I think I have megalophobia (the fear of large objects) but it's specifically to do with the sea: large creatures in the sea, ships and even the sea itself. I used to love reading about whales and watching them in documentaries until I realised how big they actually were... funnily enough I only realised how big they were when I saw a seal swimming near the surface in a harbour and it was flipping large.
My mind: if seals are that large then imagine a shark that can hold one in its jaws and then imagine a killer whale (Killer whales scare me to death) AND WHAT ABOUT REAL WHALES!!!!
A lot of things about snakes creep me out too: their movement, their swallowing food and when they curl into a ball that just looks like intestines with a head somewhere. I'm not to fond of them no, but I'd rather pet a snake then be in open water with killer whales coming out of the dark ocean depths beneath me
http://rense.com/general67/BUMP.HTMKETCHIKAN, Alaska - Whale researchers say it was highly unusual for a killer whale to bump a 12-year-old boy splashing in shallow water near Ketchikan.
Ellis Miller found himself face-to-face with an orca charging at him in 4 feet of water Saturday in Helm Bay. The animal, estimated to be more than 25 feet long, bumped but did not bite him.
"I looked underwater and there was this huge head right in front of me," Ellis told the Ketchikan Daily News.
