Hmmm.... I found a sweet pair of sunglasses that fit me perfectly. I then re-donated them to the scuba gods off the coast of Maui.
I've found drivers licenses, snorkels, and fishing hooks that were still baited with fishermen up on the shore of the lake.
My buddy and I pulled on them to imitate fish but they must not have been paying attention. We pulled them for about 20 feet and they never tried to reel them back in.
I did get nervous that they'd yank and inject my hand with a hook... ouch!
 
I found a half full bottle of whiskey complete with barnicales growing on the outside..Im to scared to try it.......

Don't drink that stuff.
I was diving in the mediteranian and I found wat looked to be an ancient ceramic vas filled with a black fishy smelling substance. I presumed that I had discovered garum
the beloved fish sauce of ancient Rome. Well I made a salami sandwitch and smothered it with that stuff. Since then a lot of my hair fell out and I am irritable and have repeated dreams of Mike Nelson beating me up.
