If you were visiting a marina to potentially trade some PSA cards for a yacht and you brought the cards in a briefcase and suddenly a gang of jewel thieves starts shooting at the cops as they make a get away in a speed boat and a bullet enters the brief case and cuts through the label of one of the money cards but doesn't hit the card (thank god) but then you dive out of the way and the briefcase falls from your hand, off the dock, and into the water. would the card itself be damaged by the water? serious question, discuss.

    image Where the cops really after you and then found bigger fish to fry? image On a serious note, knowing a few things about water, if there is even a microscopic path to the card ... the water will find it. I wonder if PSA's sealant is dissolvable???

    Water doesnt hurt cards....but the fuel in the water from the speeding away boat could.

    Are PSA cases watertight without a bullet hole? Me thinks not.

    Not everything is as obvious as it seems Vlad Guerrero, knowing the little details makes or breaks situations.
    That's why they have investigators and scientists.

    So basically my kid won't be able to go to college, but at least I'll have a set where the three most expensive cards are of a player I despise ~ CDsNuts

    Speaking about drowning. Did you know that according to the World Health Organization, drowning is the 3rd leading cause of unintentional injury death worldwide, accounting for 7% of all injury related deaths (est. 388,000 deaths by drowning in 2004, excluding those due to natural disasters), with 96% of deaths in low and middle income countries?

    In many countries, drowning is one of the leading causes of death for children under 12 years old. For example, in the United States, it is the second leading cause of death (after motor vehicle crashes) in children 12 and younger. The rate of drowning in populations around the world varies widely according to their access to water, the climate and the national swimming culture.

    Drowning itself is quick and silent, although it may be preceded by distress which is more visible. A person drowning is unable to shout or call for help, or seek attention, as they cannot obtain enough air. The instinctive drowning response is the final set of autonomic reactions in the 20 - 60 seconds before sinking underwater, and to the untrained eye can look similar to calm safe behavior. Lifeguards and other persons trained in rescue learn to recognize drowning people by watching for these instinctive movements.
    Drowning occurs more frequently in males and the young. Surveys indicate that 10% of children under 5 have experienced a situation with a high risk of drowning
