Man Searches Dump For Wife's Ring

Man searches dump for wife’s ring- A 34-year-old man searches for his wife’s ring in a garbage dump. Brian McGuinn from Florida sought help from the garbage company when he accidentally threw out his wife’s engagement ring in the garbage dump. They gave him a suit and goggles, and leveled out an area for him to search. It seemed hopeless as Brian McGuinn stood before a 9-ton mountain of rotten garbage, desperately hoping to find his wife’s engagement ring.


McGuinn accidentally tossed out the 1.5-carat engagement ring in the trash with a disposable razor the night before. On Halloween day, McGuinn donned a protective suit and mask and waded through the trash. Crews warned him it was hopeless. A worker offered to get a bulldozer to make the search easier. Ten minutes later, McGuinn found a cup from his wife’s favorite dessert spot and found their trash bag but the contents were spilled everywhere. He took off his gloves, reached into a pool of black sludge and miraculously pulled out the engagement ring.
