I'm scared of the ocean big time. Sometimes, I imagine myself lost at in the ocean. I have a great fear of the unknown like sharks and squids and stuff. Also because i wont know what is beneath me.

wow I can't believe that thing can come out of the water that high...u realize how much strength that thing must have to do that....crazy

and about the question....well during the DAY...im cool with the ocean...if I was out in the ocean at night I would have a heart attack......I don't think the sharks would bother me though b/c I would shit all over myself and that prolly wouldn't taste to great

so me being retarded decides, ok i have to go get her, i come out about half way at the breakpoint, and notice that theres this even bigger swell coming up.

well, at this point i'm more scared for her, until i notice that this thing, which is probably one of the larger waves i've seen, is going to glide past her and break right ontop of me.


so as you'd expect i decide to dive, got caught in an undercurrent, and wound up about 10 feet past her in about 2 seconds. it scared the shite out my parents, but i was like whatever, got my sister, went back to shore... no big deal...


so yeah, i know how to swim
