"If you gaze into the abyss, the abyss gazes into you."

A quote from Friedrich Nietzsche, somewhat out of context, but I always think of it when swimming with the predators. Barracudas are generally not aggressive, but have a bad reputation for two reasons. First, they look mean and deadly. Second, they are attracted to shiny things and so can get a little unexpectedly curious (sometimes even bubbles are shiny enough). Best to avoid dangly shiny jewelery, though!
