About 40m deep it says. (Oh alright, 131' to americans). Freshwater at the surface overlying saltwater below about 14m (46').

Having been to Palawan, I’m most impressed by the fact that there isn’t a massive crowd of tourists floating around with them. That...

Your dedication to proper capitalisation gladdens me.

Why does that make me anxious?

Well for me personally it's the tripophobia, seeing all those holes and openings in the rocks creeps me tf out.

Because now you will see the Monster coming.

But it’s a lake

Which is worse, fresh water is less buoyant than salt water, thus, harder to stay afloat...

I LOVE swimming in the sea/lakes/rivers, but this still makes me very anxious and I had to stop watching

My wife won't swim in anything she can't see the bottom of. I've scuba'd over the continental shelf.

6 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

It goes beyond that, there's also the realization you cant move half as fast in water as on land. And most things in the water are fast.

6 years ago | Likes 66 Dislikes 0

I mean.. it’s also called Barracuda Lake..

6 years ago | Likes 9 Dislikes 0

Not necessarily the condition itself but the entire fear of it. For me its not that I cant see. It's that when I do see it's likely too late

6 years ago | Likes 26 Dislikes 0

At least if you see a monster down a hallway, there's a chance of mobile egress. Staring down deep and you see an eldritch being, that's it

Exactly. That water is *just* clear enough to give you about 2 seconds to see the Lake Beast reach up & bite your legs off at the knee.

Every one at any point in their lives can be a yes or a nope. Respect their perspective because god forbid yours ever changes.
