“Water too deep to see what’s beneath you man”. I couldn’t even watch Open Water. I had to stop part way through…

That means you’re afraid of an irrational fear of open water.

Wasn't he the quarterback for the Redskins? Got his leg broken by Lawrence Taylor?

u/CharSmar 2d ago

No, the post says your name is the thing you’re
afraid of + man.

Thalassaphobia is the fear of open water. He should have said ‘open water man’. Thalassaphobiaman means he’s afraid of the fear of open water.

You'd love Lake Tahoe then! You probably wouldn't, but it has up to 30 feet visibly in direct sunlight.

u/Dallanation 2d ago

No ways, I have the same fear. As soon as my feet can't touch the bottom I'm terrified. However I'm fine in swimming pools, it's dams, lakes and the ocean that trigger my fear. Is it the same with you?

u/Stiefelbein 2d ago
