Do You Have A Case Of Thalassophobia – Fear Of The Sea?

A lot of people are pretty certain about what phobias they have. However, one of the phobias that evade recognition is “thalassophobia”. In fact, most people are unaware of the term or what it even means. Thalassophobia is the fear of the sea or large, deep water bodies. By now you must be scowling and thinking “nah, I don’t think so”. How about we give you a change of mind?

There is fairly less known to humans about the oceans and what lies underneath. However, one thing they got straight is the fact that the deepest point below the surface of the water is 11 kilometers down. That is deeper than the highest mountain in the world. Imagine inverting Mount Everest and submerging it into the oceans and the tip would still not touch the bottom. Think you don’t have thalassophobia? Think again.
