Something frightens me about such inhumanly large spaces

[–] Bach37strad 18 points 7 months ago (1 children)

For me, it's the fact that that entire space could be filled with water.

I used to get the same eerie feeling lifeguarding as a kid, walking around in drained Olympic size pools. Always weirded me out for a minute. Like any second it could fill back up.

Yes, I would be 3x as scared if this was full of water, I was floating on top of it, and knew that all of this was below me. (and couldn't see to the bottom) It's why I am scared of dams.

Being scared of dams is a pretty good idea, they can have some freaky and deadly currents.

Oooh, you reminded me of the eerie nature of dam spillways and overflows. wet spillway + Dry spillway

You might really not like this horror short about being stuck on a dam spillway, haha. This sort of horror is the best, imo. Not cheap jumpscare BS. Just plausible stuff like pandemics or non-human infrastructure.
