Apple iPhone works after getting wet in the Pacific Ocean and saves 8 lives
28

A tweet sent out by NBC's Today Show on Friday (via Apple Insider) includes a video about a woman named Rachel Neal, who is a special assistant to the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). Neal, along with her boyfriend and some others, had chartered a boat to take them to an island off the coast of Okinawa. But on the way back, they encountered high seas that capsized their boat. All eight passengers donned life jackets and jumped overboard.
Even with an IP rating, salt water is generally not good for electronic devices, which makes Rachel's experience unusual. She says that she is still using the same iPhone as her daily driver today. You can check out the clip directly below.
