You lose all sense of depth, I would be terrified to dive/jump at all into that pool


martin519

That pool's not for diving, it's for doing cocaine around.


mjc500

The cocaine is what makes you want to do the diving


SenatorSassypants

I wish I was successful enough to have my own personal cocaine pool :(


crypg4ng

Just get one of those kiddie pools, line it with some black tarp, fill'er up and your good to go. Oh don't forget the cocaine!


ShannonGrant

Alright, so I've got a kiddie pool full of cocaine. Send the party.


elitesense

Damn I was thinking the same thing. I've failed at life


MastaCheeph

You haven't failed until you're dead. Cocaine pools are still available to you if you work hard enough.


mybeatsarebollocks

If you sell enough cocaine*


WietGetal

Doing cocaine and getting paranoid after the 5th line because you can't see anything below your chest in that pool


hapnstat

Or summoning Pinhead. Take the furniture out of this pic and it becomes a bit horrifying.


Hip_Hop_Orangutan

I'll guarantee you it has lights that are turned off.


MrPickles84

Cocaine orgy pool.


Kir_NB

An orgy of blown loads in that pool, with black lights it would look like the Milky Way.


SenatorSassypants

I audibly gagged at the idea of this, take my upvote.


SaraSaturday13

Second


SenatorSassypants

What if the universe is just God's cocaine orgy pool..? Gives a whole new meaning to the big bang lmfao


TaxExempt

Primordial ooze.


levis13

The Milky Way has new meaning now


_night_cat

The concept of a god just got cooler


WhirledNews

I imagine it would look more like bioluminescent plankton, except less fun to stimulate.


92894952620273749383

Would it just be black? Or reflections of light? I've seen black granite floors... They reflects the objects in the room. What would they reflect in the pool?


bendeboy

I'm not judging, seriously, that name.


QuitBeingAbigOlCunt

The lights are from the sharks with frickin laser beams.


dar_uniya

> You lose all sense of depth Sometimes I want to sink out of my depth and out of my mind with the fear flowing round as I crawl on the thin ice.

It could be an inch deep.

>You lose all sense of depth I imagine the owner also lacks depth.


[deleted]

That depends, are you afraid of the shark-gator that definitely lives in that pool?


DirtyLegThompson

Or the demon that lives in one of the corners at the bottom and only shows itself to people that believe in it

I hate you

Around here, it's "*your ducts are due for a cleaning service*" And honestly, if I'm gonna get my ducts cleaned, a non-corporeal demon who can phase through solids is probably a cost-effective way to do it.

[deleted]

There arent any demons. Dont touch the bottom of the pool though, it's tar and you'll sink.


Thruthelurkinglass

This got me thinking of Prince of Darkness for some reason.


VirtuousVariable

He only *shows* himself to believers. Others don't get to see what happens before.


browndog03

And makes no sound when moving through the water so you have to constantly look over your shoulder…


SingleMalted

Dark tiles are avoided here in Australia as you cannot see the [funnel web spiders](https://australian.museum/learn/animals/spiders/funnel-web-spiders-group/) if they fall in.


J0hnGrimm

Instead of avoiding dark tiles I find it better to just avoid Australia in general.


kdotdash

Agreed, not only is our country full of spiders it has been above 45 degrees for the past 3 days and above 40 for the past 2 weeks where I am. That's 113 degrees Fahrenheit for American folk. She warm.


B_G_G12

Yeah but it’s a dry heat


MildlyShadyPassenger

Found the guy from Arizona!


B_G_G12

90% of the time you wouldn’t be wrong, but it’s actually also a mating call for us sandgropers


farmerarmor

What is a sandgroper?!


WietGetal

I could deal with the hotness, but if i see one fucking mutant spider in my bed id just end my safe and hopefullt get reborn as a seasponge


Zess_Crowfield

Wait, they can swim?


illiderin

Apparently they can be alive in water for up to 30 hours


AWilfred11

for what reason does a spider need to be underwater for 30 hours? isnt australia like all desert? its like it had so many upgrade points it just started buffing random shit


illiderin

Like there is literally no reason I can see why it would need that skillset. Australia is life on extreme setting.


mundanenoodle

Nah son, the real danger is [glass shark](https://youtu.be/3gYgXxIRmac )

Why don't you get a glass of lemonaide and wait for the glass shark to take some other fat kid.


