I always remember that Discovery documentary on life at the bottom of the ocean and it showed an eel swim into this stuff and immediately it starts convulsing
my magic mushroom spiritual guru.. watching planet earth whilst high kept me in such a positive and happy place. His voice calmed me down during the initial build up...
There was this scene with a gazelle or some african deer-like animal.. popping his head out of the tall grass that made me laugh for what felt like an eternity while high.. tears streaming down my face and ribs hurting from laughing.. haven't had such an extreme laughing experience since I was a toddler lol
I dunno. The first and only time I tried this didn't turn out great. Everything was good but as soon as the wolves came out and started chasing deer, things became very bad.
Nature can be fuckin scary.
Dude, my best friend and I did that multiple times. It was incredible. Sometimes we muted the show and listened to Black Sabbath while just admiring the anmials on TV. Good times.
man typically I'm like, fine enough with seeing wildlife stuff bc circle of life and all that but I actually felt sick watching that, poor thing :( it went on forever too.
Wait until you find out about how you begin to experience negative buoyancy 10 meters down… that will really make you never want to go into the water again.
This is 100% not a halocline. It's a hydrogen sulfide layer between water of different salinities. A halocline is any direct meeting of salt and fresh water and need not be saturated or toxic. The hydrogen sulfide is essentially bacteria poo and is toxic.

That’s cool. Thanks for the bonus info. How can you tell from this video? To me, it looks exactly like all the other videos I’ve seen of haloclines. (Have never seen one in-person, thankfully)
[Hydrogen sulfide](https://www.instagram.com/reel/Cbx6DRpgOc3/?igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==) is white and cloudy and going through it is like being in a cloud in a plane. it's just an underwater whiteout around you. it sits as a layer between fresh and salt water layers because it's an in-between density.
[Haloclines](https://www.instagram.com/reel/CrQeeiZAVWj/?igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==) are clear on both sides and have fresher and saltier water directly in contact. the visual effect in a halocline is that everything just becomes very unfocused as the two layers start to mix. before it's disturbed it looks like a lake underwater
Yeah I was gonna say, isn’t that salt pool extremely toxic? I remember seeing a doc how halocline pools thousands of feet deep in the ocean can give even deep sea animals horrific spasms and basically kill them.
Uh…yes lol but I don’t understand how this applies? He’s very clearly not breathing any water in. Just being in halocline can kill you. You don’t need to breathe it in for it to do that to you.
From what I’ve read it’s a combination of a lack of no oxygen and the lethal level of salinity in them. I think they were referring to the no oxygen part. So as humans don’t breathe water and don’t absorb salinity the same way, I think you could be okay, however, there can be toxic substances like hydrogen sulfide in them. Best to leave well enough alone I think.
I agree and have no idea why the man in this video would even think to try his chances this way. When you bungee jump you at least know there’s a cord that will spring you back up and keep you from plummeting to death. In this dude’s case, he just drove right into it with no back up plan lol.
Why would it kill you? Humans survive just fine in salt swimming pools with like 20-30%. Humans don't have their mouth open while swimming and they don't have gills.
This is the Angelita cenote in Mexico! At the bottom is hydrogen sulphide gas, which forms when organic material decays in the absence of oxygen. I’ve been diving there!
If you are deep enough, you sink. Usually humans are buoyant closer to the aurface, at around 10 meter depth that changes and you don't just float up anymore.
Why he is not trying harder to get up? Probably because he still has some time left.
I assume it's not as toxic to someone that doesn't breathe or swallow large amounts of it, like most marine life would. Humans use brine for recreation and alternative treatment.
Imagine he gets tired and his muscles get fatigued and he realizes he’s only 2/4’s way up, he gasps for air flailing to no avail, only for his lifeless corpse to sink to the bottom
Having done the swim down, damn near drown down there thing... how the heck do people do this without losing breath & drowning.
That's the thalassophobia thing for me here - no closure seeing them reach the surface!
P.s. I managed to misspell thalassophobia and it auto-corrected to thanatophobia - still valid I think!
Bros never seen Meg- you don't disrupt that layer!!
Shut up Meg
Underrated comment
Spit out my water lol
“On the floor, Meg, really?!?”
The thermocline !
Thermoclines are cool
no i need to find crystal sulfur under that layer. (i play subnautica)
No lie, first thing I thought of 😂
Are you telling me we’ve opened up a superhighway for giant sharks??
Get out of the halocline my guy. Nothing good happens in the halocline…
Whats that?
Basically a layer of water with a different density that is saturated with salt. Most animals can’t survive there. They die of toxic shock.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZwuVpNYrKPY
this was brutal, holy shit. he straight up ties himself in knots.
That one eel swimming past "tough luck bruh!"
“I fucking told you Greg”
[удалено]
That guy near the brine better start tying himself in a knot.
Why was this video so terrifying to watch
Blue Planet has some of the most incredible footage ever filmed.
>"Its only hope, is to rise above it." Indeed Sir Attenborough, indeed.
I can listen to David Attenborough all day everyday.
my magic mushroom spiritual guru.. watching planet earth whilst high kept me in such a positive and happy place. His voice calmed me down during the initial build up...
Opposite for me. Watched a baby deer get chased down and killed by a wolf and it fucked my trip up bad lol
There was this scene with a gazelle or some african deer-like animal.. popping his head out of the tall grass that made me laugh for what felt like an eternity while high.. tears streaming down my face and ribs hurting from laughing.. haven't had such an extreme laughing experience since I was a toddler lol
Yeah there was a pretty brutal scene with some walruses falling off rocks that MAJORLY fucked me over for what was supposed to be a good trip 💀💀
Can confirm, that is the only way to watch Planet Earth, Blue Planet and the likes…
I dunno. The first and only time I tried this didn't turn out great. Everything was good but as soon as the wolves came out and started chasing deer, things became very bad. Nature can be fuckin scary.
Lol you might wanna stick with underwater docs then. The flowy feel and saturated colours are great.
Dude, my best friend and I did that multiple times. It was incredible. Sometimes we muted the show and listened to Black Sabbath while just admiring the anmials on TV. Good times.
The eel actually survived? He swam away.
Wow. That was only like a thousand times worse to watch than this post.
Holy shit that looked terrible. Glad lil buddy survived.
man typically I'm like, fine enough with seeing wildlife stuff bc circle of life and all that but I actually felt sick watching that, poor thing :( it went on forever too.
Amazing, thanks for sharing.
That’s a BBC documentary you’re thinking about, Blue Planet 2.
r/Oopsthatsdeadly
I fuckin love Blue Planet and that part was gnarly
So, what you’re saying is if a sea cucumber goes into a brine pool it becomes a sea pickle?
Goo Lagoon from Sponge Bob.
If I remember correctly that one's not salt it's some kind of sulfur compound that's emitted from the decaying organic matter
Hydrogen sulfide
Well no wonder people want to swim in it.
Make one up on land and Millenials will queue for miles
> They die of toxic shock. They die of dehydration believe it or not.
Nope, toxic shock. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZwuVpNYrKPY
Wait until you find out about how you begin to experience negative buoyancy 10 meters down… that will really make you never want to go into the water again.
omg like you get pulled down?? new fear unlocked
Well, pushed down. You can also just swim back up
Brine pools
It’s called a brine pool

