I have been SCUBA diving for more than 8 years and have logged hundreds of dives. Next season (it's too cold for my taste now) I might just take a padlock, tension wrench and pick with me and pick it in about 100ft (30m) of seawater. I will be sure to have my dive buddy take a video if I do this :)

Would love to see the video when you make it. Keep us posted!
