This shit is stupid.
What the fuck was so important about this phone that has you diving into pools of shit?
I see what you did there!
That phone was shit anyway 
Who the fuck would wanna keep a shitty phone like that anyway?
That phone must be dank.
Also, sounds like Asians recover phones the same way they drive

I’m betting that “Did anybody get the phone?” were at least one person’s last words in this situation.
Gamgnam Style ringtone all muffled and echoing.
Megaman on NES
3 I think, or 2? Maybe we tried it on both.
2nd player can help, turning this into a 2 player game. Sort of. When falling into a bottomless pit player 2 can press jump and moon-walk-kinda gravity jump out of there. A few times, but not all the way out, as far as I remember. Like its a futile effort. You see Rock try to get out and show his face rising just above to come back on screen.
I have no idea how me and my brothers found that out. Probably during unnecessary gameshark plugged in, messing with it. Maybe we did get out of a pit and the music was gone from the game thinking it was a KO, after that sound too. So why would you want to play without one of the best parts of Megaman, the music. It probably didn’t load too much more of the next part of the stages either.
I’m not entirely sure what’s funny about people choking to death in filth, you fucking sociopaths.
it was a 2,000 dollar phone. I’d have likely waded in there too. I don’t mind having to take a shower, and I doubt the clothes i was wearing at the time would be worth anywhere near 2000 fucking dollars. considering it was his WIFE, it’s possible he’s the one who paid for the phone. of course he wanted his 2 grand back.
He just didn’t realize the danger that the gases posed. it could have happened to anyone, it’s not immediately obvious, nor is it common sense that there might not be oxygen even outside of the liquid.
and then oh yea, it’s so fucking funny how other people jumped in to try to save the lives of their loved ones. they should have just stood there pointing and laughing like you fine human beings.
The guy’s MOTHER panicked and went in to save her son. then the wife went in to try to save her two family members, again, because panic. then two other actual NON shitty people who’d come to help, not knowing the full situation, went in to try to help(they were not there at first, so they’d not have seen the others pass out, they may have assumed they fell)
The only thing that smells worse than a cesspool of shit is the shitty fucking people in this thread.
Probably the saddest part. They could have been saved.
(I thought I’d appreciate Million’s commentary on something scatological until now. Hunh.)
I have to admit, I was actually expecting this to have taken place in Florida or something given the lack of locus in the thread title. SoVi3t, must you be so deceptive?
This is what’s funny about this situation: it’s a phone. No matter how overpriced it is, there’s no reason to risk your health or life for any material object unless it’s vital to saving your life or someone else’s life, which this one wasn’t. Once it dropped into a cesspool or some other dangerous place, it would be wise to consider it gone if you can’t actually see it.
Even if they obviously didn’t foresee the actually pretty obvious issues with wading into a cesspool oxygen-wise and stench-wise, why the hell would you risk your health wading around in such a diseased environment for a piece of replaceable electronic? Like, how much disease are you willing to risk just because you can’t make sensible buying purchases? I know there aren’t that many women in China compared to men in most places, but gods, man’s desperation truly knows no bounds.
No one’s really laughing at the “tragedy” of this just because these people died, but more we’re laughing at the way these people died being really stupid and absurd while also completely avoidable. It’s not like we’re laughing at people who died in a bombing or a house fire they were trapped in or something.
You’re equally laughable for a) agreeing that this was a wise choice of action that you would also partake in if given the chance–feel free–and b) trying to act like some beacon of shining, shaming morality on the Internet of all places. I mean, feel free to not laugh, but you’re not changing anyone’s mind by coming off as judgmental and labeling people sociopaths.
Regardless, try to not ram your face into the top of the door on your way out given you’re basically glued to your high horse even though no one mandated you come in here in the first place, much less comment.
Never mind the moral grandstanding shit, motherfucker couldn’t even take the 10 seconds it takes to google the exchange rate and work out that 2500HKD is around 310USD.
That’s still a lot, but it ain’t an amount worth swimming in shit for, even if you only think you’re going to catch something rather than suffocate down there.
Dude? PRETTY sure everyone who died started out “non-shitty”, but through a series of unfortunate events and REALLY poor decision-making skills…
And if you’re that upset, there’s the door. Come back when the bleeding stops. Ain’t our fault the chinese are insanely materialistic.
Why has no one yet asked HOW THE FUCK BIG IS THIS TOILET??!! 
:tup:
Cuz we see it in the first post. It’s that thing the old dude is standing beside. You squat or stand at the edge, fire off a shot, then get gone…or in this case, get got multiple times, like Pac-Man ghosts. Safety, China style.
it’s 2000 dollars. You have no idea what these people’s economic situation is. unless they’re rich, that’s a whole lot of fucking money.
and if you don’t produce the actual phone, even if you have insurance they won’t cover it. you have to prove it’s actually damaged/unusable.
thus likely why he went in to get it. and again, he had no reason to think his life was at risk. the majority of people wouldn’t have guess that the gasses would have pushed all the air out of the space and instantly suffocate you. again, it’s weighing the cost of a shower+the clothes you’re wearing compared to 2000 bucks. pretty obvious which one is cheaper.
Was there still the risk of getting sick? yes, but it’s by no means guaranteed, as long as you’re being careful.
Hell, for all we know the dude put on protective clothing first. they never said he did a swan dive into raw sewage, just that he went in after the phone after his wife told him she dropped it.
And that’s just him. the second person into the pit was the man’s mother, who panicked when she saw her son suffocating in filth and jumped in. not incredibly smart, but it’s understandable.
then the wife went in, again because she was panicking because her family was dying in front of her. keep in mind its not like they just slowly went in one by one, it likely happened within SECONDS of each other, there wasn’t like a period of time were they just sat there debating to do it or not. it was a split second decision.
The next people to come were neighbors that the father brought. they were not there to see how it started, so they;d not know that the people passed out from the lack of oxygen and gasses. to them it’d look like they were drowning or something.
Again, it’s unfortunate, but it’s more emotion/concern overcoming fear, than sheer stupidity. they were more worried about other people than themselves.
yea, what a bunch of dumb assholes, right?
And I never held myself up on any sort of pedestal. I simply voiced my opinion on people talking shit about a bunch of people who got hurt trying to help somebody else.
I called it like I saw it. you can call me a self-righteous prick if you want, but I was just being honest about what went through my mind as I read the thread.
