Of course! It's a can not a can't.

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.

I can't find the Fanta can but they have a Budwiser and a Spam can. They both feature in a video clip about trash in the deep ocean.

It doesn't say at the bottom of the trench :0

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
I'm just a poor can, I need no sympathy

Easy open, never closed, drunk up high and sent below
Any way the current flows it doesn't really matter to starmie

Mama, just dropped this can
Threw my garbage overboard
Now a fish will see the Lord

[–] Spiralvortexisalie@lemmy.world 8 points 4 months ago

Mama, pollution had just begun But now Ive gone and thrown myself in a bay

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.

For some reason I read that tweet in JFK's voice

[–] Bhaelfur@lemmy.world 12 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Foah suppah, I er uh would like a party plattah

[–] radicalautonomy@lemmy.world 5 points 4 months ago (1 children)

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

[–] Madison420@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago

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

[–] Olhonestjim@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago

Better aluminum than plastic.

But there's plenty of that down there too.
