    A scuba diver in Florida is suing a utility company after he was sucked into a quarter-mile-long pipe that took him inside a nuclear power plant.

    Christopher Le Cun said he was scuba diving off the coast of Hutchinson Island with friend Robert Blake last summer when the pair went down to investigate three large shadows underneath a yellow buoy.

    “I swam right up to this big structure and it looks like a building underwater. I felt a little bit of current. All of a sudden it got a little quicker and I said, ‘this ain’t right, this ain’t right,’” Le Cun told WPTV.

    Blake said Le Cun got “sucked in like a wet noodle.”

    Gold medalist Cullen Jones came to us with his BMW 6 series already wrapped and on wheels. The wrap was old and worn and definitely needed to be re-done. The wheels had also seen better days so we opted to go ahead and replace those with Niche Misano 22″ wheels. With the help of Sunsational Glass Tinting the car got a full satin black vinyl wrap as well as tinted tailights, headlights, badges, and windows. It all received a full exterior and interior detail courtesy of @lasting_impressionss. The car came together great and Cullen couldn’t be more pleased!

    Before coming to William & Mary, Joshua “Josh” Zimmt ’17, only saw himself as “just a swimmer.” Now, Josh has taken on a rather unique name.
