Diver Finds Skeletons in Colorado River

A Gruesome Scene!

A diver goes into the Colorado River in Parker, Arizona for a little fun. Then he happens upon a gruesome scene. Two skeletons sitting in lawn chairs in the midst of a tea party! What has he come across?

The Sheriff’s Department is notified and after they arrive decide to call in the Fire Department to investigate. They soon realized that this was not a crime scene but one staged with fake skeletons. One of the skeletons held a sign that read “Bernie living the dream in the river August 16, 2014.” This was an apparent reference to the movie Weekend at Bernie’s.

Although it resulted in a complete waste of resources, this is a pretty hilarious and elaborate joke that someone decided to play. The Sheriff’s Department has decided not to pursue the person behind this prank and have actually put the two skeletons on display outside of their station to keep the prank going.

Watch the video and imagine how you would feel if you came across this scene.
