If the ocean were emptied of all it's water what would fascinate you most?

Which ocean?

everything would fascinate me..

The rock formations; the underwater mountains.

The vastness of it.

Other: The buried treasure, of course! And what the hell ever happened to all those tea bags?

First of all I would be right upset if all the living things in the ocean didn't disappear WITH the water. I wouldn't want to see all kinds of rotting carcasses around - way too upsetting for me!
Sunken ships man, and how deep the ocean really is. Imagine to see it - easily deeper than the Grand Canyon!

I'd be fascinated by the fact the ocean was emptied.

The things in the deep which you can't normally see. The shape of the deep. The dead animals and plants would be very sad, though.

I'd hate to see it... if we were even around to see it by then. The oceans being devoid of water and our being able to walk out there means this planet is probably off its orbit and about to burn up. To answer the question, all of it would fascinate me... the vastness, the poor animals dying, the continental shelf, rock formations... all of it. This question reminds me off all those paintings I used to see quite often at craft shows in my hometown of the world covered by the ocean, or without it. Some of them were a bit surreal, like the one that had the ocean's level so high that the Statue of Liberty's eyes were barely above the water.
And damned if I can find one to show you.

The plants and animals. Excellent question.

Mmmm dead carcasses

> Which ocean?

The entire earth's ocean/sea.

> the hell ever happened to all those tea bags?

DAM!! I knew I forgot something. I kept telling myself ...... Buried Treasure! & look, that's the very one I forgot.

Yeah, I would like to see where all that sunken treasure was really at & how much of it.

That would be something to see those plane wrecks and ship wrecks like the Titanic would be soo neat

I'd be too concerned about all the water being gone and the likelihood that most of the life on the planet that was still left would also die.

The fact that I could walk there. I have a deep large body water phobia so this would feel very empowering. Then of course we would all die.

I say all of the sea caverns and stuff.

An abundance of sushi!

The environmental implications. Weather changes, water shortages, us changing how to plan cities, the increase in transportation prices, among other things.

I think the vastness of it would be interesting, and I'd like seeing some of the rock formations. I wouldn't want to see any of the first four things listed, though. And I would hate for it to actually happen, since it would be really, really bad for the planet.

all the crap mankind has dumped into the ocean

The lost treasure from the shipwrecks...

Old skulls and bones would be pretty cool, and the fish would make a disgusting smell.

Mariana Trench & divergent boundaries.

We're all going to die!!!!

Where all that water went.

What's left of the ship and airplane wrecks.
