    If his drysuit was recovered, who did he get out of it?  It seems
    very strange that a body can leave the suit.

    I am not trying to be comical here --- but was this guy Houdini?
    Is he playing some kind of practical joke?

    I appreciate any comments.

The suit was featured on the front page of one of this morning's
papers.  The legs appear intact, as do the arms, from the ends of the
shoulder entry zipper to the cuffs.  The neck seal, a section from the
back below the zipper and most of the chest area and right side, almost
to the crotch, are missing.  The appearance is ragged in these
sections.  The speculation is that this damage, probably by a shark,
was caused on the bottom after his death.  It is under examination by
the curator of Manly Oceanworld and the Coroner's office.
