Terrifying simulation 'unlocks new fear' in people after showing reality of how deep the ocean is

Terrifying simulation 'unlocks new fear' in people after showing reality of how deep the ocean is

Zack D Films is back at it again with a terrifying YouTube simulation

Many people have admitted to unlocking a phobia they didn't even know they had after watching this terrifying ocean simulation.

While the fear of deep water isn’t something unusual, usually, the deep water in question is nothing more than swimming in the ocean, minutes from the shore.

Of course, that’s still pretty deep but it could always be deeper.

So deep in fact, that you could build several skyscrapers on top of one another from the seabed and still wouldn’t break the surface of the water.

Unfortunately, one YouTuber has scared people s***less with his simulation of the deepest part of the sea, and now those who didn’t consider themselves phobic have had a ‘new fear unlocked’.

Zack D Films has made a name for himself for creating the scariest videos for viewers to flick through.

Not only has he shown people what happens to your head if you go into space without a space suit, but he also looked into numerous historical medical mysteries and torture methods to freak out his followers.

But now, he’s taken on the deep blue.

Starting his video, he shared that ‘if you took the tallest building in the world, and tried to reach the Titanic, you would actually need five of them stacked together to make it.’

This is because the Titanic sits at 12,000 feet deep and the tallest building in the world is the Burj Khalifa in Dubai which is 2,716.54 feet tall.

Imagine having to scale that distance all the way below in the darkest depths, just to find solid ground?

That’s not even the worst of it as Zack went on to share that this is just the average depth of the ocean, and that there are trenches which reach so much further down.

Such as the Mariana Trench.

Known as the deepest part of the ocean, it sits at 35,791 feet.

That’s literally deeper than Mount Everest’s height.

It’s also deeper than the height that commercial airlines tend to fly in the sky at 35,000 feet.

So, you can see just how unfathomable it would be to travel all the way down there where there’s no source of light and many species will never be discovered due to its conditions and lack of visibility.

According to Zach, it would take 13 Burj Khalifa buildings to reach the bottom of the trench, which would be impossible to do without the help of technology and a lot of time to decompress.

Since his clip was released, people have now realised that they too suffer with a fear of deep sea.

Let’s be honest, anyone would say the same after seeing the video, and I’d be asking questions if a person was fine with it.

A commenter wrote: “New fear unlocked: Being 13 Burj Khalifas below the oceans surface.”

Someone else said: “The most scary death is drowning in the ocean. You cant do anything and everything is becoming darker and darker until you die. It's like falling into a bottomless pit.”

Another commented: “Thank you for adding the shark his role was very important.”

So, it’s safe to say that this is one of the worst simulations for people to watch.
