Taking "she'll be right, mate" too far:
The BBC reports that a man got stuck in a Brisbane stormwater drain on Saturday while attempting to rescue his phone.
Firefighters came to the rescue on Monday, called in by a guy who'd also offered help ON THE SUNDAY but was turned down.
I feel like once you have spent a day - and for that matter, a night - down the drain, the threshold for accepting help has probably been met.
But apparently opinions vary.
