Don't use your mobile phone on the toilet, looking down, it may fall, and never return. Until you close your eyes and try to grab it ....a powerful suction system.

A passenger on a French train had to be rescued by firemen after having his arm sucked down the on-board toilet.
The 26-year-old victim was trapped when he tried to fish out his mobile phone, which had fallen into the toilet bowl, and fell foul of the suction system.
The high-speed TGV train had to stop for two hours while firemen cut through the train's pipework.
The man was carried away by emergency services, with the toilet still attached to his arm.

Same problem In Chinese train, 27 year old man went out with toilet

A 27-year-old man was taking a train from Wuchang to Guangzhou in China when a little mishap caused him to drop his cell phone into the toilet bowl while using the toilet.

In a state of panic, he tried to fish it out but got his hand stuck instead. The attendants on board the train tried to free his hand from the compartment below for 3 hours but to no avail. It even got worse as his hand had now gotten deeper into the hole. As such, they had no choice but to stop at the next station to get some help.

SOLARLIFE, I like this story. It's good stuff. Ah, but did he retrieve his mobile (cell) phone? Enquiring minds need to know.

Christina 123, ...Ah, but did he retrieve his mobile (cell) phone? I could not find out, did he really want to use it again, the phone was sucked in the sewage tube already.
