*The episode is still available on YouTube to watch as a woman in a blue Amphicar repeatedly asks people fishing from a launch on the Missouri river north of St. Louis how to get to East Alton, Illinois, (which is across the river) then plunges into the water with stunned reactions captured on hidden camera. The man on the dock in khakis is her accomplice and has a hidden microphone so we can see and hear what the reaction is.
*As I watched the segment, I thought the woman looked very much like Grace Clinger from her Amphicar dealership in Loveland, CO called Sweetheart Motors. I have attached a copy of the pictures of her and this woman so you can see the striking resemblance. She also is very confident behind the wheel of the Amphicar in the water, so has some experience with the car in my estimation.
