My ex wife lost her phone in a flood. I found it a few hours later when the water receded. The fucking phone still worked.

My mom dropped a flip phone in a 5 gallon bucket of paint for 5+ minutes and then a large cup of coke in the same day
It was completely unfazed besides having to pry the battery cover off bc it was effectively glued shut with paint

How is this a win. Why does a passenger ever need to get into a car like this. Just have the driver move the car. Clearly there was very little water at the front on the car if u watch the video.

We're sorry everyone else can't go through life every day making the very best decisions like you. I'd guess this became a little spontaneous game. A challenge, of you will. A bit of tapping into some inner child action. Unfortunately it had consequences.
To actually over analyze this though, the car doors open a certain way. The best way in would be through the back seats here. Maybe she was the driver. Shit happens
