Message in a bottle is a concept that most of us have seen in films. People used to write messages for their friends, families, or lovers and throw them away in the ocean. But this idea was not only limited to films; many people did it in real life too. Recently a man in Mississippi has gone viral online for finding a message in a bottle from 40 years ago.
In a Facebook post shared by Jeremy Weir, he explains that he is into treasure hunting, and on January 17, he found an old Grolsch bottle near Pearl River in Mississippi. He decided to take that bottle home and clean it up. Once it was clean, Weir found a letter inside the bottle, which was written on June 4, 1983.
The letter in the bottle read, "To the finder of mystery bottle, my name is David, and I live in Jackson, Mississippi. I am 3 years old. If you find my bottle, please call me. Good luck and happy hunting."
