Michael Guntrum, from Knox, Pennsylvania had dropped his iPhone into an icy lake last year in March. He has now discovered that his phone has actually been found and it’s working normally! (It’s absolutely Steve Job’s magic, by the way)
He had lost his iPhone 4 in the Kyle Lake in March 2015 while being out ice fishing with his friends. Noticeably, his phone was found when the lake was drained earlier this year.
Daniel Kalgren, a mechanical engineer, said he was using a metal detector to hunt for treasure when he found the iPhone.
‘I took the phone home, cleaned it, and put it in rice – just out of curiosity to see if it would still work.
‘I was able to turn it on and use it to look up his number. He knows I have it now, and I’m going to mail it to him.’ He told Buzzfeed.
Guntrum had reported that his phone had slipped from his lap and fell into a hole in the ice whilst he was reeling a catch from the water.
He also took to Facebook last year to announce losing his phone in the lake, last year in March.
‘Lost my phone today. so if you want me to have your # [number] send it to me. Long story short. ice fishing, + hole in ice = iphone at bottom of lake.’ He had posted on Facebook.
Well, it’s amazing how the phone survived in spite of being in the icy lake for the past one year. All hail Steve Jobs!
