Technically speaking there is a way to see your own bioluminescence. Go into a dark room where there is no visible light. Then take a box of glowsticks, break them and pour the contents all over your body.

This experiment comes at a price...mild to severe skin irritation and possibly nausea and vomiting...and maybe cancer.

because fresh water fish aren't scared of the dark.

Oh the Deep Sea Angler Fish has no reason to be happy, but it has no freakin' idea what else to be.

How can you be grumpy, when the sun shines out your bum?

@holyshitmichael Yes, TCPO (main ingredient) is carcinogenic.

Looking up pictures of bioluminescent mushrooms reminded me of the movie Avatar. Can you do a show about the science behind Avatar?

Owww, that thing you do with you hands is not only difficult but hard to replicate. It also hurts.
