On a beach in the Bahamas, Clint Buffington and his brother found a Pepsi bottle with a message inside. The bottle has the number 75 on it, which might mean it was made in 1975. Inside the bottle was a letter from a ninth-grade student called Peter Thompson. He wrote the letter as part of a school science experiment in 1976. The bottle was thrown into the Marramac River in Massachusetts by Peter when he was 14 years old.
