person terrified of the power of the ocean. It can just wipe out 300,000 people at once, or drag a ship to it's depths.

One of the stories is a whole family of people boating on the Red River (a very turbulent and wide river) none of them could swim yet they kept jumping in one after another and they all drowned.

@@Calendator I'm not the type of person to call myself "-phobic" if my fear is neither overwhelming, nor irrational.
Something else to consider about the Mary Celeste, nowadays, when your ship is sinking, most people's first instinct is to hop into a lifeboat and bail. Back then it was a different story. Lifeboats were very dangerous, and helpless out in open ocean. Generally, people only got in lifeboats if they believed the ship was absolutely beyond saving, a final hail Mary. Even by 1912, people on Titanic were hesitant to get into the lifeboats at first. That's one of the reasons why so many were launched half full. They couldn't find anyone else willing to get in. The thought process was "why would I leave this big, safe, warm ocean liner to get into that dinky little rowboat?" Once it became clear that the ship was doomed, then people rushed into what little lifeboats that were left. There are many stories where ships begin to sink and send off the women and children in the lifeboats, only for the rough Seas to completely overtake the lifeboat and kill everyone. Meanwhile, the ship stays afloat long enough for rescue to arrive, and the only casualties came from attempting escape in the lifeboat. So for the crew of the Mary Celeste to not only get in the lifeboat in the first place, but also cut the rope, whatever it was they were facing must have been DIRE. Unless you are 100% absolutely sure your ship is completely beyond hope, the ship is safer than the lifeboats. At least, Pre-Titanic lifeboats. Modern lifeboats are safe.
What if a well timed explosion? Say the vessel just barely scraped over a sandbar or something right as there was an explosion making a gentle thud that wasn't really more than a nuisance but a horrendous noise that made it sound like the whole damn hull was being ripped apart.
@@joshuaroefs9279 Wouldn't the sailors check to make sure everything was alright before bailing, though? Jumping ship over a loud noise seems premature.
@@joshuaroefs9279 even if they did do this, they'd watch the ship from a distance for a while to see if it sinks before being like "huh I guess it wasn't that bad after all" and then row back to check
They cut the lifeboat, yeah, but that doesn't mean they can't get back on the ship
So the harmless but scary explosion explanation doesn't make sense
Interesting pov, but still I think the only reasonable explanation is Kraken.
@@Darkgun231 Plus if there was scrape over a sandbar wouldn't it tip over the open ink containers? same with the kraken theory
I remember hearing a theory about the Mary Celeste, that the sounding Rod they had was much longer than usual. So when they checked to see how much water was in the hull it looked to be much worse than it actually was. Thus sending people into a panic thinking it was going to start sinking.
The Kass II I believe is a man overboard situation. When you fall off a sailboat without a ladder it’s very very hard to hop back on it. It’s possible they were swimming or something like that and the person who was supposed to stay on board jumped or fell off. This can be explained well by the “stop” on the GPS and then the slow drift. Maybe the fishing guy was the one that was supposed to stay on it and fell off. I saw a video of a group of people who suffered a similar fate but they were able to jump on each others shoulders and jump back on.
While this could be the case if they're all seasoned sailors they'd know better than to jump off a moving ship without a rope attached to them. You never go for a swim when your sail boat has its sails out. If one fell off the others wouldn't jump in after him, they'd take the boat back to the man that fell off. It's just so odd, so many factors.
@@Dhips.Knowing better doesn’t mean something bad can’t happen to you. Or a dumb mistake or accident can’t affect you.

