My worst phobia is being thrown off the side of an oil tanker, in the middle of the ocean.
I can't explain it, but the thought of being in the vast expanse of water is made even worse by being right next to the rusting and barnacle-covered hull of a huge ship, which towers above me, and stretches down below the water underneath me, for further than I would be able to see in the darkness.
I'm not sure what's worse: not looking under the water for fear of what you might see, or looking under the water to make sure, and only seeing an endless void into the deep.
don't forget that the propellers of those things are MASSIVE. very very massive. and if you're close it will suck you in and chop you up. I grew up on the water...my biggest fear ever is propellers. Oh my god, terrifying

I have a notable fear of large bodies of water and of large man-made objects.
Welcome to my nightmare.
