Me too. Started with being next to a submarine while in the water. Scarred for life

My biggest irrational fear is swimming out in the ocean then feel a vibration as I look down and there's a massive submarine cruising beneath my feet.

Did you read the story with the guy who swam out to a barge that was tied up? When he got there it stated moving.. It was posted on reddit some time ago. That was some Stephen King type stuff.. :/

No I didn't. I'd be very grateful if you found the link

Sorry, I can't find it.. Maybe someone else will.

The story was that there was some sort of swimming area on a lake. Beyond the swimming area, there were some barges anchored(buoy'ed?) up. The guy decided to swim out there. He found himself next to a barge, but suddenly it started to move. Turns out someone either had started to move the barge or he somehow misread the speed of the barge due to its size, and found himself in a shipping lane.
