A gentleman whose name is not disclosed is cracking lots of ribs on social media after a video of him fruitlessly attempting to prove he was a big guy surfaced.
In the footage that is fast going viral, the gentleman amidst cheers from his friends boldly dipped his android phone in water that contained ice to show the crowd that it was waterproof.
However, shortly after the phone got in contact with water, the backlight went off and all attempts made by the gentleman to get it working again proved futile.
See the video below:
Realizing what had happened, the gentleman faked a smile to make it look as though everything was still under control but that even cracked the viewers up the more.

One sticker that seems to have come in handy for a lot of people is the meme of a young boy crying. The sticker has gone so viral that the person behind it has finally spoken up and explained what led to his tears on that day.
The young man who is a student of Unilorin identified simply as Oladee said that he cried on that day because he used his grandmother’s money to play a betting game which he eventually lost.