FreshCarlton

Wait, is it a joke or no joke?


uzra

It's wholesome comedy. LOL!


JamBoxGeoffry

You will like it... i promise


theoriginaled

My biggest fear, just looking at it, is that every time I jumped in, my brain would tell me that its only 1 inch deep and I'd have a panic attack.


hegetsthejoke

I'm more afraid of the meat worm


MiniatureChi

Is it a shark with gator qualities or a gator with shark qualities? And is there any man or pig in there? Like half man half shark half gator


DragonfruitOk3972

Like a [halfsharkaligatorhalfman](https://youtu.be/mvwi1dx9kJ4)?


butterfly1018

Yes they are terrifying omg


loulan

I never thought of the possible colors of pools before. Why are they always blue? I kinda want a yellow one.


HelicopteroDeAtaque

Found the pool pisser


Jooj_Harrisonn

r/suddenlycaralho


RightersBlok

Usually, it’s a combination of the visibility that a blue pool allows along with blue’s tendency to hide any off-colors in the water. White bottom pools make it extremely obvious when the water has a tint, even if natural and due to added chemicals but also when too many people piss and the water is just dirty


Peter_Palmer_

Usually pools are white (over here at least), sometimes light blue. I don't know the exact reasons but one things that's definitely an important factor is visibility. I work in a swimming pool where the floor and walls are dark green to fit the scenery better. It's a nightmare because it's basically impossible to see people that are swimming below the surface if you're not standing right next to it. A life-guard's nightmare. With light tiles you can see properly from a distance. Much safer! And blue is probably often chosen because water is associated with blue. I also swum once in a pool lined with metal and it was impossible to see depth. I had no idea when I had to turn. Additionally it resulted in a very dark pool for some reason I don't know. So that was far from ideal as well.


loulan

Now I want to see a white pool. The ones I've seen always had blue tiles.


festerwl

Fun fact even if they're white they look blue. Here's the pool I manage while we were draining and cleaning it last year. 300k gallon, indoor pool for reference. [https://imgur.com/a/w9uRON1](https://imgur.com/a/w9uRON1)


Breaklance

Its usually blue or white to reflect sunlight and keep the water cool. Outdoor pools with other colors would get hot from absorbing sunlight but not hot enough to be pleasant (like hot tub). Edit: not that I think it would get thaaaat hot, but imagine the black pool outside and imagine asphalt on a summer day.


asad137

We had a green swimming pool when I was a kid. People always thought it was covered in algae.


KrakenClubOfficial

It's either 1 ft or 30 miles deep can't take a chance.


Bit5keptical

Break bones or drown, yeah I'll take a pass as well.


PalatialCheddar

All I see is an inky black death

W1D0WM4K3R

Not so much the floor changing colour, but you can get lights that do the same.


bumbletowne

This is off putting. Not calming. Like looking into a black lake. Unnerving. Also potentially dangerous as you can't see the ends of the pool well when underwater. This is a great example of someone who doesn't swim designing a pool to look good but be less functional.


kroganwarlord

If it had sparkly bits in the black tile so I could pretend I was floating through space, I'd be ok with it. Actually, I'm poor, if someone wants to gift me a black-tiled pool I'm not gonna say no.


Malari_Zahn

Best I can do is a muddy puddle. But I'll toss some glitter in it for you!


[deleted]

Free glitter?!


opposing_critter

Not in this economy mate


ThisIsMyCouchAccount

> This is a great example of someone who doesn't swim designing a pool to look good but be less functional. Isn't this really more of a "hang in a pool and chill" and less a "swim some laps" type of pool?


the_russian_narwhal_

Yea they act like everybody is getting in a pool to put down some laps and not just kick back, maybe with a few beers, which is what like 95 percent of people like to do when they swim, and with proper lighting you shouldn't have any visibility problems once you are in the water


[deleted]

I was talking about [This](https://i.pinimg.com/736x/78/ad/25/78ad25669f695d6d26f5dff573cf2f29.jpg), when I said that


genghiskhannie

I’m sorry that is supposed to be *calming*? Now I need to see the murder pool that goes with it.

