Archimedes and Darwin claimed another one, when a 13 year old boy tied a heavy chain around his waist before trying to swim across a 15 foot deep pond.
The incident is being blamed on the imitation of a movie that showed a surfer who trained by running across the ocean floor toting a huge rock.
Too bad the young boy hadn't seen any wiseguy films, or he'd have known that men who wear cement shoes end up sleeping with the fishes.
