held don't and so if the worst happens that's it or is it it's why I want to meet a person who was able to get her phone back and working you could drop it in a lake you never know her name is Fatima gatsi and her phone's Resurrection made waves through the tech media quite simply because of how long it's spent underwater Oh yeah 6 months and now so here's the phone it's a white iPhone 11 and as you can see it's perfectly in shape it looks almost as good as my new one but if you look at it like in certain spots like right here you can definitely see like some rusting that went on from like being underwater but otherwise it still charges perfectly fine and when I got it back initially um from clay I took it home the microphone wasn't working speaker was super muffed this story happened much like you'd expect on a nice day at the end of last summer with the enticing Prospect of fun on bumper boats very risky so we're out on the water and then I'm you know enjoying it taking pictures of the view and then this oncoming boat actually started spraying water onto me and then I like totally lost balance freaked out and then I dropped my phone in the water and it was and I I couldn't even believe it when I dropped it it hit me and I just like wanted to cry then but more than that I didn't have any backups or anything oh so you didn't have an iTunes or an iCloud backup at all no I actually didn't no yeah I did I noticed that for a while I was saying that it's not backing up but I and I was thinking I have to get to that but I didn't obviously ever consider that oh today is the day where I'm going to lose everything and I should have backed it up sooner so how did she get it back and working well it was a night in a shining wet suit his name is Clayton helenberg and he's an avid free diver it's definitely a hobby of mine just a swim but the more I was swimming and the more like sunglasses and phones and stuff I was Finding also the more trash we were finding oh a vape still got some juice in it but with the trash one can also find treasure and Clayton finds all sorts of things drones GoPros sunglasses and phones like these two Clayton found for us but before we

official IP67 rating thanks to the solid state home button and the courageous removal of the headphone jack I think it was a major help in this story the IP code is defined by the international electrotechnical commission standard number 60 5 to n oh look they turned on okay sorry if this is getting a little boring but you've probably seen the IP code on cell phone spec sheets it has a meaning the first number specifies the level of protection from solids and the second specifies protection from water so if a device has a rating of ip11 it means that it's protected against an object larger than 50 mm or a hand and it's protected against falling drops of water Yep this is at least ip1 well um sorry at IP67 it means that these are completely dust tight and protected from water Ingress at up to 1 M depth for 30 minutes apple hasn't even stopped there though any iPhone above the 10s is rated at I p68 which allows for depths of greater than 1 M so an iPhone 12 is rated up to 6 M 11 Pros are rated at 4 M and Fatima's 11 at 2 m which incidentally was about the depth her phone was at for all those months I guess then what's like the ratio of stuff in pretty decent condition versus oh it's pretty low it's pretty low so for let's say the 200 pairs of sunglasses I found I probably found 20 that were in usable condition I would say give or take and then whatever out for the ratio of like phones or Tech you find under water phone GoPros to start with GoPros always work I have not found an unworking GoPro yet iPhone 11s I found three of them all three of worked I have one working iPhone 10 but um I think it was S8 or S9 that briefly worked and then it decided to shut off again last year sent two big boxes to a guy in uh think he's in Ontario or something like that his channel is the phone Guru and he was able to fix a whole bunch of them actually plan to send him some more in the future when I get some better ones but got to wait for the summer to people drop some better looking phones okay so this iPhone 7 uh appears to be fine um but uh it's locked so I can't get in obviously uh and then this iPhone 10 well when I first plugged it in it was boot looping like crazy and I put it into restore mode and tried updating it cuz I don't want to delete anything that's on here um but I can't really get that to work uh and if I were to restore it completely then it means I wouldn't be able to get the person's data back to them so let's see if we can reach out to them uh where do I start yeah so what I do with phones um hers it just turned right on which was kind of cool but iPhone has a quite a good lock system so I'm not cracking that code anytime soon so what I do with all phones is I just take the SIM card out and I plug it into an old phone and I have a SIM card reader and that and it just shows me the phone number that the phone's registered to and I just just call the phone or text the phone and if somebody answer is awesome and she answered right away and that was cool that's how that works okay so I got this Android phone to do this uh so let's um switch the SIM cards here okay and take this one out huh uh it's an AT&T SIM card I wonder what that means put this in here okay it looks like we got service there's no number on here it's it's blank does that mean it's an old SIM card okay so it's an American phone maybe uh it's not connected to um an American Network and we live close to the Border let's see if that works blank darn it I was hoping to get that phone back okay um that didn't work so uh let's try the next SIM card okay it's got service if I try phoning this number it's ringing oh my goodness okay oh my gosh I got some text messages P the number off the the guy who sent message to this phone this is a lot harder than I was expecting I mean how did Clayton do it with Fatima's phone you got your new phone in December and then a couple months later what happened it was a normal day I was just chilling and then I got a text saying hi my name is Clay um did you lose a cell phone in Harrison Lake so it was just really really odd that someone was asking me about this thing that happened 6 months ago and knew exactly where I lost it I almost genuinely felt like someone's trying to I don't know lure me into somewhere but all it was was Clayton trying to return a phone back to their rightful owner hopefully with all its photos and memories intact I don't know like how to feel about receiving something that I was definitely heartbroken to lose and it was such a stressful time I just felt like a lot of memories or um pieces of a big time in my life were just kind of given back to me so I was just mostly grateful for that and then I was also thinking like now what do I do with the second phone so what does it feel like when you return a phone to someone it's awesome uh some of the reactions are just people are in total disbelief sometimes and yeah it's pretty cool too bad I won't be getting the same reactions myself I don't have a lot of Apple stuff at all like I used to have an iPod and I was about it but um yeah those iPhone 11s like apple makes a crazy waterproof phone it's very impressive honestly like 6 months around 10 ft of water it's just crazy two other ones at C us they were both charged when I found them the guys had lost them the day before but uh yeah I jumped in and I just clicked the button and it turned on underwater and there was a background of a dog on it and it was just super funny so I guess after this whole Oreal what's the big lesson you've learned back up your phone always get hooked on it I don't know I assumed cuz the last backup I did was like on iTunes and that was really lengthy but I didn't know that now you could just still just do it on the phone just go on iCloud and then just subscribe to it and then it backs up for you so definitely very easy very affordable process um and if you're ever out where you might drop your phone put it in a zip pocket just don't take it on the water it's reassuring to know that if your iPhone dunks into a shallow Beach or pool it has a chance of surviving but that doesn't mean you should be careless because despite there being people like Clayton around 6 months is still an awful long time to be without a phone thank you for joining us at this Mac Address from the shores of cultist Lake British Columbia now I'm curious if you yourself have had any Tales of an iPhone surviving or maybe not surviving a dunk underwater feel free to share them in the comments below"}