Dude, there’s some scary shit down there- we probably don’t even know half of it
⚰️
@@largeboi4678 we don’t know like 99% of it man. The ocean is fucking terrifying on a deep primal level.
@@amishtechwizard5540 we actually know a vast majority of it
Not many things truly scare me, but one of those things is the ocean. I can go on a boat, I am not afraid of sharks or other beasts underwater, heck I could probably even go diving on a coral reef.
But where that reef ends and the deep water begins, when I can see the blue fading into the blackness of the deep... you will find me in the nearest hotel bar downing shots.
There's a deep, primal fear about the darkness of the ocean abyss. Something that makes me realize how truly small, weak and insignificant humans are and that is enough to both make me panic and scramble to get away and terrify me so much I cannot move.
0/10, will never go swimming in deep waters.
This is honestly one of my favorite videos. Wendigoon makes spooky topics very very interesting. I'd want him as a history teacher ngl
Hearing the story of the Celeste right after the mass hysteria iceberg has me thinking that the crew hallucinated something and just tried to jump ship.
DAILY FUN FACT! About the first ship, there IS a phenomenon that causes people to leave the boat. It's basically a bout of anxiety about being in the middle of the ocean, with no land on sight, that makes people get off the boat. Just like that. They don't care there's no land on sight, the anxiety of being in the middle of the ocean is such that they simply want out. They pack everything, leave everything neatly placed as if they were leaving the appartment they rented for the holidays, grab their stuff and exit the boat... In the middle of the ocean. And the worst thing is that they seem so calm and rational that there might be no way of telling beforehand, so you only find out when you wake up one day and find yourself alone in the boat. It happens even to experienced sailors, and it's pretty much the equivalent to the hallucinations that happen in the middle of snowstorms in extreme climates (the 8000m peaks, the south pole...) and that causes people to just untie themselves from lifelines and willingly wander off (and in the mountains, fall down) never to be seen again.
Sooooo yeah...
I actually saw someone make an educated guess that the ethanol mixed with something else and created toxic fumes that might’ve been in someway harmful to the crew. Either way, they all definitely died in the lifeboat, be it from whatever happened on the ship or from a wave flipping the boat over and drowning them.
@@Maatkara1000 The fumes definitely wouldn't help

Ocean mysteries are my number one 'fearful fascination'. I have done a couple of open water ocean races (including across the Atlantic) and this has only deepened this uneasy/excited feeling. I love living by the sea on an island in the Baltic but also really respect it. Ocean mysteries and sailing also inspired me to write my first novel (The Octagon's Eight) and continue with the theme into the next book and hopefully beyond. I loved this video and you've gained a new subscriber!

The thing about the islands disappearing is actually due to cartographic errors. Its was very commonplace back then to add little fakeouts on ones own maps to avoid people copying them. Things like fake little islands, inexistent roads or small mountains were added as a way to identify fake copies of said maps. This however worked too well and many maps are actually copies of copies of copies of very old maps that originally had said things. There are several examples and they are commonly referred to as "trap streets". Look up Agloe, New York
Wow that’s so interesting! This is one of the reasons why I love this channel, not only is Win informative but the commenters are as well.
It might be that but there was a case of Sannikov Land, the island that disappeared in less then 100 years. Yeah, that was in Arctica and there are not mystical explanations of what could have happened to it, but nevertheless, it really disappeared.
They’re also called paper towns. Sometimes they would add a town name and it would just be like a drug store
Precisely. Not to mention tectonic activity as a culprit being extremely probable. This is honestly not even a debated question anymore.
Not just to avoid plagiarism but also sometimes cartographers didn't actually go to those places, they relied on second hand accounts from sailors and the likes, and either due to exaggeration or misidentification they added or removed zones. These are called phantom islands

44:37 - "The largest structure (Everest) on land can be buried in the ocean and we'd never know"
To add to that: *Mount Everest CAME from the ocean.* The whole mountain range was pushed up from the sea floor by the collision of two continental plates. The highest point on earth was once at the bottom of the sea.
Every landmass "came from the ocean"
That is....wow

41:41 This is actually EXTREMELY common. It's actually expected. Islands can disappear for many reasons. 1. The sea level is rising due to various factors (climate change or not, it's still rising). 2. Volcanic activity destroying the islands. 3. Tectonic plates moving around. Etc etc.

