I used to have the deep-lake-foot fear as well. I bet there is an entire class of irrational fears that have an almost universal quality. Foot-off-bed-in-dark is probably pretty common. My current only irrational fear is that I don't want my wife to ride the bike I bought her to work because I'm afraid she'll get in an accident. Chances are so low, and I have no problem with taking her on the back of my motorcycle or her driving. I think this one stems from the fact that she won't wear a bike helmet. Anyway, the amount if preoccupation I feel is greater than any real risk, but there you go. When I'm not actively dreading her biking to work, I'm asking her why she's not biking to work because it's so close by. Yeah.
