T-Mobile is at it again, unboxing a waterproof phone under water, as the Almighty intended. The added plot twist, however, is that this time it's the fresh-out-of-the-oven Galaxy S8, your next best thing, and the unboxing is done in a shark cage.

Is it Jaws 2 being filmed on an S8? Does the T-Mobile guy imply that the phone is fast and furious as a shark, and is there a selfie? Check it out, some of that footage is straight out of Samsung's new S8.
