Speaking of urban legend,
a friend told me a story about a forest fire patrol group
finding a burned body with a full set of melted scuba gear
on. The only thing they could figure was that this person
was picked up by a water loading/dropping helicopter.
Sounds logical, why would this person be wearing a wetsuit
and tank in the middle of a forest...
The helicopter could have scooped them right out of a lake
and dumped this poor soul in the heart of a raging fire.
I told him the story was bull, but as a diver I could see this
nightmare become reality...
Could this be true, or is this a legend anyone has heard ?
