You realise the world isn't a totally great place, when you start admiring the life of Reginald Perrin.

Sir Randolph Fiennes threw his hand into the freezing cold water of the arctic, to retrieve his sleigh which fell through the ice. He lost his fingers due to the frostbite. I have done the same - Except for "cold water" = "hot ramen noodles", sleigh = "iPhone 12" + "slightly burned" over frostbite.
