The smooth water surface looks very friendly. But if you think about what lies under it ...
1. First, the ocean is damn deep.
The ocean is so deep that it is hard to imagine such a depth. About her, even think terrible.
2. It is well known that the pressure in the ocean is so strong that with the human body it will do about the same as what happened to this poor watermelon ...
Only if you are not James Cameron, of course, and can not build a steep bathyscaphe, which will lower to any depth.
3. Most of the ocean looks like this:
Black-black blackness around. So if you are afraid of the dark, better stay somewhere on the shore.
4. Although it is not bad that the bottom is dark. Otherwise, you can see monsters there, like these:
Fish toothfish
Giant Squid
Ax Fish
Such a cosmic hell is obtained ...
5. And in the ocean live arthropods the size of your head.
They say they eat human souls. And it's easy to believe in it, you know.
6. Oceanic spiders do not slap a slipper.
Yes, alas, from them even on the ocean floor you can not hide.
7. In the mud, oceanic worms, more like ropes, seem to hide.
And such, with the help of which you can drag 20 tons. Or even trains ...
8. I have no idea what it is.
But I do not even doubt that it is completely unfriendly and will not stand on ceremony for a long time.
9. Scientists believe that about 80% of all living creatures of the planet live in the ocean.
To at least roughly imagine how much this is, remember every little animal and every insect that you ever met on earth, and multiply the figure by ... billion. Counting may be inaccurate, but is this so important?
10. Because the sunlight does not reach the bottom, the plants are not there. Only beings consisting of flesh. Only hardcore.
You must have considered the starfish to be nice? If so, take a look at how a hundred of these "cuties" devour a whale ...
11. Ugly fish scurry through the depths of the sea and eat everything that comes their way.
It's a goblin shark, and it can live in your nightmares ^ _ ^
12. An interesting fact: many of the ocean inhabitants have teeth ... It looks ridiculous, but I do not want to see this next to me.
13. Underwater geyser, from which sulfur flows. Approach this, and the skin with the muscles will quickly separate from the bones.
But the most terrible thing is that near it and in it live organisms that are resistant to sulfur. Almost like stalkers.
14. Sometimes it's snowing under water.
Well, in fact it is, of course, no snow. Just small particles of feces, bacteria and other organic substances.
15. The underwater world is like an alternative reality. In which there is a translucent fish, for example.
Tennis balls in her head are eyes. And black on the muzzle - God forgive me, my nostrils.
16. It's pretty scary to realize that a person has mastered less than 5% of the ocean.
Actually, there are more maps from Mars than descriptions of the sea depths.
17. Therefore, we can not know what or who is waiting for us under the water.
That's why jokes with the ocean are bad. Very bad. Sometimes even deadly bad.
