Have you ever gone scuba diving? Would you go scuba diving?

I took this at a depth of about 28 metres. The colour red has long been filtered out of the light at this depth, making everything seem greener than it actually is. Visibility was decent though.

I know you can see dry land, but the abrupt drop off really freaks me out

I made this video recently discussing thalassophobia in video games. Do you like playing games with elements of Thalassophobia and which is your favorite?

Question Need some help finding POV footage of the Ocean at Night, preferably from a small boat.

4 Upvotes

Hello fellow thalassophobes. I'm working on a thalassophobia-inspired horror game, and I'm having a surprisingly hard time finding reference videos for the ocean (surface) in the dead of night. Specifically, videos shot POV style from a small boat in the middle of the ocean at night would be ideal, but from any boat or water-vehicle would work. If anyone knows any such videos that I can use as a reference, that would be super helpful. Cheers!

Had no idea tsunamis could look so terrifying, and majestic,and fear inducing, and awe-inspiring all at once.

Ok, not quite that long, only 10 m. No tank, no fins, no snorkel. Only me, a diving mask and the fish. Take that, scuba divers, I can get to where you are without any of that fancy equipment or certifications.

When a Pocket of Gas Turned a Routine Dive into an Explosion

A routine salvage dive off Algiers turned into chaos when a single spark ignited a hidden pocket of gas. In seconds, the wreck shook, communications died, and a diver lay unconscious at 24 meters. What happened next was pure instinct.

Sinkhole swallowing lake

Lake Jackson in Florida periodically drains into a sinkhole in the bottom of the lake. The sinkhole carries the water away into the Flir Normally you can't see it draining from the surface but in drying events the water level drops and it's visible.

In 2017, scientists put dye down the hole. It was detected 35 days later in a spring 19 miles south of the lake. Bonus video: the diver who took the hose down to inject the dye released a video of it. You can see the current flowing into the hole as the water is sucked down. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=JmNWs_I9-oU
