Diving is always underwater

Here's some action shots! A strut fell off the footbridge into the Meuse today. We happened to pass by the moment a maintenance team arrived to rake it out. Two people dived while another five (and later seven) looked on.

Then the divers unhooked the strut from a cable that was preventing it from sinking.

Finally, they tied a rope to it and the dry members of the team pulled it out. Job's a good'un.
