Bad and dangerous divers in my group or as a buddy. I keep thinking they're going to get themselves and myself in trouble.

The thought of being low on air and seeing a Crocodile above me.


What if the crocodile has an octopus? :p
 
One thing that made me a bit uncomfortable one time was while doing a night dive a school of relativly large bait fish just abpeared out of nowhere and would just fly by us very quickly, not the normal behavor i tend to see. they would just pop out of the darkness and strait past us, in our heads something was chasing them. the thought was a bit creepy. there's probably a shark or something lingering around us just out side the beem of my light.
 
It may sound silly but descending in a lake where I can't see the bottom. In the ocean I am fine but in lakes even the one I grew up on it still gives me the willies every time I descend and can't see the bottom. 150 foot descent in the ocean is fine but 40 feet in a lake? Yup still give me shivers.
 
No particular occasion other than a few seconds of adrenalin rush and the ensuing sphincter pucker.

This happened when I did not immediately recognize the path in front of me after a sharp turn, 800 feet in a cave.

The Empress of Ireland, I have not been there but was told of the spirit of a teenage victim haunting it.

The encounter of witch was possibly brought on by a dark narc, who knows...

The ocean liner sank two years before the Titanic and more than a thousand lives were lost. It went down in 14 minutes, in ice cold waters.

It lies in 140 feet in the St-Lawrence estuary, dark cold waters, strong currents and a gloomy environment make it a challenging dive.

A few years ago two divers lost their way and died a horrible death inside the hull. They were found in a cabin, the place bore traces of fighting, probably caused by panicked divers running out of air and fighting for the last remaining puffs. They could see outside trough a porthole.

A dark aura surrounds the place.
 
Well I'm glad thats the last post I read before bed. Here come the nightmares. :wink:
