This video comes from YouTube user KhenaKara.  He apparently took his brand new iPhone 3G[s] on vacation with him and was taking video poolside when the unthinkable happens; his iPhone decided it wanted to take a dip.  Many have cried foul on this, seeing that tons of iPhones have died from much less water contact.

KhenaKara explains that he did have a rubber case on the phone.  Many commenters pointed out that you can see a camera strap so he uploaded a video of the case and strap.  He explains that he has the strap wrapped on the rubber case and clearly shows how in the case video.

If this is a fake, it is a pretty good one.  After watching I have the feeling that this might be true.  I implore that you do not try to re-create this yourself.  The iPhone is not waterproof; this may be the .1% that will survive a skinny dip like this.
