OK, so it’s sad that people are dying over this, but how can you not love a story about the underwater gnome colony? And, really, isn’t it a better story because the gnomes are potentially lethal, and have moved to a point where they are protected by the police’s own regulations?
Underwater gnome threat ‘returns’
A secret underwater attraction that lured several divers to their deaths could have returned, police say.
The “gnome garden” complete with picket fence was removed from the bottom of Wastwater in the Lake District after several divers died a few years ago.
It is thought they spent too much time at too great a depth while searching for the site of the ornaments.
Now police divers say there is a rumour that the garden has returned at a depth beyond which they are allowed.
