[Spetsnaz77]

Did he not put the phone in a bowl of rice afterwards to dry it out?

A bowl the size of the Grand Canyon

It took three days to pump millions of litres of water out of the dam, after Rajesh Vishwas dropped the device while taking a selfie.
By the time it was found, the phone was too water-logged to work."

The food inspector dropped his Samsung phone, worth about $1,200 (100,000 rupees), into Kherkatta Dam, in the central Indian state of Chhattisgarh, on Sunday.

..he paid for a diesel pump to be brought in, Mr Vishwas said in a video statement quoted in Indian media.

The pump ran for several days, emptying out roughly two million litres (440,000 gallons) of water - reportedly enough to irrigate 6 sq km (600 hectares) of farmland."


He has been suspended from his job

Who could of used all that water anyway . Well worth the price for the chance at getting a phone back .

News article I read yesterday had the guy claiming the extra water was appreciated by the farmers. Critics contend he wantonly wasted water, in a region where water is scarce.

They dont have the cloud in India? Mr. Extra

He either had info to a large sum of money on that phone or he was fucking someone he wasn't supposed to. Too much effort otherwise.

Probably had video of himself in gay sex.

Probably had tranny porn on his phone. Someone should have told him its ok. There is a very famous MMA forum populated with people just like him that can't stop thinking about trannies.

…Says the guy bringing up trannies in a completely unrelated thread. Lol

Tbf this wouldn’t even fill an Olympic pool.

Surprisingly true. 660,000 gallons for that. Wouldn’t have guessed that myself honestly.

I bet he doesn't even have anything that bad. He is just cheap. My middle school homie Hassan would never buy drinks. He would drink the half and half from Auntie Anne's pretzel store when we went on school trips. Samples of pretzels and tiny container of half and half.

All roads lead to trannies at Sherdog.

This cat bangs dudes and had some incriminating photos and messages on his phone that's why he got it back. He wasn't paying for a pump to get a phone back that simply had a selfie on it.

Lol this. There was something on that phone that he couldn’t take the risk of someone finding and getting it to work again.
