[@CreativePetKeeping]

I think that using whimsical fantasy characters to educate children is wonderful! It makes them curious but it does not require captive animals. I wonder if that can be a future of education about conservation.

[@MermaidLinden]

CreativePetKeeping Exaaaaactly!!!!!

[@justcogitating]

+CreativePetKeeping I think it's kind of silly-- if your point is to educate kids about marine life, why would you trick them into thinking mermaids are real? And captive animals in aquariums are generally living in captivity because they wouldn't survive in the wild.

[@CreativePetKeeping]

+justcogitating Realistically, if you look at the numbers of animals on display in captivity.. only a ridiculously small amount is them have been rescued because they cannot survive in the wild. All of those fish you see in the tanks have been captured or bred ...for the purpose of display. When aquariums get beluga whales for example...did they rescue them? Nope. Captured perfectly healthy specimens for ..display. Back in the day, this was the only good way to learn about these animals...if you wanted to see a certain fish you had to go to an aquarium, but now you could learn so much about an animal by just googling it. I hope that ..in the future...aquariums and zoos will evolve to ONLY house injured animals and those needed for breeding programs to be rehabilitated and released in the wild. We can have mascots, such Mermaid Linden provide children with education and inspire them. She's not here to trick children..but to get them interested about the creatures of our planet so they can seek out more information, get educated, and get involved. That's real conservation! :)

[@justcogitating]

+CreativePetKeeping I haven't asked every aquarium, but I know the one near me only displays animals that either could not survive in the wild or were bred in captivity. My understanding is that it is currently illegal in the US to capture a beluga whale and/or an orca. Maybe specimens were once captured on inappropriate grounds, but now that we have these animals used to living in captivity, I have no problem with displaying them as long as they are happy and in healthful conditions (whether it is possible to achieve that for an orca is debatable, I don't like having them in captivity). I see no problem in breeding animals in aquariums that can live long, healthful lives in captivity for the purposes of display. I still think it's misleading to have a realistic looking mermaid in with all of the other animals at the aquarium. I think there are children who will believe she is a real mermaid, and I don't like lying to kids (or to anyone, for that matter).

[@CreativePetKeeping]

+justcogitating I live by Shedd Aquarium, and they get wild caught fish as well as breed. But what if you go to a Disney park? There are princesses that look and act like the ones from the movies and are very convincing. That's part of the fun. Its not really meant to be a lie..we all know that mermaids are not real..and its up to the parent to explain it to a child. You can say that its a diver in a fish fin if you so choose. Then it becomes no different then getting educations from tank divers. Its just easier for a child to relate to and remember a pretty lady vs. a person in a full body diver suit.

[@jennzubia9568]

Abigail Jeong honestly you can start training now, most aquariums ask for Suba Certification which helps with breathing and seeing underwater and of course being good at swimming and most age requirement is 16 and up! But if you really wanna do it you should start training now! 😊 there’s a lot of programs that are for scuba and swimming just depending where you live! You should research about your aquarium in where you live, and look up the requirements! That’s what I did.

[@jadeheart4587]

for your third point, that depends on the person. some mermaids swim in saltwater tanks like the one she's in. it depends on what you can tolerate and what type of jobs you get. and if your wondering about salt stinging in the eyes, you get used to it and it eventually doesn't bother you at all if you do it enough.

at 0:50 I am already blown away. Man shes not doing it because she likes fairytales or something, she really LOVES everything about it!! She IS indeed a mermaid. I actually feels so happy for her because she gets to do what she really wants, looking at how she even has shell themed mirror and cute mermaid mug!!

[@amilousy2717]

This is not easy to do underwater, you're too good

This was posted in 2015 and it is 10 times better than the Disney's trailer. that is how a real life mermaid looks

[@soulqueen3819]

This made me cry with joy to see how creative and cool she is as a child I loved mermaid movies so I know there children adore her ❤️

[@LB-tm1oj]

I like that she’s not one of those performers that just put half of their heart into it. I’m sure it has its ups and downs like any other job, but it’s good to that it seems like something she fully enjoys.

[@user-wg8yo1oc5j]

I'd love this to be my job one day!!

