Hilarious prank... but as funny as it is, I'd be sueing!

Now, while this is absolutely hilarious, I know that I'd be carrying my cell phone on me. Which means, absolutely FURIOUS results. I'd instantly lose my phone book, emails, addresses, text messages with important info... I'd be getting a big fat payday when I sue their asses off.


But THEN I'd laugh when the video aired on TV!

The moral is, if there are three or more cameras covering a certain spot from various angles, something's probably up.

They wouldn't have to worry about falling in holes if they were at home playing bass instead!

That's about my summation. I find it hard to get amusement out of other peoples' misfortune and discomfort. And if I had my $450 Palm Treo on me and it got wet, I would be on the freakin' furious until I got reimbursed.
