Some people like to fly , some like to explore the ocean depths . Some like to view the world from above , some like to see the world through reflections under the ocean waters . So if you were given a choice , would you choose " WINGS " and take a flight in the beautiful an never-ending sky , or would you choose " FINS " and dive into the mystical waves ?

(warning, practical answer ahead) Uh, I would choose wings because fins without a way to breathe underwater wouldn't be of much use, would they? :P Not to mention that while high altitudes can be tough for a person to handle, deep depths are considerably worse. At least in the air I wouldn't have to worry about descending too quickly (rising to the surface too quickly after being significantly deep underwater (like the depths the average scuba diver can reach) causes the bends, a condition that is quite capable of killing)). Also, sea water. Ew. At least when airborne animals defecate, their waste falls to the ground, lol.

A perfect kinda answer i needed , but still dude when the altitude is high , then you would have some great breathing problems ! So you need to think on this too!

could you not defeat both problems by wearing an oxygen device of some sort? Of course it would have to be a lightweight one as not to cause to much additional weight....something tells me all this practicality is making us loose sight of our imaginations... :)

Oh that's a tough one. It would be interesting to have fins (and gills, I assume) and be able to explore the depths of the ocean. Imagine being able to explore the Titanic without needing a submersible, to be able to touch those artifacts with your bare hands, to hold them and know that you're holding a true piece of history. Or to be able to search for Atlantis, or try to get photos of the elusive giant squid... oh that would be cool. Flying would be fun, too. Especially if long distance flight were possible -- one could do quite a bit of traveling without having to pay a lot of money. To be able to see fireworks displays from the sky would probably be pretty cool, or to just take in the scenery exploring the sky... I think ultimately I'd take fins though.

Well its good if you would choose the fins as the see seems something of a big mystery to me ! It looks great when i see those blue waters and want to dive into it , but i do not know how to swim !

I would have wings, because I like looking out the window on planes so being able to fly up at any minute and get that view would be incredible. Plus you could get anywhere in the world pretty quickly and soaring... i think i'd quite like to soar lol. What about you?
