I would be surprised, but not shaken up. I've heard, but not seen myself, of muskrats out here that will come up your hole and scare the crap outta you while your fishing in a hut.....

At least it was a gloved hand, if it would've been a limp bare one the story would be different!

That would have been a surprise for sure. Buckhunter said it best though.

Considering I'm never on the ice without a few beers, I think this would have caused a bladder failure. About guaranteed.

I've had muskrats jump through my jig-hole[between my feet] in my one man flip-over,run around at 65mph. and quickly find their exit-the same hole-each time, a near heart-attack inducing few seconds. But a hand through the hole-would have been a "call the coroner, we've got a dead, frozen guy.." Great story!

The diver reached up through the hole?
Hell, I would have handed him a beer...

It is a good thing the divers air line or regulator didn't get snagged. Getting hung up on underwater obstructions is a diver's nightmare.
I'm intrigued that the ice fishermen had never seen a Diver Down flag before, although I think it was an unlikely enough situation that the Anglers just might not have comprehended that anybody would be insane enough to want to scuba dive in midwinter, under the ice!

I would probably be scared at first but definitely have a good laugh after. Reminds me of an old Three Stooges Episode when Curly catches Moe through the ice though. "That fish looks like Moe! It IS Moe!!!" Nothing beats a classic!