What scares me is the fact that stuff can actually exist in such a hostile environment. Makes me look weak with my dependance on sunlight, fresh water, air, steam summer sales....
Those sea monsters may be able to take our lives, but they'll never get our sweet, sweet steam savings!!
To be fair, both of you would die if your roles were reversed. You would drown, and the sea creature would suffocate. They depend on literally always being submerged in water, whereas humans can be in the water for prolonged periods of time without much negative consequence.
Dependance on Steam summer sales....
I can relate to that so hard
@@gandalf_thegrey same af lol
Extremophiles for the win! Ahaha, I get what you mean, though.
I heard a really good theory about the Mary Celest once, the ship stunk of alcohol and was carrying ethanol. If one of the barrels broke, the ship may have been full of noxious fumes. If the air on the ship was becoming intolerable due to the broken barrel, the captain and crew may have gone on a life boat simply to let the ship air out. the life boat would be tied to the ship so they culled pull themselves back after a few hours. If the rope was not properly secure, the life coat would not be able to catch back up with full sail ship. There was a missing life boat and a single rope trailing in the water behind the ship when it was found. 1 not coming undone might have doomed the entire crew of the Mary Celest.
This makes way too much sense
@@sting-e4494 There is a Maritime Horror episode that describes this theory too.
wow i hate that, i can't imagine the fear and horror as you realise you're going to die. floating in the ocean, no food to eat and no water to drink even though you're surrounded by it. i also don't want to imagine being the dude who fucked up the knot lmao, what a fucking way to go
Huh. Sounds reasonable. There are of course a few concessions like it not being likely that the ENTIRE crew would pile into a single life boat and leave the ship without even a skeleton crew. Granted it could have just been a moment of high stupidity and confidence that nothing would go wrong. Also the rope being cut but i can see someone being crazy enough to do that and doom the whole crew and passengers.
@@liyre4189 That guys the first one that's gonna get eaten.
The Flannan Isles disappearances are definitely due to a rouge wave. The crying and praying is, as Wendigoon said, historically debated. The storm and fog could just be a coincidence or could be the cause of the rouge wave. The description of the state of the island matches what a rouge wave would do to an island. Rouge waves are also confirmed to be responsible for sudden disappearances on small islands. Its also scary to think that a wave will just randomly become so large that it will become larger than your island and sweep you into the ocean, leaving no trace it happened besides some wetness, minimal damage and missing people and items.
I was thinking exactly the same thing. Rouge waves are terrifying
It’d definitely explain the destroyed dock and giant boulder too.
@@AesirUnlimited exactly its too perfect to not be a rouge wave besides it makes a lot more sense than some of the theories mentioned in the video.
The first time I went to the ocean a couple years ago, it tried killing me. I was already scared of it but then I dragged me out to where I couldn't see any land and I was beyond terrified
I can't remember where I read this theory, but I recall someone saying that a likely explanation for the Mary Celeste is that a large vapor explosion happened in the lower decks, and the crew get on the lifeboat not to escape, but just to sit somewhere in open air without any fumes, basically being towed behind the ship while it aired out. The theory posited that they had every intention of returning to the ship, but the rope connecting the lifeboat snapped, and they drifted out into open water with no way to return to the Mary Celeste - hence them leaving their personal belongings behind. If that is what happened, I can't imagine how horrifying it must have been for the crew to watch helplessly as their ship drifted away from them and they were left to die of starvation out at sea.
EDIT: also, I'm probably not the first to mention this, but the bloop has been explained. It was a massive ice shelf in the arctic breaking off and falling into the sea. The section that fell off was so huge that multiple hydrophones picked it up.
On the Mary Celeste, that makes sense. I figured it had something to do with the fumes from the alcohol as soon as I heard what the cargo was, though a rope snapping and being cut look noticeably different. On the Bloop... that's just what they want you to think lol. Do you really think they would tell us if they found Cthulu? All of the sailors on cargo vessels would quit immediately and we wouldn't be able to ship any goods! The arctic ice shelf just sounds too convenient an explanation, especially since it fits nicely in with global warming narratives🤔
Climate change: the spookiest monster of all
Not sure if ice vibrates in the same way as a set of vocalisations do. Ice quakes are typically a series of sharp, creaking pops. The bloop is like a huge, long undulation and much less like a creaky pop.
@@badbuddha93 yeah the guy has gotten confused the bloop was ice rubbing together not breaking
No one knows what the bloop was. There is speculation but nothing more. I wouldn't put it past military shenanigans or who knows what.
i visited a museum in australia years ago while there was an octopus/sea creatures exhibition. they showed a taxidermy of this one giant octopus but the way they showed it was by putting it in a tall vertical glass box next to the staircase so they could show that this damn octopus has a length as long as a THREE FLOOR BUILDING… also that octopus taxidermy gives off such creepy vibe i literally got goosebumps. i even refused to look in its direction at all cost while using the stairs. hands down one of the scariest things ive ever come across in my life

