Fear! Such a tricky thing... .
I actually have a practical answer and a deeper semi philosophical one (which I might post in the weekend community - nice challenge!)
The practical fear the that truly creeps me out is... Wreck diving! But not just wreck diving it's a specific combination of deep ocean and going INSIDE of a sunken ship that gets me. I watched a couple of documentaries of how they found the titanic or world War 2 wrecks and I cannot for the life of me see myself swimming inside a dark hull! "TO DO WHAT?!? What are you hoping to see Gyanno?!?"
I seriously imagine dead bodies, skeletons, sea 'monster' fish, lots of rust and just darkness....
Haha I'm getting chills just thinking about it... I mean I get exploring but you can leave those to the underwater robocams things!
On a much lighter note, here's me snorkeling at a tugboat wreck here in Curacao... Notice how sunny and light it is.. Also notice how I'm NOT inside! 🤣🤣🤣
Hmm, This is an interesting one. Maybe it's the confined space? Maybe it's the thought of being trapped in there, under water with a limited supply of oxygen? I mean, I think it would be cool to explore like that but yeah, I'm not a huge fan of the ocean. I like walking next it, maybe someone could coax me to walk in it just a little bit...But yeah, otherwise it's best left alone as far as I'm concerned.
Great photo, you look like a merman. Lol.
Have a think about the post in the community...Could be a good one.

Haha I will take that merman compliment 😎.
Confined space definitely, but also because I imagine people just drowning in there, it's a dark thought but not everyone gets out of those wrecks... And what am I hoping to see is a real question...
Keep walking on the side! It's safe 😃
I have never drowned, of course, but I wouldn't imagine it's a good way to go...It would take some time until the lack of oxygen made one pass out and that time-factor wold leave one with what I could only think would be fear. Of course, once it was all over all would be well.

tokens.That's a very nice picture. How warm is the water?
Thanks! I had to look this up do according to this interesting looking website it's between 27c and 29c 😎
