Flying, spiders, supernatural things, mould on food and the Labour Party (joke for the News and political forum people on here) there are some irrational fears that people have and I, up to today when I was driving my Yaris from Sainsbury's to Tesco's, that I realise I have one. And it is really really irrational.

My fear is this.

Fear of the depth of oceans.

Perhaps bigger font is needed

Fear of the depth of oceans

I imagine me jumping off a boat, in the Pacific, for a swim. Now I would not be worried about the waves or the sea creatures etc, mid pacific there are few, but that actual depth of water beneath me. A dark, deep, deep depth to which I could get sucked into like a black hole.

I guess it is a bit like reverse vertigo where you cannot look over a cliff in fear of falling over it.

Has anyone else got this fear?

1) No

2) Yes.

3) Not until you mentioned it, thanks pal, I will never be able to hire a pedalo again.

Is it just me?
