  This was from the San Jose Mercury News
  If you think YOU're having a BAD DAY !!!!!!!...........
  Fire Authorities in California found a corpse in a burnt out
  section of forest whilst assessing the damage done by a forest
  fire. The deceased male was dressed in a full wetsuit, complete
  with a dive tank, flippers and face mask. A post-mortem examination
  revealed that the person died not from burns but from massive internal
  injuries. Dental records provided a positive identification.
  Investigators then set about determining how a fully clad diver
  ended up in the middle of a forest fire. It was revealed that,
  on the day of the fire, the person went for a diving trip off
  the coast--some 20 kilometers away from the forest. The fire
  fighters, seeking to control the fire as quickly as possible, called
  in a fleet of helicopters with very large buckets. The buckets were
  dropped into the ocean for rapid filling, then flown to the forest
  fire and emptied.
  You guessed it!!! One minute our diver was making like Flipper
  in the Pacific, the next he was doing a breaststroke in a fire bucket
  300m in the air. Apparently, he extinguished exactly 1.78m (5'10") of
  the fire.
  Some days it just doesn't pay to get out of bed!!!!!
