I have an intense fear or anything large underwater?

Whales, seaweed and the open ocean are the worst.
I really can't stand whales especially, and i know that they are friendly and wouldn't try to eat/kill me but whenever people talk about them or i see a picture of them i freak out!
Does anyone else feel like this? Am i normall and does this fear have a name?

    Yep. I am afraid of large sea creatures too. Something about these gigantic things living below the surface...

    I am deathly afraid of vast open water, and if I can't stand in it I don't want to be there. But, I agree, my fear is with giant squid....they are just weird.

    You are scared of just a picture of a sea mammal? That's ridiculous.

    The scariest large underwater object is the submarine, because it can shoot missiles to attack you on land.

    I feel the same way. One of the scariest moments of my life was swimming in the ocean and touching the bottom, feeling a smooth surface with a little give to it, and thinking I was stepping on a whale. I don't know why but it scared the crap out of me. The idea of a sunken ship gets me too.

    oh my gosh.. Yes! I am extremely phobic of anything submerged in water.. sunken ships, machinery, even the tank in the back of the toilet terrifies me. also buoys. and water towers.

    I'm afraid of the ocean, think about how big it is and how its filled with creatures! Whales are scary because they're like impossibly big. They're eyeball is as big as my body.
