If you were about to lose hundreds of dollars in tricked out gadgetry, you’d probably dive into a lake to save it too.

YouTuber Zwier Spanjer took his new drone out for its first flight recently, and he wasn’t about to let a low battery and several feet of freezing water make it his last.

In a video posted online, the pilot of the new DJI Phantom 2 made a dramatic last-minute rescue just seconds before the drone crashed into several feet of water, and sacrificed his dry clothes and comfortable body temperature to do it.
