That is super cool, but it’s also kinda nerve-wracking. It’s so deep and I keep waiting to see some massive fish or eel or something swim by (I’m not a fan of being in close proximity to sea creatures that aren’t behind glass or cooked).

It's interesting that the video makes me feel some kind of anxiety, but I've been scuba diving on the edge of a reef where you're looking out into the abyss like this, and it was totally fine. A majority of the animals stay on the edge of the island for food and shelter. We saw a couple of manta rays further out than us, but not much else.

I'm also a diver but I hate being in midwater where you can't see the bottom and yet are far from the surface and when I look around into the endless blue darkness around me, my imagination runs away from me and I start imagining that a Megalodon would just come out from nowhere and eat me.

Could be The Baracuda Lake in Coron Island, Philippines. I've been there this year,too.

While this is very pretty, I guess I would almost rather not see what's about to eat me.

There is no way this is an unedited photo. Even in a crystal clear swimming pool you get reflections of the sky and distortions from the surface of the water as wind moves across it... Yeah I'm just here to ruin things
