Man drops cell phone in train toilet, jams arm

maybe it was like the Simpons episode when Homer got his arm stuck in a vending machine.

"let go of the candy bar Homer"

😀
 
i swear to god, cnn might as well call itself the onion with all the stupidass stories they post these days.

still funny tho 😀
 
You've got to be pretty hardcore to put a phone fished out of a toilet (a public one from a train no less) right next to your face afterwards even if you did manage to somehow clean it and still have it work afterwards.

Reminds of of the old Jack Handy quote:

If you ever drop your keys into a river of molten lava, let'em go, because, man, they're gone.
--Jack Handy Deep Thoughts
 
"The toilets are made of aluminum so I imagine he was down on hands and knees with his shirt rolled up and hand and arm down inside, trying to flush out his cell phone," said Jim Cameron of the Connecticut Metro-North commuter council.
what does aluminum construction have to do with anything?
 
That's disgusting. He put his hand on a surface that thousands of people's sh!t has touched. NASTY.
 
lol, that'll be great for his friends to tease him about for a while...assuming he has friends. I really don't know if I'd stick my arm down a public toilet, especially if I couldn't easily see/grab it...it's dead anyway. (or at least my phone would be)

I was thinking the same thing, sounds like jimmy huffed a bit too much paint as a child.
 
Cost of cell phone : $100
Holding up thousands for hours : $100,000
Having your idocy revealed to the nation : Priceless

Cheers ElFenix :beer:
 
If I were in that situation, I'd probably just kiss the phone goodbye (proverbially speaking). I don't think I'd want it back after it was floating a chemical holding tank.
