New York magnet fisher catches safe full of soggy $100 bills
NEW YORK (AP) - James Kane has used a magnet to fish all manner of junk from New York City waterways, but stacks of $100 bills he pulled from a safe were something else entirely.
Kane's girlfriend, Barbi Agostini, 39, thought he was joking when he said their life was about to change, she told The Associated Press on Monday. She was filming as Kane, 40, pulled a slimy safe out of a lake in Flushing Meadows Corona Park and extracted bags of waterlogged Benjamins from inside it.
"Oh, that's money," Kane said Friday in video he posted online. "Oh, it is! Stacks of bills, dude!"
"Oh, my God!" Agostini said in the video.
