Yeah I know poopy story but just be glad your not the teen. 15 yr old teenager Alexa Longueira walking along the streets in New York totally not paying attention because while she was texting falls into a open manhole - yep right into raw sewage.

Yeah as you can image she was shocked. Part of the problem is that the manhole was left uncovered, no safety cones. She was reported as saying it was "really gross... shocking and scary."

You can read more about it here:

Texting teen falls into open manhole

this is the part of the article that makes you think:

Nonetheless, observers are harshly divided over who's to blame here. The DEP is certainly at fault for failing to secure the manhole, but to what extent should the girl be held accountable for failure to be aware of her surroundings? If she'd stepped into traffic and been hit by a car, would her reaction (that is: anger and a potential lawsuit) be any different?

So read the story and tell us what you think?
