That's...horrifying
Reminds me of those little crabs at the bottom of the ocean. Or they might have been shrimps. But their main claw arm snaps shut so quickly, and with so much power that for less than a second, the entire ocean is displaced. Their claw makes an air pocket, which then fills in with the pressure of the oecan less then a second later.That pressure is strong enough to instantly knock out or kill decent sized fish which the crab then eats. That claw snap shuts with so much power that for something much less than a nanosecond, temperatures reach up into the kelvins. Can't remember the name for the life of me. But yeah.
temperatures reach up into the kelvins.
No seriously, it seems like anything that comes out of the water looks like it'll maw your face off ;-;
Not anymore dangerous or terrifying than the rest of the world.

The water pressure is very high. The pressure from the water would push in on the person’s body, causing any space that’s filled with air to collapse. (The air would be compressed.) So, the lungs would collapse. At the same time, the pressure from the water would push water into the mouth, filling the lungs back up again with water instead of air. But if there’s no air-filled space to be pushed into, the body would not be crushed. (Part of the problem with the old pressure suits that deep-sea divers used to use was that if they depressurized, the soft part of the suit and the entire body would be crushed into the rigid helmet. This is one of the big reasons that divers don’t use suits like this anymore.) (4) At high pressures, the chemistry of how the body works changes. If the person did have some way of getting air into their system, their body would immediately undergo what’s called "nitrogen narcosis." This happens because at high pressures, nitrogen is much more soluble in water (or blood) than oxygen is. And especially since air is mostly nitrogen, the blood would become full of dissolved nitrogen. The nitrogen would bind to the parts of the body that need to use oxygen, and the person would literally suffocate from the inside out.

The ocean is a terrifying place
