Kayak angst (Danish: kajaksvimmelhed "kayak dizziness" or kajakangst, Greenlandic: nangiarneq) or nangierneq (Inuit languages) is a condition likened to a panic attack which has historically been associated with the Greenlandic Inuit. It has specifically been described as an episode of intense anxiety amongst seal hunters fishing on one-man boats. It has additionally been associated with the Igloolik Inuit of Northern Canada who are said to suffer wild hallucinations of mythical spirits including visions of a 'sea ermine'.
