I'll call bullshit until someone is happy to point a better source out. The original tweet seems to be the only source.

The logo at least lines up with a real expedition but could still be fake obviously.

It's probably true that it's in the very deep ocean because that can is an old design and isn't rusting, which means it's an oxygen-poor environment.

If this were reddit, the comments would have completed the song. Sigh

Open your tabs, look up to the surface and see

Thankfully this isn't reddit.

One thing I* won't miss about that place is seeing the same damn jokes and tropes being reposted over and over again, day after day. It stopped being funny in 2008.

If it was "The Deep" who put the can there, then it would have been a Fresca.

Weirdly enough fanta is literal Nazi soda so it would be a homelander/storm front thing.

Better aluminum than plastic.

But there's plenty of that down there too.
