About this Gallery

There's no real explanation as to why, but there really is something fascinating about weirdly gigantic objects. Some may find them interesting, while others get the heebie-jeebies with only the thought of oversized objects. And if you have Megalophobia, you will hate to look at such things. While not discussed frequently as other phobias like acrophobia, this fear can make you feel like a small bug, even when you are looking at mundane objects like planes, statues or ships. Like it or not, the internet has it all to give you the chills. Here, we bring you 43 enlarged objects that may remind you of just how small you really are and trigger the megalophobia in you.

The foggy chills: Many people think fog is soothing. However, it shells out quite a creepy vibe too. Especially, when you see the ghostly fog swirling around on an empty beach and suddenly, a giant ship shows up— you might want to turn around and run away!

Underwater waterfalls in Mauritius: An underwater waterfall? Yes. Well, sort of! Off the coast of a small island in Mauritius in the Indian Ocean, there is what appears to be a waterfall submerged in the ocean itself. The waterfall is actually an optical illusion formed by sand and silt deposits.

Ocean sunfish, also known as Mola Mola fish: Mola mola— it's so nice that we have to say it twice! Also known as the ocean sunfish, it is one of the two heaviest known bony fish in the world, the other being the southern sunfish of the same genus. Scientists suggest that it can grow more than 10 feet long. For being so visually interesting, the mola is a bit of a mystery, very little is known about its behaviour. However, one thing is clear that it feeds on small fishes, squid and mostly jellyfish.

Mega Ships: Do you remember the Suez Canal fiasco? The cargo ship blocked Egypt's waterway, causing chaos in shipping traffic for nearly a week. It made us all realise how big ships really are. The largest ships in the world can carry up to 24,000 containers and reportedly measure over 61 meters at their widest point. What is even more freaky is the fact that a huge amount of the ship is actually under the water. When out of the water and parked, its size can scare the bejesus out of you!
