Anyone who has ever tried carving a pumpkin probably knows how hard that is.

Now try doing it underwater.

A creative group of scuba divers competed in an annual pumpkin carving contest in the waters off Key Largo, Florida Saturday.

Nearly 2 dozen artists, working in teams of two, used dive knives and carving tools.

They were about 30 feet deep near a coral reef.

The big challenge: keeping the naturally buoyant pumpkins from floating away while they carved them.

Two divers from Detroit took first place.

Their jack-o’-lantern showed two eels around a heart.

The winners received a free dive trip in Key Largo.
