Lake Windermere is the largest lake in England — but that didn’t stop freediver Angus Hosking from stepping up and making the day of a woman who lost her diamond engagement ring there.
Just two days after the proposal — and two days after receiving the ring — a woman named Rebecca Chaukria accidentally lost the ring.
Local people connected Rebecca with Angus — and Angus got to work.
Wearing a snorkel and wetsuit — and using an underwater metal detector — he dove deep and searched for about 20 minutes before finding the ring at the bottom of the lake and returning it to the happy couple.
Angus has a great reputation in the community as he and a friend spend their free time removing litter from nearby lakes. Because of this goodwill and notoriety, he says more and more people are calling on him “in their time of need.”
The couple were all smiles when Angus came to the surface with the ring in hand. And, if travel restrictions allow it, they would love to invite Angus to their wedding in August. (WLS-TV)