@@littlebumblebee9202 yet so far, we're only making it bigger😢
Really great video!! I love all the work you do.
My personal theory for what happened to the Mary Celeste is based off the one proposed by Joe Scott.
The ship is sailing like normal and as it gets further into warmer waters the alcohol begins to evaporate and create strong fumes and explosions. It gets to the point the fumes are so bad that the passengers and crew are having trouble breathing so they decide to open the hatches and air out the ship. The plan is to move everyone onto a single life boat for a few minutes until the ship is more breathable then bring everyone back on board. Since its temporary they only need the one boat and everyone can leave their things behind. Due to the fumes everyone is rushing onto the boats (maybe someone stumbled and thats why the compass was knocked over?) and in their haste the crew member lowering the lifeboat ties a less than stellar knot. After everyone enters the boat the weight of all the passengers in one lifeboat puts strain on the crappy knot and it comes undone. With the sails half raised the ship picks up enough wind that the lifeboat cant catch up and everyone is stranded on the ocean in a single lifeboat with no supplies or belongings.
Maybe it's just cause I was raised by someone who dreamed of being an ocean biologist, but I have the exact opposite feeling to you; the fact that it's so unknown and unexplored and that there's these weird and wacky creatures and phenomena surrounding it is half-comforting and half-mesmerizing to me, like it just stokes that wonder and desire to explore the unknown for me.
I got excited with the time theory and forgot to debunk some lighthouse theories lol. Short version: 1.) The idea that a (undetectable yet powerful) storm destroyed the west dock and dragged the men to sea is not supported because the east dock was in good condition with boxes stacked where as a storm strong enough to drag men to see would likely cause disarray and 2.) The theory that all three quickly ran outside to respond to an emergency before a wave swept them off the cliff is also not supported because of the shut doors within the house and courtyard, implying there was no rush. Furthermore, both theories are not supported by the presence of the jacket (they each only had one), as no one would step outside without wearing one in that weather. Especially if they had enough time to shut every door behind them.

i was watching this with a friend, and he told me we’ve never even found an adult colossal squid before. we’ve only seen baby or adolescent ones, which is clear due to underdeveloped reproductive systems as well as remains of colossal squids being far larger than any we’ve discovered. with the adolescents being so enormous, it’s totally possible the myths of the kraken or other insanely large ocean creatures could’ve stemmed from something like an adult colossal squid, it’s pretty cool to think about

@@ES-ix6ll especially when you consider that the juveniles are about 30 feet in length.

Paradoxical deep sea gigantism is actually a topic of ongoing study. Relatives of those cute little isopoda woodlice you might know as 'rolly pollies' grow to the size of small dogs in the deep ocean, and that's about approximate for the effect in general. The presently accepted duct-taped guess on the pit of unknowns is that bigger bodies are healthier in lower temperatures.
The kraken definitely did it dude, makes the most logical sense. I’ve known sailors my whole life and there are basically almost no situations where you full abandon ship into the open ocean other than the vessel being sunk. Maybe all 9 went into a state of psychosis from an especially loud boom and crowd mania set in?

Great video, I'd like to pitch in another sea monster story:
The USS Stein, an American frigate, found scratches over around 8 percent of its sonar dome. Almost all of the scratches had within them small claws that were found to be similar to those found within the suckers of a giant squid. However, these claws were substantially larger than those of the giant squid's, which, if these claws hold similar proportions to the creature's body size, would point to an absolutely massive squid. I was unable to find exact numbers on claw length, but "way bigger than giant squid" is already too much.
These stories are so damn cool. The ocean is so believable to be full of monsters
Deez stories are nuts
Most likely a colossal squid, its a deep sea squid bigger then the giant squid, they tend to fight sperm whales a lot so you'll find scratch marks on them when they come up for air. Largest recorded colossal squid weighed 495kg(1,091 lbs) and was 13 meters long(43 feet) and thats just the largest one we've seen, there are definitely bigger ones.
Maybe was a regular giant squid with abnormally large suckers
I have a friend that was on a carrier for a few years in the pacific. He was talking to us one day about getting to swim out there, in the middle of the pacific. And was telling us about diving a few feet under, looking around and just seeing the infinite void, getting darker and darker the deeper you go.

