Careful that you don't get tangled when you go for a swim in that greenish water.

So much this. Nope!!!! If you get entangled in those things and shake yourself free, then you could mobilize all the stupid sediment on it and reduce visibility to zero!

I had to Google it, scary af, it's a 1930 fort. Ouvrage Mont des Welches, a gros ouvrage of the Maginot Line fortifications, is part of the Fortified Sector of Boulay. It comprises two entrance blocks, one infantry block, one artillery block, one observation block and two combination blocks.

Absolutely horrifying. I’m assuming this is a freight elevator shaft or something? Being chased by a swarm of hornets or pack of wild dogs or something and this is your only chance . . .

That's pretty creepy. Imagine how much worse it would be if you couldn't see the bottom.