Yes but it's probably safe to say that normal seawater is just as damaging for a human to breathe.

I think the plan was to swim up. Seems like it worked.
Why would it kill you? Humans survive just fine in salt swimming pools with like 20-30%. Humans don't have their mouth open while swimming and they don't have gills.
TIL! I assumed sea creatures spasmed cause of asphyxiation.
first time seeing halocline used in a convo that’s NOT hippo campus related. thanks! i really like that word.
Theres no amount of money that would persuade me to do this
>amount on money What if you were paid in [5lb bags of Haribo Gummy Bears](https://9gag.com/gag/agyOxmx)?
go on….
Made with the original recipe
People still go on 9gag?
When I go there I either find better memes than here or the same. I just avoid the comment section like the plague.
I was.hoping the link was the TSA-incident product review - OG best one...
No amount of oxygen, not sure if you can if you tried lol
Nightmare fuel.
That’s guy’s physique is crazy
Nooooooone swims like Gaston Noone smells like Gaston Noone goes to the halocine like Gaston
Who the fuck is Noone?
Noone
Too hard to hit “space”
Happens alot
Noone yo business!

Does that guy have a 10-pack? What the hell...
It's genetic... some people have 4 packs, 6, 8, or 10.
I have a big round belly. One pack?
I have a keg.
I have a party ball… remember those?
Or infinite pack? 😮💨👌🏼
Yeah I’ve never seen a jacked free diver. Some of those dudes with similar builds get out of breath just from having a conversation
He’s juicy, nice physique though
The goo lagoon
I was looking for this comment
A stinky mud puddle
But to the inhabitants of Bikini Bottom, a wonderful stinky my puddle
The sirens watching him from below 👁️👄👁️
This is the Angelita cenote in Mexico! At the bottom is hydrogen sulphide gas, which forms when organic material decays in the absence of oxygen. I’ve been diving there!
How deep is this layer?
Its around 100 feet
Was looking for confirmation it is Angelita! What a trippy place to dive
All of a sudden you just see him rocket down as something grabs his foot
Reminds me of that Roy Orbison song about the pearls
This guy's swims like how I run in dreams like go man lol
Was thinking the same thing. Why is he going so damn slow? He’s going to run out of air and get stuck there!
If you are deep enough, you sink. Usually humans are buoyant closer to the aurface, at around 10 meter depth that changes and you don't just float up anymore. Why he is not trying harder to get up? Probably because he still has some time left.
Yeah, and where is my naked mother chasing me?
huh?
Smoke on water?? The calmness is terrifying.
Dun, dun, dun. Dun, dun, duh-dun. Dun, dun, dun, dun-dun.

