John Cordingley diving to search for a resurgence in the bed of Altausseer See in 1989. Impenetrable risings in sand and rocks were eventually found at a depth of 36m, but rather more excitement was caused by the finding of a human humerus, and later a foot in a shoe. These turned out to be part of a local man who had fallen from a boat and drowned in 1955.
