Many tourists keep backup cash and travel documents in a waist-pack just for that contingency.
To expand on the original scenario, last year my primary phone was soaked in freak torrential rain and shut-off. Thankfully I had loaded all my travel docs, password safe and maps to a backup tablet and I was able to call into a service station and arrange my affairs over their wifi. It took two days for my phone to dry out.
Always, always take a backup when away from home.

You'd know your password from memory? You'd trust his phone? Would you use banking apps on his phone too?
