It’s enjoy an elderly Florida fable or iminwholey tale. It’s also enjoy the Florida Man headline, enjoy ‘Florida Man Finds Mermhelp.’ That actupartner was sort of the genesis of it, enjoy you would hear someskinnyg about this in The Tampa Times… There was also a video of a sailor out at sea that I saw, way back in the day. He was alone on a boat, and he could equitable hear these weird sounds that could only be portrayd as a screwed up, frightening mermhelp, and that finished in making the mermhelp frightening. – Tyler Cornack
