Uncomfortable during underwater scenes in movies

Whenever movies have scenes where the actors are swimming underwater, holding their breath, I feel uncomfortable in my chest area (as though I too should be holding my breath). Does anyone else experience this?

Is It Normal?

  • Not only do I do what the posters above me do as well, but I also get pretty uncomfortable when the camera shows very deep water.

  • Yes!! I always thought no one else did this! Whenever I see people underwater on TV, I cant help but hold my breath until they come to the surface. I even swim on my high school swim team and am very used to and very unafraid of the water, yet I still get that uncomfortable feeling in my chest when I see this on TV.

  • Me too! I kinda try to hold my breath with them, like if they're dying down there...
