Did You Know?

"Out of your depth" means being in a situation too difficult to handle — perfect for describing both deep water and awkward first dates! Scuba diving actually requires extensive training, with most certification courses taking 3-4 days to complete. Interestingly, many diving instructors say the hardest part isn't the technical skills, but helping nervous students overcome their fear of being underwater.
