Today, I fell in a river with a £700 camera, a £200 lens, and an iPhone while trying to rescue a 50 pence ball for my dog. FML

That sucks but your heart was in the right place. You know how much your doggie loves his ball.

You don't take that stuff to a river. Keep it locked in your car. You just voided your warranty with Apple, but maybe you can get your camera and lens replaced? FYL

yay first! well you're an idiot!

hi mom and dad and hey there snickerdoodles!!!

OP, YDI for being an idiot, always leave the electronics at home or in your car when you go on boat, and why the **** you wanted to save a little ball that cost that little?

Wow, the firsties never learn. I would think it was be the dog's job to retrieve things. I might've done the same thing in your place. I hate to lose things and the adrenaline of the moment carries you away. Your dog is rather grateful though. I really hope you have a warranty that covers that. FYL

Most warranties don't cover water damage.

lol bear flu got corrected that happens to me all the time. oh and ydi for being an idiot op.

ydi dumbass. seriously??? was it worth it?? I think not

@69 where would he put said things in his pocket? Is the dog going to watch them? I wouldn't trust that dog. haha. fyl op. Your camera is toast but in a few days see if it'll turn back on. waterlogged cameras take really cool photos.

Oh yeah, about the iPhone take this as an opportunity to get a droid!

81- lol I have never understood how people just drop their $100 items, had this iPod touch for 2 years and I've never dropped while using it every day

@117 lmao I was changing a song and it slipped out of my hand and the headphones unplugged so it fell in a puddle haha i had a 32 gig, than I bought another one and it broke somehow I don't even know how I broke the little board thing in it. butt my iPhone is always in my pocket when I'm near any disasters waiting to happen hahaha

Ajjas, u should change ur dp it's creeping the hell out of me. a scary creep nerdy dude sticking out his tongue is ******* disturbing.

OMG!!! THATS JUST HORRIBLE! HEAd onn! Hope you gett it back with insurance or Warranty? :))

ehh most warranties I know won't honor water damage but it's worth a try... ...but seriously, it's not like your fall was unexpected unless you capsized a boat or something... standing next to water reaching over water usually means there is a chance of getting wet...

My brother spent a couple grand on a camera and warranty, and water damage was excluded from it.

Yeah warranty doesnt cover water damage... but once, my ipod nano screen filled with water because of rain. I went to the store and just told them it stopped working haha. They exchanged it for an "opened-box" ipod. So you could give it a try!

OP is a man though. I'm pretty sure my own 'I don't know what happened, it just stopped working' routine (read: I accidently put it through a 40 degree wash) only worked cause I batted my eyes and wore a see through top.

Yeah. You got raped by a bouncy ball. In the booty hole. Hard. And not just any hard; I mean Rosie O'Donald's-penis-when-she-watches-vollyball hard.

Ajjas013 6

Normally I would ask how you know that, but this time I think I'll just stare in a fascinating awe at the level of depth of knowledge your comment has.

I'm sorry, but I can't stand your picture...the level of faggotry...

Op ever heard of insurance? Next time try to invest for those expensive toys.

Ofcourse he would take his phhone so he could get calls in case of emergancies and everthink that he was taking pics of the river?He might have been bending. down to grab the ball and fell. He said FELL not jumped. But really, FYL.

wow bro, that sucks how much is that in euros or whatever. but that sucks

yeah dude switch to dollars for USA's sake

No. Translate it yourself. But this was a true FML. Whoever said British people eat ****, go eat some McDonalds, lard ass.

I fight mma idiot I don't cant mcdolalds

but I don't can't spell right nither

Ignorant kiddos. Not everybody is American.

Hang on! Dfos actually has a brilliant idea; convert your £ to $ then you'll have twice as much money and can replace your things with a nice little profit! BTW, I LOLd at 122. Self-deprecation FTW

Yeah. Every country has their fair share of obnoxious beings.

Damn Brits witht their rubbish teeth and their tea and scones! Ok, I'm English :(

Why just obnoxious Americans? Are you saying America is the only country that has some mentally challenged 10 year olds?

Ajjas013 6

No, we also have some obnoxious 11 year olds.
