As always thanks to Judy and Aqua Sport Scuba for putting on such a great event. This is always my favorite dive of the year. We did not win for best pumpkin this year but then again we never do. The biggest pumpkin weighed some 42 lbs i believe and took 60 lbs worth of lead to get down. The diver that did it did it solo. It was funny to watch, some of the video below, it also took the diver 2 tanks to get the pumpkin down. By the time he got it out there and down he had burnt through one tank so he had to go back and get another.
You can see, in the video above, the largest pumpkin, in the background, trying to get down. At one point the diver was bucked off while trying to get it down. Quite a site.
This video is of the pumpkin fountain. The fountain is made up of 4 pumpkins. There are 2 little pumpkins inside the bowl of the fountain.
