    Technically I didn't.
    My daughter was 2

    I blamed it on her.

    Toilet, never. Swimming pool, once, last year. Revive with a store-bought emergency kit, but speaker was shorted out (e.g. no speakerphone, ringer)

    Never. I don't play with phone while leaving a deuce. That's serious business.

    I have never done this. I went one step further and threw it into a pond (and then stripped half naked in the park on a cold winters day in December to try and retrieve it)..... I'm so glad I got that off my chest ...

    No, I haven't yet. I've been pretty lucky when it comes to phones.

    I never have because I always take my phone out of my pocket before I go near the toilet for just this reason.

    Never my phone... But plenty of other random things: Car keys, wallet, pony tail holder... I did drop my old cell into the bath tub when bathing my son, and grabbed about a minute it after noticing it swimming in there, and it still worked! I was impressed!

    Twice. It survived the first time, not the second.

    Not in the toilet, because I never have the phone in the bathroom with me (why would I?)

    But in the dishwater in the kitchen sink......guilty. :ohwell:

    toilet no. I have however dropped it in a baseball stadium on to cement, into a bowl of gravy, in too many cake batter and other things while reading recipes, I've broken my phone a lot but never in a toilet.

    Yep. To the very first iPhone. Put it in rice and it eventually worked. Whew.
