Dan Leach Makes Crazy, Shirtless Eagle Attempt From Algae-Filled Pond [VIDEO+PHOTOS]

One thing is for sure, a moment with Dan Leach is never dull.

Leach was golfing with Jeff Lesson at the Bay Harbor Golf Club in northern Michigan, one of the nicest courses in the state, when he found himself in a little bit of a predicament on the fifth hole -- his ball landed on top of an algae filled pond.

Now, a normal person would probably just take a drop. But then again, Leach isn't exactly normal. He wasn't about to give up attempting an eagle, so he took off his shoes and socks and stepped right in. As the muck squished between his toes, he also stripped off his shirt.

In his own words: "Craziest attempted shot for me....EVER....for Eagle from the Quarry #5 at the unbelievable Bay Harbor...Clothes off CANT BELIEVE I DID THIS:) Gotta love golf!!"

It was such a spectacle that golfers on the other side of the pond stopped their play to watch what was going on.
