As a manly man, it kind of pains me to post this.

Julio Jones Hires Dive Team to Locate $150K Earring Lost in Lake Lanier

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones is not hurting for money, but the two-time All-Pro pulled out all the stops to locate a $150,000 earring he lost while riding a jet ski.

Per Brendan Keefe and Christopher Buchanan of WXIA 11 Alive, Jones hired a dive team to scour Lake Lanier for the valuable piece of jewelry after it fell into the water when he hit a boat wake.

Unfortunately for Jones, it doesn't sound like the chances of his earring being found are very good.

"It's down in crevasses and nooks and crannies," salvage diver Richard Pickering told WXIA. "It's impossible—absolutely impossible."

Bobby Griffin, a member of the dive team, described the bottom of the lake as "pitch dark." There were also trees below the surface that made their quest even more difficult.

Even though Jones will probably be out the cost of the earring, he's going to earn $11.5 million in base salary this season, per Spotrac.

I like to think of myself as a law-abiding citizen, but if I ran into a person wearing a $150,000 earring, I would rob them immediately.

Unreal that it wasn't insured.

Didn't Bono (not Steve, the other one) have a yacht sink that wasn't insured many years ago? Rich folks be trippin'

I didn't say I'd kill them afterwards. At least, I didn't explicitly say that.

On a completely unrelated note, you said you wear earrings, right? What'd you pay for them?

It's been a long time so I don't remember exactly but somewhere between $20-30.. so don't get any ideas Von M- err, Rain Man.

Ok I am not up on this phenomenon of men wearing womens jewelry but if it was pierced how did it come off so easy without tearing the lobe? Was it clip on like a tie? If it is so easy to come off why even have a hole punch through your ear?

Be careful out there, Travis.
