0:10 "You're on a boat for a little fishing trip."

Step 1 : Don't go that trip.

"if you're vegetarian" no one is going to stay vegetarian on the middle of the ocean.

I know it's not drowning that everyone is scared off, it's the massive creatures lurking beneath the ocean

[fn]

Fun fact: the guy at 2:58 was actually stranded in the ocean after being left alone by a diving class and being taken away by a storm. The video is recorded on the camera he had with him and he is recording his last words. He was later rescued by a helicopter though

There was a story of a guy who survived 76 days at sea. Poor bastard said eff it an tried to kill himself by drowning at like day 60 or something. But then had a change of heart in the middle an managed to survive. So so crazy

I swear I spent like an hour on this channel watching these videos getting myself scared of things I was not afraid of before-_-

[becausejeongyeon]

This is literally my worst fear and why i hate any sort of water

[montecarlo]

That movie Open Water scared the hell out of me. It was based on a true story of a couple who were unintentionally abandoned in the ocean during a group scuba diving trip in 1998. Being abandoned in the middle of the ocean in terrifying enough by itself. Add in nightfall, and it's a whole other level of horror. I don't scuba dive myself. I have been on deep sea fishing trips but I refused to get out of the boat and swim that far out in the ocean, due to that very thing, fear of being left. After watching Open Water, I tried to imagine myself in that situation. My plan would be, if at all possible. get to a buoy. Buoy's have platforms, so I would climb up on it and stay there, so as to get out of the water and stave off hypothermia. Plus, a buoy could mean that I am in a shipping lane, so I may eventually see a boat. Now, all that is probably easier said than done, but that would be my plan anyway.
