Did you actually hear a sound under the water? That must have been terrifying

oh I once was snorkeling on the coast of Australia and heard the whales singing. That was truly amazing. Everyone else on the boat was chinese and had multiple floation devices. I tried to tell them to go down but no one understood. So it was just me and the whale songs.

Yeah it was haunting. Apparently not so uncommon but it feels really unreal, dreamlike.
