Swanage : United Kingdom | about 1 month ago  
Views: 22

Divers off of Swanage happened upon a WWII-era mine. When Royal Navy divers went down to check it out they found a lobster living in the hole where the parachute had been. They named the lobster Lionel and tried to remove it from the mine, but it wouldn't budge. In the end the mine was detonated with Lionel still inside, making him Lionel the Late Lobster.
