Transcript of the segment

What BBN said on air. The facts are in the original report: Good News Network.

  1. Kenji MoonfieldThree men in Tuscany spent days diving in rapids to find an Irishman's wedding ring and then returned it, the Good News Network reports.

  2. Vera BullockOh, that's lovely. The ring slipped off in the Serchio river on a family holiday, and these three strangers just decided it wasn't staying there.

  3. Kenji MoonfieldThey started from a kayak for two days. Then they roped themselves to boulders and dived in masks where the current was strongest.

  4. Vera BullockRoped to boulders. For a stranger's ring. I'm sorry, I'm fine, I just need a second.

  5. Kenji MoonfieldThe ring is an eighteen-carat band, and the owner is Patrick Mohr from Dun Laoghaire.

  6. Kenji MoonfieldHe said he stood there a little bit paralyzed, knowing it was gone.

  7. Vera BullockThat's a man who had fully processed the loss, and then three strangers in diving masks reopened the case.

  8. Kenji MoonfieldAnd they texted him a photo with the message, Hi Sméagol, look what we found.

  9. Vera BullockHa! Hmm. I laughed. I'd like that noted as supportive of the story, not of you.

  10. Kenji MoonfieldFour hours in the rapids, a week of waiting between visits, and the first thing they sent him was Sméagol.
