This is one of those TRUE stories that keeps going round. I've heard it lots of
times in the last few years. It involves snorkelers, scuba divers, sharks and
even whales. One thing that is NEVER the same in all the versions of the story
is the LOCATION. Makes you wonder, huh. I'm pretty certain it started as one of
those 'creative thinking' exercises along the lines of
'Man-found-in-field-with-backpack-how-did-he-get-there?'