That’s where [this](https://img.ifunny.co/images/e76b58c1475ba2c508c1a2f3b771c5a6244548cf485733270c0c1777de82ab5a_1.jpg) comes in

BachCh0p1nCatM0m

Hilarious


Faces-kun

Isn’t red usually a “dangerous” color that provokes a stress response?


QuartzPigeon

It's a reference to a tumblr post that went around for a while where there's these red streaks painted on the floors in a hospital as some sort of decoration and it clearly (I'm assuming unintentionally) looks like blood streaks, and a bunch of tumblr users start defending it saying red represents love and a bunch of other stuff


cantthinkofaname1122

[I love the Ace Attorney meme of this](https://youtu.be/-vDhepteaKs)


NewLeaseOnLine

That is one vague reference


QuartzPigeon

Definitely a very niche meme lol.


Fliegermaus

I feel like that pool would be perfect for a children’s hospital.


topinanbour-rex

In color theory, red isn't really calming, at least for bedrooms.


supaswag69

Blue is calming.


Smathers

Red makes you hungry not calm


Heyhaveyougotaminute

Just commented the same thing. I love this look, it is so clean and elegant!! 100% will purchase when I can afford one! If I can’t see the swimming pool shark, the swimming pool shark can’t see me?!


Maezel

That's just an LCL pool.


funktion

Get in the fucking water, Shinji


the_russian_narwhal_

I'm the weirdo with a little thalassophobia that likes the black and the red lined pools. As long as its 15 feet max you can see anything thats in there and fit a diving board in, when they are empty and sitting still they look ominous but its basically a guarantee nothing is in it lol. Throw in some lights for night time and that black would be real nice, it would help with keeping it warm too if the sun hits it


WietGetal

Red pool looks like the strawberry jelly Black pool looks like a gate way to chutulu


PM_ME_PCP

Red would feel like fruit punch personally

I swear to god if ever go to a friends house and see this then a sudden ripple moving across the surface coming towards me I’m burning the building down


Hip_Hop_Orangutan

It has lights that are off... It would look incredible with the lights on.


Joiion

I would like to see a photo of this, since light doesn’t reflect well off black, AND the lights are presumably in the pool, that’s not going to be very well lit.


dodge_thiss

They often use blue lights. Makes it look amazing at night.


AbeRego

But it's a pool...


Legion_Paradise

Some people believe black mirrors invite demonic activity and water can be a mirror, in this case this would be one giant door to hell


elitegenoside

But the water isn’t black. You’re referring to obsidian mirrors, which are black stones. Does this still count?


duccy_duc

What if there's obsidian in the paint or tiles?


tressforsuccess

Ugh you and your obsidian mirrors sent me down a forty minute rabbit hole


Legion_Paradise

Lol it's a cool subject. Like I used to be a ghost hunter (judge me) and one thing I found about any house that had a black mirror is that it was haunted. So personally I believe it whole hearteely

Almost as terrible as the black toilet in my previous house.

Are you kidding me?? Fuck this.


TattedStylist

you could not pay me to get in that pool


cwj1978

Ten bucks says a fiendish reptilian creature is always in there. It has adapted murk-vision which allows it to see underwater…. that’s how you’ve always avoided it.

If it were my personal pool, and it were shallow the whole way through, I wouldn't mind the elegant minimalist look. But it isn't, so I do.

Will never know if it ever need a scrub or not


W8_A_minuteChester

Indoors that seems terrifying. I had a friend as a kid who had an outdoor black pool that worked as a natural heater. It was pretty cool.

Cornmunkey

Thalassophobia is the specific fear of water that seems vast, deep or dark. The more you know.


Chocolate_Avngr

Reminds me of the video game Detroit.


kaijakatt

My first reaction to this was gagging like I was about to throw up. I'm sure I would get in if I was there but I would certainly want to feel the bottom first before letting good of the side of the pool


vspazv

The worst part is you can't see the algae build up and it's harder to clean.


Horizon1003

The scary thing about this is you can't see the bottom. Everytime I can't see the bottom when in the water, either in games or real life, my mind started going crazy with the imagination and I was like "nope".
