The water conditions were perfect — “beautiful, clear, green” — when Sean Smyrichinsky went diving last month off the north coast of British Columbia.
The 45-year-old Canadian had joined two friends for a three-week fishing expedition. Setting off on his own one day, Smyrichinsky went searching for sea cucumbers that their small crew could harvest the following day.
Using a DPV, or a diver propulsion vehicle, Smyrichinsky plunged 25 to 30 feet down into the bay.
Ahead of him, a mysterious object emerged.
“And I thought, what a cool rock formation,” he said. “It’s perfectly round.”
As he approached the formation, Smyrichinsky discovered it wasn’t a rock, but something that appeared man-made.
It was perfectly round, he noted, with circles and bowls “the size of basketballs” cut into it.
He rushed back to the surface to tell his friends, boat captain Richard Hamilton and fellow diver Chrissy Anderson, about the bizarre object he had spotted. [snip]
Did they put it on ebay?
What would you want with a sea cucumber? are they edible?
But is wasn't a rock, it was a ROCK LOBSTER.....
“I thought those things were deadly poisonous?”
That’s what the sea cucumbers tell you, but they have a bias.
Sea pickles?
Sea Cucumbers are the only animal without a brain.
They are found in Berkley, Boston, Oakland, Seattle, San Francisco.....
Sorry, the article said it was a B-36 not a B-52. :-)
See, this is why I'm addicted to Freerepublic....
LOL.
Yes, I was trying to go back through my B-36 books to look up the potential accident information, but my Kindle ereader is not at work.
He should have banged on the bomb to make sure it was inert.
The man diving off the coast of British Columbia, Canada, may have stumbled upon a nuclear weapon that the United States lost decades ago.
Now, the Royal Canadian Navy is scoping out the strange object to see if it is indeed a Mark IV bomb that was jettisoned by an American pilot in 1950 just before his plane crashed.
The man, Sean Smyrichinsky, was using an underwater scooter to hunt for sea cucumbers near Pitt Island, when he came upon a weird bagel-shaped object. After straying from his boat, he came upon a bizarre object that looked a bit like a half-cut bagel the size of a king-sized bed, he told CBC.
The US and Canada kept the knowledge quiet to try to make sure our opponents didn’t go fishing. Countries like Russia had just gotten the bomb and were still looking for knowledge to expand their project technology.

I wonder if the sea cucumber was abnormally large due to the radiation? Why do I ask? I remember the constant thread about the Japanese sea monster movies in the 60’s was “nuke ‘til they grow.”
I don’t know anything about sea cucumbers. I doubt that what they found was a nuclear bomb.
It was all true
Sea slug - Sea cucumber = yeccchhh
