What is the weirdest story you ever heard?

[Carl Brennan]

Here is a story, backed up with sources that I no longer have, that simply is the weirdest.

There was this forest fire in California and it had burned itself out after being fought for some time. Investigators were walking through the very large burn area and there on the ground lay a person dead, unburned and attired in a full scuba outfit: flippers, wetsuit, snorkel the works.


What do you think of that?

I'll tell you the ending after awhile.
