The things people go through.
Now cell phones kill. I remember when a platoon sgt. lost his lucky zippo in a field latrine and he dug it out….GAG....GAG.
Three Die Retrieving Phone from Latrine Fri Mar 14, 7:46 AM ET Add Oddly Enough - Reuters to My Yahoo! NAIROBI (Reuters) - Three Kenyans died trying to retrieve a mobile phone that slipped down an open-pit latrine while its owner answered a call of nature, a newspaper reported on Friday. Anxious to recover her phone, the owner in the coastal town of Mombasa offered 1,000 shillings ($13.09) to anyone who would recover it, the Daily Nation said. Well over half the Kenyan population of 30 million people lives on less than $1 a day. The first to try -- a 30-year-old radio technician -- failed to resurface after disappearing down a ladder into the latrine. His friend went after him but slipped and fell. The third casualty, trying to rescue the others, was hauled out of the pit by neighbors after he inhaled the fumes and lost consciousness. The man was rushed to hospital but died on the way. "The fumes inside must be extremely poisonous considering the short time it was taking to disable the retrievers," acting Mombasa police chief Peter Njenga was reported as saying. The Daily Nation said police prevented a fourth man from climbing into the latrine and the search for the phone was eventually abandoned. |

Ehhh...
I love my cell phone, but if it was to go down a latrine, it would be considered lost. Excuse me now while I go vomit |

What was the person doing talking on the cell in the latrine in the first place though? Cell phones are ruining society. Everyone is more connected and blah-blah-blah, but people are so rude on them. I can't stand it when people answer them in a resturant. Or even worse, a movie theatre. Where do these people get off? The worst is the library on my campus here. Honestly people, since when do make noise, let alone carry on a conversation IN A LIBRARY! I could rant long and hard about this, it really pisses me off...
Oooh. 199 posts... |

Howdy All,
One of the "Rent-a-cops" at work bumped against something in the port-a-john and dropped the hand-held radio that was on his belt into the pit He dug it out He didn't die!¡ But sure wished he had after I harrassed him about it I have a cell phone that I use just for calling out so it is off except at that time.

This reminds me of a Jackass episode when Johnny Knoxville locked himself in a spot-a-pot, then had it turned upside down. Absolutely the nastiest thing I've ever seen, but also pretty damn hilarious when it's someone else! Jackass may be incredibly juvenile, but I still find it to always be a gut-buster.
