Aussie´s Retrieve Beer Bottles From Down Under

SYDNEY, Australia - You may have counted bottles of beer on the wall, but have you ever counted them from a river bed? Residents in Sydney, Australia had the opportunity to do just that after a delivery truck carrying 24,000 bottles of beer plunged into the Tweed River. The delivery truck lost a wheel and crashed into the river. The truck was later salvaged, but half its contents remained in the river. That is when many people volunteered to retrieve the precious cargo. Some people donned scuba gear to retrieve the bottles, while others dove straight in. One man reportedly claimed 400 bottles. Although police considered it a theft, Police Inspector Stan Single proclaimed, I doubt whether in these circumstances we´ll be chasing people for convictions.

These people are THAT desperate for a beer? I'd say they were a bunch of alcholics. Would they do the same shit if it were a truck-load of Pepsi/Coke/7-Up/etc?

I would think that charging the tanks and using scuba equipment would cost more than buying the beer outright. Then again what the hell is there to do in Australia. Especially when Croc Dundee is your biggest export.

The Tweed River is about 700 miles north of Sydney. With the price of fuel in Oz, I don't think any residents of Sydney joined in the fracas. It is likely that residents of Coolangatta or Tweed Heads (Cities in the Gold Coast area) didn't go thirsty.
