Scuba, sheriff style



Two years ago, someone jumped from The Bluffs on the Hiwassee River and belly-flopped. It knocked him out and all of the air inside of him. He sank like a rock. The Sheriff's deputies were right there in their patrol boat. But no one could rescue him in 19 feet of water. Two years later, they have a certified team that trains regularly, making the teenage boys think twice about jumping.
