Youtube comments from freedivers

aquatic argobull · 06-26-2012, 07:05 PM

I just got this comment on one of my youtube videos.

"Oh my Gog with air tank!!!!! You really are idiots!! I wish you have an accident soon!! You have just taken away all the beauty of this discipline!!! You should be banished of the oceans morrons!"

Does anybody else get these type of messages? I try to not let it bother me, but I seem to get about one per week or so and it's starting to piss me off. Literally have had people threaten my life in a youtube comment. I have to write "hateful comments will be ignored" so you son't ever see them on the video, I always have to screen the comments first...I would love to see somebody say this kind of stuff to me in person

. The anonymity of youtube really brings out a lot of hate...

Those are just the folks that are sick with their lives, living in a basement somewhere, landlocked. Trolls is what they are, don't let em get to ya. You're doing something you enjoy, & I bet you probably get more good than bad comments. So, ignore em & continue being safe & having fun. That's what it's all about in the end anyways!!

When it all washes out, why let it bother you? The only things in life that are worth the worry, are things you have some control over. The rest will just keep you angry and unbalanced. Let it go. Post more just to piss them off and laugh about how silly they sound.

Yeah, I get them too. You just have to remember that in most places it is illegal to spearfish on SCUBA. I don't mind telling them our laws or that they should mind their own dang business.
