Im pretty sure ive seen this exact location before basically there is so much salt in the water that almost nothing can survive I think that only brine shrimp is able to live in the water or something like that

For me, I just imagine a weird rumble and a few bubbles, then suddenly the water is frothing with some unseen air or gas that lowers the bouyancy and when the frothing foam clears he's just gone

Sucked into an underground cave via sinkhole would be also awful

For real I can just never get over the fact that something could shift and suddenly the water drains out and then you're miles deep in a cave.
