Mermaids Are Real!

[badcrumbs]

also they would be able to cause sailors to hallucinate and see them as a beautiful woman and when they try getting closer the effects where off and they see the truly terrifying creature in front of them but it's to late the mermaid grabs on to the sailors legs and drowns them

But we already have those, they're Sirens from Greek mythology. Unless Mermaids and Sirens are the same, then?

The Pirates of the Caribbean mermaids are scary as ****.

well they are associated with mermaids
so I guess tech. though depends on what sort of siren
there's the mermaid like ones, and there are ones that are more similar to birds

also on a side note I honestly prefer the bird version

I think the bird-like ones are called "Harpys", which is hilarious.

My favorite nautical mythical crature is the kelpie.

They will have people legs and the body of an angler fish.

I'd love to see art work of this.

There are many types of mermaids who each have their own abilities and skills. Some types have the ability to speak human languages and certain types can't speak but can vocalize in a nonhuman way. There are rules and customs that merfolk need to live by. It's for the safety of their kind and they must protect their home. I know all about this from my own experiences.

Merpeople are too scared of humans to swim near the surface or the shore. Even if one does one up to the shore their fins transform into legs if they are dry.

Your own experiences? I thought they were scared of humans? Contradictory much?

I think she is one.

Are there mermaids that use fire breath? How do they feed if their primary attack method for killing prey will be nullified by the underwater wonderland that they inhabit?

Do they have the ability to be a Radio 1 DJ?

It's kind of rude to just dismiss people's personal beliefs like that, you know.

That being said, I myself belief that there are many creatures in this world and not that we have yet to discover, and mermaids could be one of them. I really like mythology, so whether or not these creatures actually exist, I'm not too bothered either way.

how magical and scientifically possible wow.

i would love to know how you knew this or if this is your own theory.

It would be really cool to see a mermaid, like in H2O: Just Add Water​

I would imagine them to be much uglier, fishier, and smellier than that.

quite impossible considering that our human skin cant even last that long in water without shriveling up like a raisin so if mermaids did exist, they would look nothing like the ones in H2O.

Eh It seems pretty fishy to me (pun intended).
