Top Ten Reasons You Shouldn't Swim In a Unknown and Lonely Lake Situated In a Forest

You are in a wild forest and you see a lake in front of you. The lake is too calm and you don't know much about the place and the lake. The lake is away from human settlement, so therefore you weren't able to get others opinions on this matter.
The Top Ten
1 The Lake Can Be the Home of a Group of Alligators

Really true, Kieretsunu! I checked this list bcos the title was long and interesting... Bye!

2 The Water Can Be Poisonous

I've played a lot of RPGs, and even though a lot of forest springs are nice, I just can't trust going anywhere near the water. You have no idea what it could have in it, even your skin could get contaminated.

There can be many factors why the water can be poisonous. High cyanide content, too much acidity, etc.

Well, yes, this is a good factor to take into consideration I suppose...

3 Because the Lake Is Unknown

This would make me want to swim in the lake more, actually.

4 Possibility of a Bull Shark
5 Deadly Germs Could Have Contaminated the Water

Still tempted to go for a swim? Cross your fingers there's no Naegleria fowleri lurking in there.

6 The Lake Water Maybe Radioactive
7 Unknown Underwater Creatures May Attack You
8 It Could Be a Portal to the Unknown Where the Beast Lives

I would be so scared!

9 You May Drown
10 The Water Can Be Too Hot Because Its Source Is a Natural Hot-spring
The Contenders

Lol, this title is fantastic!

12 It Could Be a Portal to Hell
13 The Water May Contain Arsenic
14 You Can't Swim
