Cheek and friend, Mike Cherry, were in a fresh water spring in Florida on June 30 diving into a cave. The trip and dive were no different from any other, nothing spectacular happened except that Cherry kept having problems with his breathing apparatus. And, Cheek felt a little apprehensive about the dive for reasons he couldnt explain.
He had trouble getting down, said Cheek of Cherry, adding that Cherrys ears wouldnt clear up and he got what is called a mask wheeze, which means his nose started to bleed because of the pressure inside the mask caused by not having the air flow regulated just right.
But, the two decided to go on into the Little Devil anyway and finish the dive they had intended.
I felt so awkward at that hole, said Cheek as he looked back on the trip Friday.
The hole was the entrance to the cave they were planning to explore. Cheek said the entrance was 25 feet below the surface of the water and it is so small of an area that only one person can really go through it at a time. Cherry made the first entrance into the hole with Cheek above him snapping photos of his attempt.
The two made the dive, didnt see anything out of the ordinary, took a total of 17 pictures and returned home, satisfied with their trip.
Then Cheek gave the new underwater camera he had purchased to his wife, Kristen, to download the first photos he had ever taken on the camera to the computer. Kristen was looking at the photos as her husband told about the trip and how tight the entrance to the cave was. She saw what looked like a third man in the picture and asked her husband, If the entrance was so small then who is that man?
Cheek said for the first time he really looked at the photo and realized that she was right. He could see the outline of what looked like the bone structure or skeleton of a man wearing blue goggles and red shorts in the photo. There was only one problem there was no such person under water with them.
Honestly I just got chills, said Cheek after looking at the picture. I knew what I didnt see and here it is on my screen. ....
Fascinating! It has the makings of a wonderful ghost story...
Ok, so why the small photo? Why not provide a larger photo with more detail so that the fuzziness goes away and people could better interpret what’s in the “picture”?
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So they don’t get hammered by the “I’m a wuss with a dial-up connection” contingent.
Counting the “ghost,” there are three humanoids in the picture-—who took the picture?
Looks like a jackson pollack painting to me
Many years ago I dived in two caves a number of times. Morrison Springs and Vortex Springs in the panhandle of Florida. The last time I was there, I think the number of deaths was Morrison 34, Vortex in the teens. It was always kind of creepy being in total blackness knowing so many had died in there.
Those caves are damned spooky on a good day.
I’ve cylced this through my photoshop editor so many times now... and I still dont see the “blue goggles”...
The “head” just looks like a moneky with elephant ears...
What am I missing?
BOO!
Groucho????
Two poodles french kissing?
Hard to make out anything in that pic. Perhaps they should have practiced their new camera in a fish tank?
LOL that’s what I first thought when I saw the picture.
