A submarine passed beneath some scuba divers in Waikiki, Hawaii on Friday. The divers were exploring the YO-257 shipwreck when the Atlantis submarine suddenly loomed into view beneath them.

I experienced a spooky moment in 2008 where there was a ship coming towards me while I was swimming. I was freaking out because I'd read articles about people losing their lives to ships because the ship crew didn't see the people swimming. And they ended up sailing right into the paths of the people swimming. The crew did see me though, which was a relief.

It looks like diving is just one long spooky moment.

white submarines aren't all that spooky.

if I met a black one, yes, that would spook me to the highest level. but not a white one.

Anyone has the submachanophobia vibes?

[tjnugent]

Yes it is a tourist attraction. Too bad. It would be a lot more ominous to see an attack sub under you.

Just pray they don’t use a sonar. Good by hearing or potentially your life if you’re close enough.

Although it's a tourist attraction, i would be scared as fuck if i would see a military submarine swimming near me, mostly if it's nuclear. Nuclear submarines are one of the bost expensive military tools, destroying them is a good thing for enemy armies. One misunderstanding from the military, and they could consider me as a mine planter, and kill me without the protection of the law, simply by using a sonar.

Its a civil submarine.... whats spooky about it?

[TempestMMR]

That’s not a military submarine at all

[HesitateLeaf]

Couldn’t that thing kick on its sonar and kill them accidentally? Or did they know they were there? Was it not capable of doing that?
