Ouch! Lost My D4 Combo Today

#1

Post by MANIXWORLD »

Well,decided to go on this hikingtrip in the mountains today
and after about an hour's walk,i decided to go for a swim in a river running thru the mountain.
I noticed this rock ledge,about 3 stories high on the side of the river.
Decided to jump down the ledge,into the river.
I had my combo edge D4 in my backpocket and as i jumped down the rockledge,swam to the riverbank got out and felt my D4's gone.sunk to the depths below of the merky riverwater.

I am very interested in knowing what other treasures are sunken to the dephts of this riverbed.
Fact is,im the only one that knows there is a D4 at the bottom.
heck,for all i know some other classic Spydie/s,at the bottom of the river, have now found a new friend(my D4)along with some other things lying on the riverbed, like watches,coins and maybe a set of false teeth?!!

Just how deep is the water? Could you get to the bottom with snorkling gear? Probably lots of treasures down there.

Sorry for your loss it does really suck to loose a spydie.

dude,the river is deep,real deep and the water isn't clear at all/dark, so its bye-bye once you lose something.
imagine i was wearing a TAG or worse a ROLEX, and lost it.I would be real sad.

Darn, that really sucks, my first spydie purchase (a FRN Dragonfly) is also rusting away at the bottom of a body of water.