You can make it happen! Follow that amazing heart of yours ;) xoxo Linden

[@KKIcons]

For all the people who always wanted to be a mermaid, I think Wichee Wachee State Park still offers a mermaid camp to train to be one. It is the oldest perforning mermaid troupe that started back in the 40s. They use breathing tubes rather than free diving (like Mermaid Linden.) I read about it in the teen novel, Breathe and Count Backwards from Ten, by Natalia Sylvester.

[@talosheeg]

I wish I had her job!!!!!

[@MermaidLinden]

Is is seriously hard work, in so many ways...but it's 100% worth it :)

[@talosheeg]

Mermaid Linden you're amazing!! I love your work and your tail looks great!!!

[@Le-eo7zl]

Viet names movies,

[@hansadaan9865]

Lol I already know how to swim like one but, I have no idea how I would do if I wore a tail. I would probably be like a fish on the sand

[@99boa]

Shoutout to the person who created Silicone Mermaid tails so people's dreams of being a mermaid can actually come true for once like this.

[@KKIcons]

Not to forget the inventor of the monofin, too. I hope to try one sometime.

[@bumbabees]

when i was a kid, i used to have a mermaid tail that i used to swim in all the time at our apartment complex. being able to go fast was fun and i was pretty good at it. ive since grown out of it and dont have access to a pool anymore, but if i could, id love to do it again. this was my dream job as a kid and it honestly still sounds pretty cool.

[@KKIcons]

Wow she partnered with Body Glove to produce a good adult monofin I can afford. It feels really stable, efficient, and comfy on my feet. Can't wait to finally try swimming in it.

[@Ice_fn]

She is so pretty and magical!❤️

[@iyuli]

Someone, please tell me how she can open her eyes in the water...

[@Holly_M_Harris]

There won’t be chlorine in the aquariums

[@baldpikainyourarea7786]

Yep

[@catnium]

you just open them its easy even in pool water with the pee and chloride in it.

[@cupcakxiia]

@@catnium Yeah but- Don't your eyes ever hurt?

[@ekremslayer3389]

You can open them in the sea it'll just hurt until your eyes adjust to the salt. The water in the aquarium is probably sea water or smtn

[@kryzelleigh2965]

5 minutes?!?!,U can be a singer!!!

[@MermaidLinden]

+Hannah Farnsworth G-rated mermaid....that's me!

[@UltimateMadWorld]

To think she can hold her breath underwater for 5 minutes is absolute nuts! As an amateur scuba diver myself I last recorded holding my breath for 80-97secs but that's absolutely nothing compared to 5 minutes as I would admittedly be terrified of oxygen depletion or in other words asphyxia as there's always a risk of incidental drowning! This really is pushing the boundaries of human endurances to the absolute limit! But ladies like Linden really have a real gift and talent not only for holding their breath for long periods of time swimming underwater dressed as mermaids but for using her abilities to help inspire and educate others regarding oceanic conservation! Linden is an absolute credit and a huge inspiration to both the international diving community and all those who are involved in oceanic conservation and research as a whole, I really wish more folks were like her! 🧜‍♀️

[@GreekMermaidSophia4L]

Wow!!! I really love your story!! I love the sea just as much and I always loved being underwater , listening to stories of mermaids and my first Disney movie that I truly fell in love with was The Little Mermaid. I got my first fin was so exciting to try it out, but unfortunately the material is already acting up and both my straps broke on my monofin. Anyway it is such a pleasure to meet you and thank you for sharing !! I love your tail 🥰🧜‍♀️💗

Mermaid are real i was on vacation i on a ship there is a tsunami but a small one and i saw a mermaid

[@Violetr863]

@@rakheenbrotherbackupchanne7863 no their not that's just someone in a costume

[@beeisverycool]

Mas Yadi if you were on a ship and a tsunami happened, you wouldn’t be sharing it around like that. Also, even a “small tsunami” isn’t small. Secondly, no, a real mermaid wasn’t in the ocean, it was most likely a whale or orca! Professional Mermaid are in big pools and Aquariums. So, I don’t really believe you, but others can. It’s fine.

[@richardweaver9192]
