Fiction June, 21, 2025

The people living near the French coasts used to hunt out the classic orange phones. They have been wondering about its source for years. Some of them might have called it a miracle. They tried hard to reach out to its roots but in vain. But recently, the beach cleaners have achieved the feat and had given a possible and suitable explanation of the enigmatic element.

According to him, the classic phones belonged to a shipping container. The container might have spilt at sea. But they could not expatiate more on its whereabouts. A local soul came up to claim that he had discovered a shipping container. His exploration dated back to the time after a storm in the 1980s. The cleaners believed his assertions and decided to follow.

They launched themselves on the mission to hunt for it. After toiling hard in their search operation, the souls were able to find one obscured in a partially submerged cave. Claire Simonin- the head of beach cleaners Ar Viltansou (in Brittany) shared that the local man gave them specification of its location. But that was very dangerous to access. They had found the submerged cave which was around 100 feet deep.

The team went to its bottom and discovered the lost dilapidated container. Not just the container but they also recovered some 23 handsets with complete electronic setup. They were under the boulders which were in front of the cave. It was a big achievement on their part. Finally, the mystery of the orange gadgets was unravelled.

After the completion of the mission, they had decided to continue to collect the Garfield phones from the beaches. But they wanted to remain alert to grab the other queer things that may wash up on the coast.

However, the gang of the cleaners was not acquainted with the other details of the remnants of the container. They could not trace the genesis of the queer and precarious developments that had led to the spilling of the container. They had no idea how the container got submerged and got locked into the cave.

Fabien Boileau-the director of Iroise Marine Nature Park in Finistere took on this facet of the discovery. He said that they had no idea what had happened at that time. They were not familiar with these kinds of facts. Also, he shared that they did not know if several other containers had too fallen into the water or not.

The discovery is indeed a big triumph in this domain. It has provided some golden revelry for people to cherish for the rest of their lives.
