  • Are you afraid of deep water?
    -----------------------
    *There's a wee error in the video!
    The Inner Sound between Raasay & Applecross is 324m, so my "deepest water until St Kilda" is wrong!
    I should've known that, seeing I know Applecross well 😬🫣
    Anyway, maybe a submarine -dodging swim there next..?!

    I am a very strong swimmer, I"m not necessarily afraid of drowning, but I do fear deep water.

    That looks scary but at least Loch Morar has clear waters. Loch Ness is so dark and murky because of its high peat content

    Good video. There’s something very intriguing about having so much fresh water below you. I bet it’s effing freezing though! Random fact- the bottom of the Loch is actually deeper than the uk’s continental shelf!

    I think back to this video every few months, theres just something fascinating about it. Its on my bucket list to ride out from finland to norway and swim in one of the cold lakes surrounded by mountains, maybe the arctic ocean too

    I went for a swim in there last year. It’s mad how it’s so shallow and then as soon as you go out a wee bit there’s this huge drop! It was so clear that day. Got eaten alive by clegs though . Great video! I for sure never went out that far !

      How? What do you like about it? To me just thinking about it freaks me out so much. NOT SEEING what is in front of me. I have had some scares as a kid at the beach, so i got lowkey traumatize by stepping on animals that create a alergic reaction and you can't even walk till you get cortisol, hitting my feet at rocks, disgusting alguee. I can't handle what i cannot see. How do you even enjoy it at all?

      They only eat fish. One attacked a speedboat August 1969 after the boat rammed it. The 2 fishermen retaliated with a boat oar and a shotgun blast to the flank. They got a good look at it. It looked like a 30-40 foot long neck big elephant-like body very close to a giant Moray Eel. It was brown and black. Google a image of a pliesiosaur. That's what they look like. Not scary (yeah right) 😅

      @caldamac  Год назад +3

      No, Loch Mòrar has the deepest point.
      On average, I'm not sure which is deeper. Loch Ness contains more water though.

    • @TFGStokez
      @TFGStokez 11 месяцев назад

      loch ness is the largest by volume, loch lomond is the largest by area and loch morar is the deepest, i nearly camped here to paddleboard it, but ended up staying on the rivers silver sands instead.. glad i didn’t paddle the loch after all now 😂
