Its kind of dizzying to think of the universe and the fact that theres no end to it.
at least to me

And yet, there will be an end to it. Once the Big Rip occurs, we're all ****ed.

It's infinitely expanding, but it will reach a finite point. Oh, did you know that when your TV picks up static, what you're actually seeing and hearing is the current state of the Big Bang, as it continues to expand? You're seeing the actual electrical charges and impulses that are occuring in it.

Oh, and if that concept boggles your mind, take a peek at this photograph with over 10,000 galaxies in it:

How about the fact that our universe will eventually convert all its energy to heat, making every single living thing die out, and all progress made to be wasted. And if he universe starts up again, we will have no memory of what it was before.

Yeah, but you forgot the "swimming in alcohol" part :har:

I was wondering if anyone shares my phobia of shipwrecks, sinking ships and the undersides of ships?

Judging by this link, plenty of people do but rather oddly it doesn't have a proper name.

I don't exactly go frantic and break out into a cold sweat at the sight of a submerged or semi submerged object, but I definitely feel extremely uncomfortable. Having said that I'm fascinated by documentaries about famous wrecks, but I could never dive on one myself (even if I could dive). Truth be told I wouldn't even want to swim over the location of a wreck.

Having just started playing SH3, I was surprised to find that even some of the in-game graphics spooked me out. Using free view to zoom around underwater and view my own sub sent a shiver up my spine, and the event camera showing those large ships sinking make me feel very uncomfortable indeed. Oddly enough watching them sink from above the waves is fine! On the odd occaison when I get close enough to a target to see its hull below the waterline through the periscope, I don't like that much either!

LOL! Some submarine captian I'll make at this rate! :) Does anyone else on here have this affliction, game-induced or not?

Seek proffesional aid :stare:

(Just joking :DL )

i cant view objects in freecam below the water in SH3
i just cant

Bah, my plan to scare people backfired miserably!