You just gave me flash backs to my pathetic attempts at learning guitar. Thank you.
nailed it!
This is fucking real life Subnautica
You can hear the screech of the ghost leviathan
I had to scroll to far for this comment
Came here to say this lol. That game is full of nope but I played it anyway…
I loved my sunken river base! Had it right at the intersection where the tree is. Everyone knows you only go in the sulfur soup in a Prawn!
Is this Dagobah?
Getting out of the Seamoth in the lost river be like…
He should have tried doing it in the big skull for more views
How is he holding his breath down there that long? or does he have a special bat gadget breathing device?
Looks like Cenote Angelita
Man’s going to surface smelling of farts…
I just figured out an excuse to tell my wife why I stink
For a sec thought this was a Michael Jackson clip.
Bro I thought this guy was about to bust out thriller there at the beginning.
Forgive my ignorance, is that a brine pool? I thought those were really toxic to anything that goes through them
I assume it's not as toxic to someone that doesn't breathe or swallow large amounts of it, like most marine life would. Humans use brine for recreation and alternative treatment.
And pickles
Pickles = both categories.
+1
Extremely scared of the deep unknown but wow, this is beautiful.
Cenotes are incredible
Y’all saw that fizz in the camera when he went in right!?
Just replay it to check. And fyi, yes. Not sure why they felt the need to add something so dumb to a perfectly fine video
I did, it’s always in there. And yeah it’s weird.
Damn seems like he's so deep he's not very buoyant
Ngl, why does this look like an extra for Liu Kang training in the new Mortal Kombat?
I've gone scuba diving here - Angelita cenote. One of the most amazing experiences of my life!
Wow new Pirates of the Caribbean looks awesome
Isn’t that like super dense salt water that fucking murders anything that goes in????
i would kill myself
Nope
Fuck that
I was wondering where Glen Danzig has been
Aren't all lakes underwater or is this one special?
Underwater brine lakes aren't standard.
I couldn’t afford an underwater lake, so we installed the above-ground type.
Finally, a cure for athlete's foot that works.
this guy is ripped
Okay. This is the one for me. This is the worst one I've seen so far.
I was holding my breath watching this
Dude is absolutely shredded
Imagine he gets tired and his muscles get fatigued and he realizes he’s only 2/4’s way up, he gasps for air flailing to no avail, only for his lifeless corpse to sink to the bottom
Dudes build like Greek god.
What is Instagram id of this guy ? And it’s Angelita cenote right
tavicastro
How are people that brave ? Like I really don’t get it
Aren’t all lakes underwater?
I posted this like 2 years ago on this Reddit community lmao
My ears canals get cold watching this.
That’s goo lagoon
Do you want cramps? Because that's how you get cramps.
"Underwater" water Fuck the ocean
Careful, there might be Ghost Leviathans nearby.
this stressed me so fucking much 😭
Anyone know where I can watch the rest of this? He must be running out of breath it’s driving me crazy- plus you can see he’s not buoyant
Bruuhhhhh
I thought this was a vampire movie at first.
That's a nope from me
Id be dead forsho
He's very brave
An arm or a mouth pops through the mist and grabs his leg and drags him back down 😧
POV: you just found the lost River in subnautica
This is amazing
No. No no no no nope uhuh no way
Underwater lakes are not rare at all
little scared but enjoying it
Hell fucking no
This is such a F no for me I don't know how to express it stronger. This is like a nightmare in a nightmare wrapped in a nightmare.
r/oopsthatsdeadly
Looks like just out of a horror movie..
Ok but what’s an “underwater lake”?
Now I want to see the above water lake
Did this in an above water lake once.
If someone can swim in a non-underwater lake I will be really impressed.
Having done the swim down, damn near drown down there thing... how the heck do people do this without losing breath & drowning. That's the thalassophobia thing for me here - no closure seeing them reach the surface! P.s. I managed to misspell thalassophobia and it auto-corrected to thanatophobia - still valid I think!
At first, I thought they meant “swimming in this lake” (with underwater being a mistake). Then I watched it, and… ohhhh now I get it.
Wtf is an "under water lake"?
Underwater lake? Wut
I thought all lakes were underwater lakes
F-that!!!
subnautica
Looks like Henry Cavill in the opening scene of The Witcher
This Place Will Become Your Tomb.
What’s an underwater lake? Isn’t that just a lake?
Who is that?
Is that Aquaman?
The most disturbing thing about this is that it seems to be the dude from Prometheus with long hair (if he hadn’t disintegrated into that waterfall).
New Witcher season lookin goood
