ur explanation of kappa is wrong just fyi. ppl used to send kids down the river, babies really if they got sick or where unwanted. why do u think they are bald only on the top of the head and have blue of green skin? it wasnt to keep kids from the river it was to explain the odd green blue bodies who skull caps are rotten off due to the elements while keeping kids from going too far to the river while fishing

The only reason why I’m scared of water rides is that I fear to get stuck on it and therefore have to leave the boat and go into the water with these animatronics. Imagine going or swimming through these waters and an animatronic shark shows up. I would simply die

[@iguess7997]

EXACTLY omg all the times ive been on water rides at theme parks i was always scared of the ride breaking down and us having to leave the boat to walk or step on the water around it to get to the land😭😩the idea that theres mecanic metal moving stuff down there is just so terrifying to me

[@YourWaywardDestiny]

I was watching videos of ride breakdowns because it's interesting to see rides with lights on. The Jungle Cruise was one of the rides that had a malfunction. "The water isn't that deep, so there's no real danger" was said. The depth of the water is NOT the danger, it is, in fact, the animatronics lurking beneath.

[@MadameOfHorror]

What scares me most about Underwater mechanics is the idea of what you see on top of the water, is nothing compared to what lies under the water. All that scary machinery, and the idea of being near it when it suddenly turns on. It's the same idea of when your at the bottom of a cruise ship, and being underwater to see the size of the propeller. You've never felt submechaniphobia until you've seen a diver next to one of those. There is a sense of horrid dread that hits me when I see it lol

[@ConnorSchumann-bd2wk]

I've seen it and i can confirm it is horrifying.

[@spaghetticoconut658]

I grew up scared of that shark at the Houston Aquarium. It’s even scarier as a kid because they give you this fake story about how they used to have a great white at the aquarium and it “escaped” and “they never found it.” That story scared the tar out of me as a kid.

When i was little and i would swim in my pool at night with the pools light on, it would light up a sort of green color and be super hard to see. i always imagined there being a giant squid under me or sharks coming out of the light at the end of the pool. i had no idea what this irrational fear was until i now at fifteen have discovered submechanophobia.

[@noelepeterson2036]

I had a similar fear but in the shower and it was a shark. But, after I watched a bit of "The Creature From The Black Lagoon." As a kid, I always imagined it was in the water with me. That was a fun time. 😑 I eventually grew out of the shark fear when I was 12.

I remember being lost in the dark rooms, filled with murky water, and the lifeless pirates moving slowly, paired with an horrible metal scraping sound, trying to stay above the water, and not to succumb to the rusty metal machines underwater. There is nobody there. You can’t see much. The doors are long closed.

I've been to Triassic park countless times in winter to ski and know the place very well. As a child I used to dig around in the deep snow and dig out the dinosaurs some of which were completely hidden under the snow. In winter the water dinosaur is just floating in the air and it's even creepier than in summer.

[@blusterthebenevolpede4137]

I get what you mean by that but I think it's funny to imagine it just hovering high above the lake and suspended in the air, jankily turning and moving around some weird plane like an NPC in an old 3D game like Half-Life.

As a kid, i was on the pirate ride at Drayton Manor when it broke down. We were stuck watching the shark chase the pirate for around 40 minutes. The worse thing was, it was the boat we were going around on that broke down, the sounds and animatronics around us were still functioning! So you can imagine how terrified a 8 year old me was! I completely blame this for my submechanaphobia today!

[@AerosArrows]

I've been to the Houston aquarium countless times. I was always scared of the shark as a kid (and I still jump even knowing that it's there), but honestly, after the jumpscare it's a lot more funny than scary. you have to sit in the right spot for the full effect. sit in the back and it goes off before you even see it, sit in the front and you'll pass it before it pops up. it even sprays water as you pass, but the timing it always off and it sprays you before the shark pops up. it's honestly amazing

As a child my family would go to disneyland almost annually. The only ride i had a problem with was the jungle cruise. I remember being 5 or 6, kicking and screaming as my parents dragged me into the queue. Eventually they gave up and someone would stay with me while the others would get on the ride. They never understood why i was afraid, and tbh i didn't either. I just know that being in that boat surrounded by that murky water and those animatronics scared me. Now as an adult, i still get chills being in that situation. It all makes sense now.

[@user-js1fq7pq3r]

Number 8 really got me. There was also something about the landscape around it that made me creeped out

[@blusterthebenevolpede4137]

I know; it's just so deep, but there's also barely any wiggle room because of its small width. You can probably get stuck there easier than with most rides. It feels specifically made for the shark too, as if it isn't a natural creature but rather an invasive thing being shown off.

6:35 i went to kyoto with my dad and brother for a vacation once. Brother was busy with homework and so me and my dad went out to the studio park because we saw it yestersay and thought itd be interesting to go to. The dragon is located in the middle of the village portion of the park surrounded by port houses. I remember just walking around and realizing there was something in the water. I was about to yell that somethings in the water, I walked to the back area and it activated abruptly. It slowly emerged from the water and there were speakers playing roaring and snarling noises as it sprayed mist around it as it turned around. Jumpscared the Hell out of me. Me and my dad had a good laugh about it afterwards. I hate the thought of being in the mossy water with it, but still cool tho.

If i got stuck in the water with one I would freak the fuck out

I literally JUST watched the previous video an hour ago. I thought it was a re-upload!

[@juggerhuevo]

I remember an attraction with floating buoys in a huge pool, you could drive them it was a ton of fun but the idea of falling on that pool still haunts me to this day lol

I was surprised to see Houston pop up on this list! I rode the shark voyage train years ago and definitely wasn’t expecting the shark jumpscare, but I thought he looked too silly to be scary. Now I understand how being able to see the machinery under him is scary

[@sofiavillanova2834]

What if in hundreds of years once all these parks and animatronics are abandoned, someone goes swimming in a lake, river, or another body of water and then all of a sudden you run into one of these animatronics under the water. New fear unlocked😳

[@abovetheearth8599]

Great video as always!!! Keep pumping them out!!!!! Love watching them!

[@kristelabm_95]

The Kong one is the scariest. Imagine been held on to his hand while looking at him closely... I’d die immediately! 😣

This video helped me discover that I have this phobia. Idk why it never occurred to me when I would cry on the Jaws ride at Universal and the Jungle Cruise, while I love it, makes me extremely uncomfortable. Good to know

The alligator/woody Bill at the Cleveland zoo was one of my fav things to watch I was so fascinated with how realistic it felt

[@alexdionisos]

I haven't been down there in years. I wonder if he still works

Nahhh imagine swimming in a lake and feeling something touch your foot only too look down and see a rotting animatronic shark or sea monster! 😟😟 that’s what makes me uncomfortable

[@mannyplayz3091]

The bunyip is probably the scariest for me

The King Kong one was my favorite!

[@jennycraigadventures3314]

Light up eyes in animatronics always ruin it for me. Instead of letting my imagination pretend that it’s real, or admiring the artistry, all I can think of is “Why’d the put light bulbs where it’s eyes are supposed to be?”

[@champagnecoloredeyes]

@@jennycraigadventures3314 I thought the same thing about the eyes! If they did away with the multicolor lights it would be haunting

[@bugsauce2261]

@@jennycraigadventures3314 For some it helps, but in others it DOES make the effect seem forced.
