I don't know. I could picture Lady Macbeth-- Hillary -- floating her bloat; though am clawing at my eyes at the thought . . .

Found this on Friday off Cape Ann...

Hey! My porn collection!
 
Aside from the usual assortment of weights, masks; the occasional fin, I found a bikini top firmly -- and I mean firmly -- attached to a decorator crab a while back . . .

Doesn't look like the crab was big enough to fill the bikini.

The funny thing was, that I saw the top scurrying, flopping diagonally, across a boulder in Carmel, CA; and, for the life of me, I couldn't figure out what I was seeing. I feared a case of "crazy eye."

No joke, that thing was firmly attached somehow . . .
 
What, if anything, have you found and salvaged on your dives? I'm not talking about scavenging wrecks, I'm just curious to know what items, if any, all of you have stumbled upon while diving.

Here's my list to date :

4 kg of lead weights
2 masks
1 snorkel
1 safety sausage
1 bottle of champagne
1 dive knife with integrated bottle opener
assorted litter

Most of the stuff I have found the Government would not be interested in. So,
fishing lures
Countless Beer bottles and what was left of the cans
cheap Sunglasses
a Cheap Diamond Engagement Ring (probably not real diamond)
A rusty nail (resulting in a tetanus shot)
Hours and hours of fun.
 
parts of old china, over 50 lbs of lead sinkers, old bottles, fishing poles, spear shafts, polespears, knives, a tool box, a few tackle boxes, anchors, a old sounding lead, a few pairs of sunglasses one was even usable, much more stuff that I can't think of right now.
 
On my last OW checkout dive I found a fairly new snorkel. :)
