Found this when snorkling in Greece about 17 years ago when i was just a kid. Always wondered what it was... Anyone an idea? Almost certainly made of metal and i think it is hollow on the inside. (lemmy.world)

I always thought it might've came from a fishing boat. I guess that could still be the case. Pretty funny.

Yeah, cool for you and a priceless reminder of a childhood vacation.

Just not something worth any money or even worth passing down thru the family.

If you ever watch Mitchell and Webb they have a bit where archeologists find a VHS cassette of a toga party and insist it's an authentic recording from ancient Rome.
