A Glittering Piece of History is Recovered From the Briny Deep
ASSOCIATED PEST
July 25, 2004
Deep Sea Defectives is proud to announce the recovery of the Andrea Doria's disco ball. World-famous deep-sea scuba diver John Chatterbox found the ball after mining hidden nuggets from blueprints and records of the vessel to determine its most likely location. He then did a hazardous penetration deep into the bowels of the wreck, which is lying on its side in crazy deep lotta water.
Right: Chatterbox "gets down" with some hot wreck-diving moves
