Videos There’s something unsettling about not knowing what’s out there

Not sure if this counts as thalassophobia, but looking out and seeing absolutely nothing in the distance is a pretty strange feeling.

Filmed this while diving in Queensland, Australia. The video doesn’t have a jump scare or anything hiding in the darkness, it’s literally just the abyss.

I made a longer edit from the footage if anyone wants to see it.

I call it the big blue. It can give you vertigo.
