Just waiting for the leviathan to wrap around him and drag him down.

u/Old-Beautiful1786 19h ago

that's the best part of lying in that saltwater. Nothing thrives in it.

u/100_cats_on_a_phone 19h ago

Until it does

u/Illustrious_Emu5131 17h ago

Life, uh, finds a way.

u/Old-Beautiful1786 15h ago

They wouldn't be calling it dead sea now then.

u/Mobile-Bar7732 15h ago

microscopic life lives in the Dead Sea, including specific types of salt-tolerant bacteria, archaea (such as Haloferax volcanii), and single-celled algae like Dunaliella.

Until these little guys mutant to much larger versions...

You underestimate irrationality.

u/ConstantSwordfish160 16h ago

Also if you notice, because the high amount of salt it makes the water especially buoyant so things can get in the water and float without having to swim as you can see the man doin

3

u/Ok-Hyena4541 14h ago

You can also do that in any water by being fat

u/Normiss2000 13h ago

Exactly. So, logically...

u/FlyinWet 8h ago

I take baths all the time I'd say I thrive in saltwater.

u/rewas456 18h ago

Yeah dude... Subnautica really fucked me up with any water deeper than my toilet bowl.

u/original_username89 10h ago

Right?? Like if I can’t see the bottom and all the sides I’m not going in.

u/cuterosalie 19h ago

can’t be dragged down in water that salty. you can still drown in it though, face down and unable to roll back over

u/Level_Abrocoma8925 19h ago

Bro misunderstood the meaning of swimsuit.

u/Melodic_Marsupial489 19h ago

Thats like 70 percent salt 30 percent water. Instant dehydration type shit

Kills warts

u/Minimum-Mention-3673 14h ago

My left foot so needs it. So annoyed

4

u/iCanReadMyOwnMind 14h ago

For realizies. Pour and stir salt into water in a container until the salt starts piling up on the bottom. Once the water is at the saturation point, soak your hands or feet until they become pruney. Repeat for a few days until the cluster falls out of the socket.

1

u/Minimum-Mention-3673 14h ago

Even plantar warts?

u/iCanReadMyOwnMind 10h ago

Yep

u/wildagain 19h ago

his shirt and jeans were navy blue the first time he went in 5 minutes before this

u/lostmyparachute 19h ago

That's a very salty water judging from the buoyancy

30

u/Sega_Saturn_Shiro 18h ago

The bouyancy tipped you off? Not the massive salt deposit walls?

u/Successful_Pin_2641 19h ago

His eyes probably sting

Ever see SLC Punk? “Sink, you fool!”

u/AbyssWalker112 19h ago

It's nice seeing him float on the water. My thalassophobia just kicked in when I realized how deep it is

11

u/SpaGrapefruit 18h ago

This freaks me out.

7

u/Simp_Collector1 19h ago

It must be so salty and dense that all he can do is float. Looks fun! I’d be wearing goggles though 🥽

6

u/Eustacebagge3 19h ago

I know that water is far too salty for complex life. Still utterly terrifying.

15

u/Veil_Jubilant 19h ago

uhhhmmm, i wouldnt even dare put myself in there, looks scary

u/WhiteSandSadness 19h ago

No anxiety whatsoever of some random ass creature reaching up for you, huh? Must be nice 😅

u/butterfly-blades 19h ago

I wonder if itd be easier to learn to swim in water like this

1

u/Putinsuckedmeoff 13h ago

You get completly fucked if you get it in your eye or sallow the water. Wouldn“t recommend.

u/SoberAlternative 18h ago

Where is this place? Looks like the middle of nowhere…

u/some_dude1990 18h ago

Pretty sure this is Siwa Oasis in Egypt

1

u/SoberAlternative 16h ago

Thanks for the response- it’s truly beautiful 👍🏼

2

u/laidback4sho 16h ago

No, this isn't the middle of nowhere - that's where Courage the Cowardly Dog lives. This has got to be somewhere else.

3

u/Pollo__Arrosto 11h ago

Where is this place located?

2

u/UpvoteForPancakes 19h ago

None for me, thanks.

2

u/princeofottawa 17h ago

Looks scary to me

5

u/Can-You-Fly-Bobby 19h ago

That'll be a fuck no! from me anyway

7

u/KalozKapitany 19h ago

I you can swim it's no different from a shallow pool

8

u/Can-You-Fly-Bobby 19h ago

Oh i get that. And I'm guessing you don't even need to be able to swim given the amount of salt in that water.

But that's no shallow pool! r/thalassophobia

1

u/Oldgamer1807 19h ago

That's fun and/or terrifying.

1

u/WatashiwaNobodyDesu 19h ago

Oh look, a nope hole.

1

u/Ovibros 19h ago

His pecker will sting like hell

u/Commercial_Handle418 19h ago

What if I start pumping out the water 😈

u/preach_untitled 19h ago

It cool and all but do you know what is inside 😅

What is deep?

1

u/dburr10085 18h ago

What if you have a cut?

1

u/According-Sky-8238 17h ago

Crazy as crap.

1

u/Blast_Beets 17h ago

Fun to float on but probably feels terrible on your skin. Tight and raisin-y as soon as he gets out 😬

1

u/TheDebonairQuokka 17h ago

Would shrinkage increase in such saline waters?

1

u/Miserable-Hornet 16h ago

Horror movie now he’s gonna split into 2 and ones evil

1

u/TheCh0rt 16h ago

Man I bet that feels so good on the bones. I would love to feel fully suspended like that, going against gravity.

1

u/BilboBaginsehs 15h ago

And every scrape, scratch, and opening will BURN.

This looks.. not so fun to me

1

u/MariahSins 11h ago

That reads as a dug salt pit to me, not deep ocean.

1

u/Apprehensive_Golf724 8h ago

This gives me anxiety.

1

u/notepad987 7h ago

Then a monster from the deep came up and ate him...

1

u/Pinkfangsugar 7h ago

That one sperm that just stayed behind chilling

1

u/Academic-Ad-8089 7h ago

it reminds me a lot of Yellowstone’s morning glory pool… I was very concerned about the temperature and if he would start screaming when he went in, then I realized it was a normal temperature and not a hot spring

1

u/energy1256 6h ago

Like a cenote. Looks relaxing! Until....🐙🦑 !!

u/UniverseBear 4h ago

Then you find out you got some scratches on you.

u/EffectiveTradition53 18h ago

Criminal that Ashcroft got sued by Stones lawyers (seriously, motherfuck the Rolling Stones Legal Team) over a fucking sample and lost all their royalties for a while. That entire saga is just so emblematic of why the music industry is kryptonite for actual creatives.

u/iCanReadMyOwnMind 14h ago

So the story behind this is that the water is so saturated with salt that it is extremely dense and makes it almost impossible sink in. Almost.
