I bet that title caught your eye didn’t it?
That title is a rollercoaster from starting to the end of it and the story itself is a whole roller coaster ride and just goes to show that situation can go from 0-100 real quick.
The woman, who was not named, was at the top of Mount Walker in the Olympic National Forest, northwest of Seattle, Washington State, when the incident occurred near a car park. She had been using her phone when it suddenly fell into a pit toilet on the very summit, according to sources.
Brinnon Fire Department Chief Tim Manly said the woman, aged in her 40s, managed to take the toilet seat off and tried using a dog leash to try and get the phone. When this didn’t work, she used the leash to tie herself to the toilet as she reached for it, but this resulted in her falling in headfirst.
Mr Manly shares
“That didn’t work very well and in she went.”
You think?!
He says the woman tried to climb out for close to 10 to 15 minutes but gave up and eventually called 911 after being reunited with her phone down the toilet. Firefighters passed her blocks to stand on to reach a harness when they arrived and pulled her out of the vault. The rescuers went on to say she was unaffected by the ordeal. After being hosed down, the department said she was “strongly encouraged to seek medical attention after being exposed to human waste, but she only wanted to leave”.
Mr Manly added: “I’ve been doing this for 40 years, and that was a first.”
