Man Gets Arm Stuck in Toilet Trying to Retrieve Dropped Cell Phone



A man in Jiangsu Province, China, got stuck in a toilet when he dropped his phone inside and tried to get it back:

When rescue workers arrived on the scene in Jiangsu province in eastern China, they found the man crouched over the toilet in a bathroom stall, his entire arm submerged up to the shoulder in the drain.

Workers broke the porcelain bowl with crowbars and hammered the pipes, taking care not to injure the man, CCTV reported.

After 10 minutes of work, the man was able to slowly remove his cut and bruised arm from the bowl and retrieve his waterlogged phone.

There was a similar incident a few weeks ago - a young woman who spent several hours in that position, until she passed out from the fumes.

One could make a joke about dropping a phone down a Chinese toilet, then a few hours later needing to do so again, but such a thing would be crass.
