What did I do tonight? Oh ya know, dropped my phone off balcony to the unit below. Watchin' notifications roll in from afar is devastating. pic.twitter.com/o9lR3iqehc

In a nightmarish situation, a woman accidentally dropped her phone on her neighbor's balcony and had no way of retrieving it. She knocked on their door but got no response.
Panicked, she turned to Twitter and hilariously explained the situation, asking for help and constantly updating followers on what was going on.
Update: I threw a note with another phone number to contact, it landed right on their table. Here's hoping 🤞
