Yep, another diver here, with a postage stamp size cert card from the YMCA.
I'm currently a commercial dive gear monger. (http://comdive.com)
After a fairly long stretch in the commercial diving industry, I was no longer able to lie my way through the required physicals.

Yah, one dive in the Edison Sault Power Canal turned up everything from a couple swords to parking meters, bicycles, & a couple guns.
Mostly stuff that had been ripped off & ditched in the canal to dispose of it.

There was one spot in the Chicago Shipping & Sewage Canal that had so many "stolen" cars piled up that the tug & barge tows were hitting them.

Eventually you'll find everything that is within several miles of a body of water sitting on the bottom.
