Apple may be working to make its iPhones more waterproof than ever, but that doesn’t help much if your handset gets accidentally dropped into the ocean.

That’s what happened to Miami Heat dancer Teresa Cee, who recently lost her iPhone while diving with dolphins in the Bahamas. Fortunately, one friendly dolphin apparently outed itself as an Apple fan (or a Teressa Cee fan) by diving down to retrieve her handset.

Check out the video below.

Cee describes it as the “cutest thing ever.”  She does, however, point out that her iPhone is unlikely to work again after its dip — suggesting that she might not have the new iPhone 6s. As we noted earlier this week, the iPhone 6s is more water-resistant than its predecessors thanks to a new gasket-style “mystery adhesive” around the handset display.

That doesn’t mean readers should take that as a sign to drop their iPhones into the ocean on their next trip to the Bahamas, of course. At least not on porpoise. (I’m sorry!)
