Yes it's physically possible to somehow retrieve and remove the container and phones. It would also likely be absurdly expensive to do so for the gain.
It's likely cheaper, easier, and safer to simply keep picking them up off the beach as they wash ashore.
- lallysingh 8y agoCan they seal the container?
- nkrisc 8y agoMaybe, I don't have enough information to answer that. My guess is doing any work in a coastal cave that is only accessible at low tide is going to be expensive and dangerous.
- magduf 8y agoSeems like they should be able to get a team of volunteers together to go to the shipping container and remove the phones by hand so they don't keep going out into the ocean. How hard can this possibly be?
- nkrisc 8y agoBased on the description it sounds pretty dangerous for the limited value gained from doing so. The reporter said they could see the container, but that doesn't mean it's immediately accessible.
