Fun thread... much better than trolling people over their gear configurations!
Unfortunately, I don't get bothered by things that are an actual threat (sharks, props, etc.) What freaks me out is all these weird little invertebrates. Crawly little, sea slugs, arrow crabs, mantis shimp.... don't even get me started about sea cucumbers... OMG Horseshoe crabs! stay the hell away from me!
I don't trust invertebrates, never have. I know they have some agenda and by the time I figure it out, it could be too late.
I remember I used to clean the occasional boat hull and every little isopod that got knocked of the hull would instantly swim over and latch onto my wetsuit, hood and beard. Aside from the nightmare of getting them to let go of the wetsuit, the sensation of them wriggling in my beard was awful.
