A walk can leave you drained.

Nobody knows it better than 16-year-old Ella Birchenough, who found herself stuck in a storm drain in Dover, England while trying to fetch her cell phone. She got herself so stuck that firefighters had to respond and lift her out.

Send the bill for this "rescue" and let her babysit for a few years to pay it off.
