Sounds like a Tony Bennett song.
Well, there you go. Upvote the best stupid pun on the first page and that poster wins.

A human foot that washed ashore on Vancouver Island in December belonged to a Washington state man, officials said Wednesday, the 13th such case of a foot behind found along British Columbia's coast since 2007.
Stanley Okumoto, 79, was reported missing in September 2017 by authorities in Kitsap County and some partial remains were discovered in November of that year near Neah Bay, the Sooke News Mirror reported.
In December, a tibia and fibula attached to a human foot with a white sock and running shoe washed up on the Canadian island along the Jordan River, according to The Seattle Times.
Mike Johns, 56, told CTV Vancouver Island News in December he and his dog were walking along the river and the dog made the discovery. He said the foot was “totally intact.”
It was unclear how Okumoto died. The New York Times reported the leg was found in a section of British Columbia known as “king tides.” Officials believed the strong currents could have brought the foot from Washington to Canada.
It's not clear if there's any link between the gruesome discoveries.

I'll bet the dog was kinda pissed when they took that foot away from him!

I bet this is yakuza related. I wonder how many of those feet floated over from Japan?

I haven’t seen any info about the decomposition of the remains that have been found, but a possible answer is they’re finding remains from a plane crash.
When the commercial planes go in nose first and have massive deceleration, like the kind that crushes the fuselage lengthwise, I’ve read that feet are routinely removed from the victims by that bar at the bottom of the seatbacks.

Cost of living in the northwest is an arm & a foot.

It's early, but I think we have a winner.

I remember when the first few feet started washing up on the beaches. How odd.
I watched a documentary about them and it was disovered that some feet were from a person who jumped off a bridge, one was a missing person, etc.
The feet disarticulate from the body when it sinks and decomposes, because they are in tennis shoes they end up floating. The currents push them along till they land in the same general area.
I will see if I can find the documentary.

He bravely ventured to conquer the sea but alas returned a defeated man.
