    That last story is heartbreaking because Frank's friend was not a male, but a female octopus. The reason she wasn't interested in doing anything was she had laid eggs and was protecting them, she was sacrificing her life to make sure her babies hatched. This is what the females do, they won't move away or eat, they are on guard until those babies hatch which means they die so their babies live. Octopi are playful creatures and I am happy he met this special friend, hope someday he meets another one.💕💕💕

      Unfortunately they likely weren't meant to meet again. Fredrick was most likely a she, because what's was described in the story looks a lot like the brooding behaviour of white spotted octopus(we have a lot of them off Europe's coasts, they also live on American East coast too), they change colour to red and then sit for multiple days covering the spot where their eggs are laid, refusing to eat/move/do anything else really until the eggs start to hatch, and then they move away to warmer waters so that they don't compete with their own babies for food/don't accidentally eat them

    This round of stories all centered on diving into the deep watery unknown of lakes and oceans is imo the most unsettling. Diving is not just dangerous it's a necessary skill for the complex infrastructural maintenance required to run civilization.
    Again, these are all the most unsettling stories centered on a world as mysterious as the surface of distant planets except that this alien world is here, on earth!

    Had a school mate. who's dad was a Rescue Diver with the Fire Department in Copenhagen. One of their tasks is to clean the underwater statues.
    One day, the dad's dive buddy had gone down (only about 4 m deep) to clean the statues, when he suddently FLEW out of the water. When sitting on the pier, he muttered "There... there... there was a cyclist!!!"
    Well, it was too shallow for Nitrogen Narcosis so... WTF?!?!?!
    Turns out, an old man had tied himself to a heavy bicycle and drowned himself. The gasses inside him, had stood him up and the current had pushed him past the diver..

    Can confirm that looking at those drops in the ocean floor is terrifying. Went snorkeling one time off a boat and I had to get out immediately. It unexplainable/ unimaginable and over all terrifying. It’s a very stark realization that we are so very small and fragile as human beings. Snorkeling was a soft try into diving ……but after that I knew I could never dive. It inspired fears I never had before. There was also a coral reef nearby and watching all the huge fish swim in and out without being able to see all of them…. Then realizing there could be anything hiding in there……. Ugh. I honestly panicked and begged to get back on the boat. The rest of the time me and 3 other people who freaked out watched everyone else and that was fun lol.

    About the last story: Frederik may have been a girl. When octopuses lay eggs, they will hide them in holes or crevices and then guard that location until hatching, often starving in the process. :(

    37:00 I know exactly what that 'glow' was and yes, it happens to Navy warships as well as other ships and private boats all too often. Note, boat as opposed to ship? Boats are small and can be carried on ships. Submarines are often referred to as 'boats' but they are not boats as they cannot be carried on ships. For instance, while I served in the US Navy back in the 1970's, my ship carried several boats. One was a diver boat.

It’s freaking me out now writing about it. What a horrible end for that guy, mobster or not. And poor Frank, to have to live with that.

      I watched a nature doc a while ago and when he said that the octopus had turned red and was refusing to eat is when I realized it was a female octopus who had laid her eggs and was at the end of life. I'm still here crying over a dying octopus, though.

    The story where he describes the fish with the human face screaming as it was pulled to the surface... I can't picture anything but a blobfish. And by now we all know why the blobfish screams.
    That should be a bumper sticker: I know why the blobfish screams.
    The one about the mob hit had me in agony. I could feel that situation from both sides and neither one was pleasant. I'd still rather be the one with the rebreather, though.

    Ah, the age old giant catfish story... There are two fairly large man made lakes in my neck of the woods. Both of them carry the same tale. The giant catfish, the sunken old town, the sub mechanic work being done either on dams or spillway. The catfish here however have been compared to being as large as a Volkswagen and or too big to fit in the bed of a full size pickup truck. An old one involving a local river was so large it stretched tip to tale the same size as the sunken train car it lived in. Never gets old. And never changes much lol.
