A video of the hilarious incident shows a man on a boat, with a fish in his hand. Evidently happy with the catch, the man takes several selfies with the fish from different angles. However, instead of throwing the fish back into the water, the man threw his mobile phone instead. As soon as he tossed the phone into the water, he realized what he had done. He even bends over to locate his phone in the water.
The video was posted on Twitter by Tansu Yegen, who often posts hilarious videos.