Your monologue about WHY the ocean is so terrifying is spot on. My husband and I went to Grand Cayman for our honeymoon to swim with the stingrays. It's was beautiful crystal clear water about 15-20 feet deep at most. But about 100 yards away was an area where a bunch of waves were crashing. So my husband, being curious, swam over to take a closer look. He said what he saw was terrifying. Apparently that was where the ocean shelf was located and it was a sheer drop into black nothingness. The guide also told us that's where the sharks liked to hang out. Horrific.
Did you go to the Caymans just to see the stingrays? You don’t have to answer that question.
i remember seeing that kind of drop off a few times in the uk at various places. terrifying!!
this gave me goosebumps. that picture of the guy swimming over the dropoff over the abyss is terrifying
I also swam over the drop-off and looked down. I was 8. And scared. Although I saw the bottom....I was 8 though🤷♀️
The thing is I'm not terrified of sharks, respectfully scared but not terrified as I can fight them if need be. You can't fight nothing, or the depths
one thing i love in horror movies about the ocean is when they are so deep they don't know what way is up, they are just suspended an an abyss of pure unending darkness, and unlike being in a dark room where you can navigate to a wall or something and have some sense of direction you are just completely lost and disoriented, you could travel miles in any direction and possibly never find anything but darkness, and most of all you just know you are not alone in the ocean
Of all phobias, Thalassophobia is probably the most understandable to me. Every other phobia usually has some straightforward means of avoiding the fear response, but if you go out onto the open ocean, you do so with the knowledge that you are putting your life into the sea's hands. The power of the ocean is something you have to see to truly understand and believe. Just watching a video of it is not enough. Until you are on the deck of a ship and looking up to a wall of water as tall as high rise office building, you just don't get it. It is *awesome* in the most literal definition of that word. Even a colossal ship, like international cargo freighter, can be picked up and tossed around like a leaf if the seas are angry enough.

Here's why the island disappearing is probably wrong: it was common back in the day for map makers to put fake places in their maps. The reasoning is to find copycats. Some map makers would just copy the last guys map rather than go out and chart everything themselves. So map maker #1 could sue map maker #2 if he saw the fake island.
If the island was faked then how come the original cartographer never made a claim of literally everyone copying his map.
As well as that I’m also pretty sure that the practice of putting fake places on a map to sue people doesn’t date back to the 1500s since copyright wasn’t a thing :/

I'm scared of the ocean for a complete different reason, not because of the complete ambiguity and mystery surrounding it but because of the science and what we do know about it, since humans aren't designed or made to be underwater, the idea of diving into the ocean and just suddenly dying because of the various diving hazards like decompression and Delta P which is something that we do know but fail to consider scares me more than anything so it's cool to see your perspective about the ocean in a different way
I'm not really scared of the sharks and animals in the ocean. I'm just scared that it can be deep, dark and you cant touch the bottom like a swimming pool

Delta-P isn't a thing in nature really. It needs a small hole with lower pressure than the surrounding water. Pressure differentials don't last long in nature very often. Something something, abhors a vacuum.
But yeah, in the context of industrial diving, Delta-P is fucking terrifying.
My ex boyfriend's grandfather was a marine biologist who worked for the US government. He said his grandfather never went into the ocean & feared it. That solidified to me, that there must be something in the ocean so terrifying that a grown man who studies it won't even go into it.

I've heard a Mary Celeste theory that it could have been the vapors getting really bad (can't remeber why). So bad, that the crew got into a lifeboat which was meant to be dragged after the ship while it aired out. Somehow though, the lifeboat became untethered and by then, they couldn't catch up to the ship again.
