“We searched everywhere and eventually found it thanks to the familiar Snapchat ‘ping’, but the battery soon died.” Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad Asked whether the phone could be retrieved, Rob said: “Unfortunately, there is no way we will be able to get the phone out of the ice now. If we were to dig it out, it would affect the structure of the ice so it’ll remain entombed for the next two months.

” The workman, who wishes to remain anonymous but was able to comment said: “My daughter wasn’t happy at the start, especially as she has just bought the new phone case, but after a short time – and the promise of a temporary replacement phone – she cooled off. "I have promised that if the phone doesn’t work once it has thawed out, I will get her new one.” The ice will remain frozen for the festive season and into 2025.
